hey mister chimpance there is a entry or a way to edit the frodo.ini that let me key playing my mp3's after I close an app..... let said dragonbtv's tv plugin.

I want frodo to resume and "play" no to remain pause like when you open settings frodo pause the music and when you close settings resumes playing....

I try in setting 1 and 2 and I looked on frodo.ini file but I don't see to find anything related to this.

thanks guys for you help.

If the app is external, I don't have any way of knowing it's done.

In this case is there any way to keep playing the music when you enter menu or settings? I have this problem (music stops when i enter menu or settings) only with the last version.

it would own if you could get it to play while using settings, and as far as knowing its done? :-P check pids

i could show you how todo that, or run the program in a thread

there are many ways todo that

I start a new process in Mobilus using the application executable, and have full control over that process and its lifecycle. I can close that application, and know when its been closed. All depends how you implement the embedding.

Thanatos, PID is short for "Process ID", of which every running application has one. Its a commonly used term under linux, but applicable to windows as well. What hes saying is execute the application, get its Process ID, and then check in intervals to see if that process is still running or not. Its a polling approach.
