Apparently Songbird also has the command line controls built in. I
couldn't get that plugin to work on linux, but the command line
options listed in this bug report work:
http://bugzilla.songbirdnest.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2788
Here's the list of options:
playback.volumeup
playback.volumedown
playback.nexttrack
playback.previoustrack
playback.playpause
playback.pause
playback.stop
So for example to play a song, this is the command that would be
issued:
./songbird --hotkey=playback.playpause
Does anyone have a guide to writing gnome-do plugins or anything. I
don't do much programming myself, but if this is fairly easy to do, I
wouldn't mind taking a swing at it, but I don't really know where to
start.
Thanks!
