[HELP] listening for callback from videoPlayer plugin?

[Justin Lange]

Hey Folks,

I'm using the videoPlayer plugin
(https://github.com/phonegap/phonegap-plugins/tree/master/Android/VideoPlayer)
to play video from PhoneGap. Even though it makes a call to an
external app, my phoneGap app is still running in the background, so
any accelerometer triggers are still going on -- sounds play, other
videos will get launched -- etc -- not good. What I want is to STOP
listening for accelerometer while the video is playing, and START
listening again when the video stops.

It should be notes that after a video is done playing, we
automatically return to our PhoneGap app -- great! But I can't figure
out how to use this return to get the accelerometer to start listening
again.

When I call my playVideo() function, I can just write:
navigator.accelerometer.clearWatch(watchID);

But where do I put watchID =
navigator.accelerometer.watchAcceleration(onSuccess, onError,
options)????

Thanks,
Justin

Hmm, tricky one. 

Short of digging into the plugin and adding a callback, could you use the pause and resume functions in the PhoneGap api? -  http://docs.phonegap.com/en/1.5.0/phonegap_events_events.md.html#Events
