iTouch-Control is a plugin that enables users to control Audacious media player with multimedia keys on their keyboard. The plugin adds convenience and simplicity to the media player user experience.
iTouch-Control should work with all kinds of multimedia keyboards. However, X Window System must recognize the existence of multimedia keys, which is a basic requirement to use this plugin.
To use this plugin, certain requirements must be met. These include the GTK+ version 2.4.x, Audacious media player 1.x or higher, and Audacious header files. All these requirements must be met to ensure that iTouch-Control can function optimally.
The latest release of iTouch-Control comes with several bug fixes, including a fix that prevents the plugins' configuration dialog from failing to display keycodes for the "Mute" and "Volume Up" keys. Another fixed bug ensures that the keycode for the "Mute" key is stored in the Audacious configuration file.
The volume bug has also been fixed, whereby, after the volume was muted, pressing the mute button again, would not restore the volume to its previous state. Additionally, the plugin has undergone minor UI improvements to its configuration dialog, and some code cleanups have been implemented, including changes in the way iTouchControl saves and loads its configuration.
Overall, iTouch Control is a useful and straightforward plugin that brings multimedia keyboard support to Audacious media player. Whether you are a new or experienced user, this plugin is worth trying out, primarily if you need an efficient way to control your media player.
