Title: Windows 10 Media Control Overlay
Post by: Steven on March 09, 2017, 06:54:28 PM
This plugin (probably!) enables MusicBee to interact with the Windows 10 Media Control overlay.
(http://getmusicbee.com/images/forum/MediaControlOverlay.jpg)

I did this plugin as a "proof of concept" to see if a MusicBee plugin could make use of the new Windows 10 API.
Although it appears to be working, I cant actually confirm because for some reason the overlay wont show on my machine at all (even for other applications that are known to support the media control overlay).
So I am posting this here in case it does work and is useful to someone. Also if a developer wants to make any tweaks so it does work properly the source code is included

Installation:
https://getmusicbee.com/download/plugins/mb_MediaControl.zip
unzip and copy into the MusicBee/Plugins folder

Title: Re: Windows 10 Media Control Overlay
Post by: Bee-liever on March 23, 2017, 01:19:40 PM
'media control overlay' is an OSD (on-screen display) that was introduced in Windows 10.
If you use a media keyboard with your desktop or have separate media keys on your laptop, when you change volume, skip tracks, etc, a pop-up appears on screen showing the volume level and media playing info.

Fantastic work Steven, thank you for the plugin!

The OSD seems to work fine when I use my laptop's volume keys, though not when I use the ones for play/pause or rewind/fastforward. I'm using an Alienware 13 R2 if anybody else here happens to be and has gotten it working.

Everytime I try to use the addon at the moment . I,m guessing its something on Microsoft's end at this pont as I've tried it on both the Windows store and website (3.3) versions with no fix.

Unfortunately this plugin has a major bug, when pressing media keys on the keyboard the presses register twice. Once by the Media Control Overlay/Plugin and once by MusicBee. This causes track skipping and breaks the pause and play functionality as the commands are doubled.

I have tried to fix this by editing the code of the plugin but its difficult without extending the plugin API or something along those lines with information from MusicBee about when it intercepts the keyboard press of the media keys in or order to prevent the plugin from repeating the action that was already handled by MusicBee if that makes sense. It would be great if the API told the plugin if a song change/pause/play was triggered by a media key or something else.

Another option would be to allow the plugin itself to handle the media keys and removing them from MusicBee's hotkeys but that is honestly beyond my coding abilities.

Just wanted to report in,
Plugin works like a charm, does exactly as it should.
When someone wants to use it in combination with universal media keys, be sure to disable the global hotkeys in the MB settings to prevent the double registering of key presses like mentioned in the other topic by Steven.

However for me it is not convenient to use.
- The media control overlay only "turns on" when media is playing.
    This means that there is no way to start playback with a media key after launching MB.
- Media control overlay gets hijacked by all sorts of other "media" players, meaning losing control over Musicbee.
- Microsoft seems to change the behavior occasionally with (feature) updates, might cause the feature to break in the future.

One peculiar thing I noticed;
the universal media keys on my K850 don't work with MB by default. The plugin fixes that, since MB then responds to the media control overlay from the OS, rather than a keyboard input. This seems to be a shitty "Logitech Options" media keys implementation (don't get me started on setpoint or intellitype "handling" of standard functions). However my M720 media gestures control playback just fine through the same (crappy) piece of software.

My Onkyo remote works fine through WinLIRC/frIRR! both without plugin and with plugin and hotkeys disabled, which is expected behavior. (I am 100% this sends out "normal" universal media control keystrokes)

Thanks Steven!
Title: Re: Windows 10 Media Control Overlay
Post by: alexdo on April 20, 2020, 09:51:49 PM
The whole problem is because of the media control "feature" that if you press a keyboard media key, the media control also simulates a click on its buttons. And the plugin defines the appropriate action for the buttons. So everything is executed two times - one from media control buttons callback and one from music bee global hotkey.

So here is a fixed plugin for everyone who wants to have working media control buttons and working global hotkeys:
http://www.mediafire.com/file/7fdiewd2r3df62i/mb_MediaControl.zip/file

The fix uses a keyboard key press hook that watches for keyboard media key presses and saves the time of the last press. And if last press is less than 1500 milliseconds ago the media control button press is ignored.

For everyone who doesn't trust me, here is the source to see what is done and compile it yourself:

Hello all,

Question: is it just me or did the plugin stop working with Musicbee 3.3.7367 ?

I have installed it in the "plugins" folder as instructed but only the vanilla control overlay ever shows up when a playlist switches to a new track.

My MusicBee folder is on the "D" drive, could that be a problem?

Please let me know - would love to give the plugin a try.

If your MB .exe file and installation of the entire application is on your D: drive, then your plugins directory is located under it. That's where this plugin belongs.

EDIT : Well, I got ignored so ... one last time maybe ?

Anyways, after updating my PC to Windows 10 1903, the overlay is not displaying the currently playing song's artwork. It only does does so occasionally when the the song is played a couple of times on loop.

I have the latest version of Musicbee, and and did try completely uninstalling and reinstalling it to no avail. The problem persists with the Store App. I think it has something to do with Musicbee, as chrome and other players work just fine with the overlay.

I'd really appreciate the help, as I rely a lot on the overlay, and would love to see it as it should be :(

PS. And I did install the latest patch. No change.

Hello everyone!
I recently reset my laptop and reinstalled Windows and everything related. I downloaded the patched Windows 10 Media Overlay plugin and it works perfectly. The only thing I noticed is that the overlay block thing lingers on the screen for a bit before it fades away. It used to fade away much sooner when I had it before. It's really not too big of a deal because, like I said, the plugin works perfectly but I was wondering if there was a way to adjust it? Thanks!

I've updated to 3.5 and it hasn't changed anything. But I believe I've fixed the problem for myself.

I forgot to mention that because my laptop doesn't have dedicated media control buttons, I use an AutoHotkey script to rebind Ctrl+Shift+Left to Media_Prev, Ctrl+Shift+Right to Media_Right, and Ctrl+Shift+/ to Media_Play_Pause. I believe these AHK hotkeys send simulated media control presses, but aren't real buttons so alexdo's fix wasn't actually necessary for me. I only thought I needed it because I gave myself the double register bug by having the MusicBee multimedia global hotkeys set to the virtual media control buttons because I must have had the script running when I set them. This caused both MusicBee and Autohotkey to send media control commands simultaneously, instead of MusicBee + keyboard button conflicts other people were having.

I fixed it by changing the MusicBee multimedia global hotkeys to Ctrl+Shift+Left, Right, etc. while the AHK script was disabled. And now after reenabling it everything seems to be working fine including the overlay using the original version of the plugin. Only minor gripe is that as others have reported, audio needs to be played directly through the MusicBee window once after it starts up before the hotkeys begin to register. I noticed the Spotify app doesn't have that problem so I imagine there's a potential fix but who knows? Media Controls do conflict with other media players like Spotify, but that's not a problem for me because I've never needed to have both open at the same time.

Cheers!

So far, this is working really well with the fixed version for the media keys from here. On Windows 11, this also intends to show the duration and track position a song is at, only it shows its length as 0:00 and as 100% played, no matter at what position the playback actually is, so the duration functionality doesn't seem to work. Did anybody ever solve this?
On top of it, this would be even sweeter if it showed up each time a new track is playing, just like the internal playback toast notification. I guess one can't have it all…
Title: Re: Windows 10 Media Control Overlay
Post by: CharlieJiang on May 15, 2023, 04:49:22 PM
I've noticed some minor issues in alexdo's version:

1. I didn't register global media keys in MusicBee, so there's no actually double register issue for me. Therefore, the fix against double registration directly disabled my media keys.
2. The display isn't updated in time. When I click the Next track button in the overlay, the display isn't updated until it appears again.
3. The player and the overlay may get confused and lag if I spam-click the buttons in the overlay.

Therefore, I wrote a small fixed version for these 3 issues. Note that I disabled alexdo's fix for the double register problem, but you may need it! If that's the case, at the Line 29 in the `MediaControl.cs`, replace "0" to "2000", and recompile.

Here's the code and DLL files (I didn't upload this to GitHub because I don't know what's the open-source license):

https://1drv.ms/f/s!AicHZ6DLvCtXgYhCqD050XH_TeJF8Q?e=SDaFnQ

The key is to call `SetDisplayValues` and `SetPlayerState` right after any operation is done, and before calling `Player_PlayPause`, check if we really need to do that by calling `Player_GetPlayState` (When the player is paused, and the user issued a Pause command may be due to lag in UI update, you wouldn't want `Player_PlayPause` to be called because it actually starts the playback).

Several things to note:

1. Direct dependency on UWP DLLs is replaced to NuGet package `Microsoft.Windows.SDK.Contracts`, which handles the references to SMTC classes.
2. packages.config migrated to PackageReference.
3. Fody is used to weave global mouse key hook DLL into the final plugin DLL.
4. .NET Framework version is changed to 4.8.
5. The compiler complains that `BackgroundMediaPlayer` is obsolete, but I didn't find a better way to obtain `SystemMediaTransportControls` object in a desktop (non-UWP) app - advice needed!
6. @froschfinger It's certainly doable via `SystemMediaTransportControlsTimelineProperties` in the SMTC feature. However, I'm now using Windows 10 instead of Windows 11, so I don't have the chance to test such a feature, sorry...

It should be easier to compile this codebase than the original version due to the first 3 changes above. Notably, I expect that the compiler won't complain about the missing reference to UWP namespaces.

Post by: froschfinger on May 17, 2023, 03:01:41 PM
Hey Charlie,

thanks for your new version. In fact, that was a good tip: Disabling the global media keys. I didn't need to delete them, I just unticked them to be global. That also solved the problem that when another app is having media playback, using the media keys on my keyboard toggled playback, so when one source stopped, the other one started playing (like YouTube and Musicbee). So as it stands, I won't need to recompile your version, so thanks a lot for the bug-fix version! If you at any point will be able to test the plugin with Windows 11, a fix for the progress bar and time display will come in handy. So far I'm happy I'm backing to having an overlay showing what song is playing or paused ;) .

The overlay isn't update anymore when music is changed. Using Win 11 (last update in 01/07/2023)

Forget it. Just reinstall and work again.

I improved on @CharlieJiang by fixing some broken/missing SMTC features such as Shuffle, Repeat and Timeline Info/Control to work with ModernFlyouts and other programs that read those SMTC information. This should work perfectly on Windows 11
