Lock-Screen Player

[hdk]

Well done! I really like this player. Great usability, I like that you can browse by Genre -> Artist -> Album. Good that you read the library yourself and don’t depend on the Android Media Scanner… This is the best music player I’ve found for android. And I’ve tried quite a few!

BUT the one thing that keeps me from actually using (and buying) it is the missing Lock-Screen Player! :-( I hear music in the car most of the time. There it’s not very handy to unlock the player (and eventually even bring GMMP to the front) just to pause it or skip a song.

I noticed it’s not on the Roadmap for 1.1. Any idea when I might expect it? A month, 3 month, a year?

(Not much more than the Lockscreen Player is missing in GMMP to make it the perfect MP3 Player for me. So please excuse my impatience :-))

it'll be right after 1.1. I'll investigate how difficult implementing the lockscreen is and if it is actually fairly easy i'll throw it in with 1.1

hey what do you know its not to hard at all.. essentially I can make the now playing screen show over top of the lockscreen
