[Bug 1493722] Re: [Media services] Volume up/down long press should skip to next/previous track

 

I really think the main issue (IMO) is that holding the volume up button
allows the volume to rapidly increase. Could someone determine if a bug
exists for this? If not, could someone please file one?

  [Media services] Volume up/down long press should skip to

Bug description:
  A handy feature of music players is the ability to quickly skip tracks
  by long-pressing the volume buttons. This allows users to control
  their music without having to take the device out of their pocket,
  turn its screen on, unlock it, go to the music app and press "Next".

  As of now, when I long press the volume button, it rapidly increases
  the volume, which is not very nice to my ears ;-)

  Is it possible to control the music app this way on Ubuntu phone?

  Music app version tested: 2.2.910 (2015-09-03)
  Device: Meizu MX 4
  System info: Ubuntu 15.04 (r4)
