mp3 AND WMA(!) media player or proper screen "turn-off" app

Hey Guys
various people recommended to me the GSPlayer however, the version I have doesn't seem to support WMA, is there a version that does or is this correct?
If GSPlayer doesn't support WMA, can anyone recommend a player that;
a - plays MP3
b - plays WMA
c - turns the screen off where only a pre-programmed key/combo will turn it back on
Failing that, im happy to use WMP but i need a screen blanking app to support it. I've tried a couple but they seems to come back to life pressing almost any key - not much use when the phones in my pocket. I need a screen blanker where it will only come back on with the power button or I can program a key/key combo, any suggestions?
Thanks loads guys!

Pocket Windows Mediaplayer has that option. Go to the player (not the library) Menu>options>Buttons (or whatever the tab on the far right is called in English) and if you scroll all the way to the bottom there is the Screen on/off option. TCPMP also has this feature.
If this isn't what you are looking for you can also install psShutXP, this comes with the program Display Switch, which you can link to a certain button with a button-configuration tool.
Grtz.

well stone me! So it does, thanks very much WMP is fine for my purposes.

Keyboard Shortcuts at VDA GPS (Toshiba G710)

Hi,
I always wondered whether I can have some keyboard shortcuts on the VDA/G710 in order for instance to open the video player by pressing "V" or the multimedia player by pressing "M" and so forth?
Is there any application which allows customization of the device's keyboard?
Thanks guys.

Windows media player bigger icons?

Hi
Did a search and couldnt find anything on this. Is there a way to make wmp more finger friendly. I dont want to change the player but is there a way to make for example the library view menu icons larger as to select "All Music" "Artist" etc options are quite difficult with fingers and dont want to have to use the stylus all the time. Same for all other sub menus within those like album names and song titles if they were abit larger it would be so much better for navigating!
Thanks!

+1. WM 6.5 modified the menu's so navigating b/w the player and the library is fine now, but the library list is still very small to use.
Maybe there's a registry key to change the size of the font?

hmm not ready to try 6.5 yet so yer if something could be ported over?
Also I tried installing some skins for media player but they didnt work windows media player didnt find them for some reason so then i tried to delete them from the folder and i accidently deleted the default skin. So i would appreciate it if someone could send me the default skin and also why wouldnt the skins work in the first place? I used a cab which stuck them straight in the windows media folder?!

[REQ] Physical buttons to control music player (Sense only)

Hi there. I'm trying to map the three central hardware keys of my Leo so that I can use to control the Sense music player. Actually, I already use a third-party software to remap my keys, namely AEBPlus (see my thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=603186) but I can also use manual renamed shortcuts (long_send.lnk etc.).
Anyway, all I need is three little .exe files to perform only the three basic actions: play/pause, next track and previous track. This way, I'll be able to reassign physical keys to control the Sense music player.
Can somebody create such mini-applications?
Thanks.

That sounds awesome! I would be really pleased if someone can do it.

The only solution so far I got is to switch from original ROM to Christian Troy's CM10 including Zulu99's DroidMote patches.
I am still not allowed to post links, so if you're interested, PM me.

Don't know how similar but I love Splashtop 2

I do not know what "DroidMote" is, but I use Unified Remote as my Android remote control. I watch a lot of stuff on my computer, hooked up to my TV, and it lets me use my Android keyboard as my computer keyboard, and the touch screen like a laptop's touch pad. It's a little jittery due to latency, I think, but it gets the job done. From the couch, I can open VLC's Media > Open and browse my local (PC's) file system and play music or video. The free app has some limitations but is usable enough. If you know VLC's keyboard controls, the basic input remote works well. Only, I use SwiftKey Flow, and sometimes it doesn't send key presses to the system (it wants to build a word). I have a Tasker profile to open the keyboard selector when Unified Remote opens, but it's annoying, so I have it disabled presently.

Unified Remote has nothing to do with DroidMote. (I use both.)
