Mortplayer's relative volume doesn't work correctly

Hi,
I had a Qtek S100 and I always used GSplayer as my mp3 player. Now I own a Touch, and since the touch has far less hardware buttons I switched to Mortplayer. Mainly because of the volume slider which you should be able to use to control the volume of the player instead of the system volume.
Now, this doesn't work. if I use the volume slider, the volume of the player moves 1 bit, and right after that the systems volume slider comes over the top and takes over.
Furthermore, I can't assign the camera button. When I assign it to toggle the screen on/off, it just opens the Camera.
Does someone know how I can make this work? And how do you guys use your Touch as a mp3 player?

A few odd button press questions. Please?

1. Pressing the Volume Up/Down button once will have the Volume Slider appear. Pressing it twice will have it appear, but muted. Is this built-in?
2. Sometimes when I soft key something, especially in messages, the resulting menu will auto-scroll down to the bottom. Why?

Ad.1 In my Vario it changes gradually, even if I press very quickly two times down it just moves 2 times down on a scale.
Ad.2 I've noticed that it happens when I press the soft-key quite long, probably the device already swiches to next menu and then 'thinks' it's a second press - because on the 2nd menu usually in the same place is an arrow that allows you to scroll down.
My question is - in portrait mode i have problems pressing left/right on the phone, the same in landscape mode - up/down. rotating the touchpad works great and moving up/down in portrait / left/right in landscape.
Is this a common problem? Or maybe it's not possible at all?

Normally I use the keyboard's left and right, but if I use the pad's it works fine as well... what exactly is the issue?

I can see something similar:
pressing the Volume Up/Down brings up the volume screen (system/ring in normal mode or the in-call one during calls), and a second press hides it!
No chance to change the volume without touching the screen

seems to be fixes with S2U2 1.36 and these settings

[Q] Anyone make a Volume remap or softkey program?

Using Froyo, the volume hard buttons on my Nook color are hardcoded to Back and Menu functions. I have looking for a way to add full-time volume softkeys OR find a way to make long presses on the volume buttons change the volume. Another option would be to have volume controls in the notification bar and keep the bar open all the time.
Button Savior has the ability to have full-time softkeys, but nothing for volume (that I know of).
Any ideas?

You could use ClutchPad for this. There's just one item on the screen, but you could set swipe up to be volume up and swipe down to be volume down.

Thank you. I got it to work, but it's a little slow and the up/down swipes are a little difficult to perform correctly. I don't know why it's slow to access the volume controls, but I think the swipe difficulty may be due to the Nook's screen edge sensitivity. Overall, though, I'm very happy to finally have a solution. Thanks again.

5.0.1. - shortcut to notification using volume rocker

Hi all,
Quick question -
I upgraded to 5.0.1. yesterday, and now I can no longer use the volume rocker as a shortcut to switch between "no interrruptions (silent)" and ALL notifications. In other words I cannot use the volume rocker to adjust ring volume and or disable notifications for a period of hours.
The volume rocker only adjusts MEDIA volume now?
What is the quickest shortcut to adjust from ring volume and/or disable interruptions, without having to go into the settings, sound menu.
I'm sure there must be some shortcut.
thanks

Sorry. The shortcut is still there and works with volume rocker. I killed everything in my tasks view window, just dragged away about 20 different tasks. And now the volume rocker shows the options again.
It seems some app was holding the volume rocker as media volume only, even when the app was backgrounded.
When it happens again I'll remove the tasks one at a time to identify the app at fault.

S-Pen Button long press and Tasker Task

In settings, it allows setting the 'Air Action' for 'Hold Down Pen Button to' (aka long-pressing the S-Pen button) to any Android app.
So, I setup this Tasker Task named Mute Media Toggle and selected an Icon image for the Task.
Task: Mute Media Toggle
If Condition %MediaMute equals 1
Variable Set %MediaMute to 0
Media Volume Level 10
Else
Variable Set %MediaMute to 1
Media Volume Level 0
End If
I then exported this Task using Tasker App Factory as an app named mute.media.toggle. I then assigned the Mute Media Toggle app as the app for the Air Action for 'Hold Down Pen Button to'. Now whenever I'm in an app that uses media volume, besides using the standard S-Pen Air Gestures for volume up/down, I can now mute/unmute the Media Volume simply by long pressing the S-Pen button. I really needed to be able to mute/unmute media volume easily because the Amazon Fire app when streaming video from the Amazon Recast DVR doesn't have any volume controls at all in the app's video playback screen.
So I imagine that anything Tasker can do in a Task should be able to be set to the 'Hold Down Pen Button to' action.

I'm using the app SideSqueeze+ for extended S-Pen gestures, since Samsung's gestures are unfortunately pretty limited. It's a very useful app with great support. I recently asked about an option to change the over all volume up and down and it came with last update
