[Bug 752033] Re: Music player should not show its main window if it launches when play button is pressed

 

Xavier, I very much agree. We just need one additional thing in .desktop
files: Implements.

Then we could have Implements=org.freedesktop.MediaPlayer, which entails
having the actions you're suggestions (don't even need to be GActions,
org.freedesktop.Application has an ActivateAction as well).

I'm planning to write this up at some point and suggest it on the next
freedesktop summit.

Title:
  Music player should not show its main window if it launches when play
  button is pressed

Status in Sound Menu:
  Triaged
Status in “indicator-sound” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: indicator-sound

  When my music player is not running, the sound menu still keeps its
  music controls to keep things tidy. However, when I press the Play
  button, the player's main window opens! This is improper, because it
  is inconsistent with pressing Play or Pause from the menu when the
  player is already running and it is inconsistent with our presentation
  of the music player as a service. A user pressing this button should
  not expect the player's main window to appear.
