hi
I am getting Double volume control one for device(n900) other is for mplayer in my application.How can i disable one of them.And also it is flashing green while starting and increasing volume in mplayer in my application.

can i able to disable the device volume control status bar for my application by using any maemo based api.at the time of incrase or decrease volume green screen is also flashing.The two volume control are one for mplayer another for device.I want to disable one of them.

In order to disable volume status note it's enough to set DND flag to your application window:

xprop -f _HILDON_DO_NOT_DISTURB 32c -set _HILDON_DO_NOT_DISTURB 1

In the code you can do it with Xlib directly or alternatively Qt 4.6 and Hildon library have a wrappers for that also.

can the chroma key which produces green screen can be disable.It is displaying when minimized window and while increasing volume also.

There is a bug in Maemo Bugzilla the most likely about the same issue:

while increasing and decreasing volume,mplayer application is producing green colour flash screen.But while playing video with mplayer it does not.I am launching mplayer by Q3process object.I am using qt 4.6.
