Can you more explain what you are trying to do? You can only control the media player on the computer. It is not possible to play music with Sailfish Connect on your phone that is played by a media player on your computer.

With PulseAudio you can stream audio to your phone: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/PulseAudio/Examples#PulseAudio_over... Maybe it works on Sailfish.

KDE Connect does not provide this feature.

Thank you for reporting. I will have to release the version 0.6 earlier than I wanted. Hopefully this will happen on this weekend and before SFOS 4.0.1 is released to all users.

I am using Debian Sid installatiin on my phone with Containers app. I got KDE Connect installed, and installed Sailfish Connect on the phone, and the devices recognize each other, and connect, and keyboard function is working, and I get no error when making a file transfer, but I can't find the transferred files, (there's also no confirmation, but not sure if there is supposed to be).... Where would yhe transferred files usually end up?update - seems like transfer is not happening. Any ideas?

File transfers are saved to the downloads folder. Notifications are part of the next release (0.6). For debugging start application from command line.

Got successful transfer to SFOS using contex menu in Nautilus. Command line output when trying to send from SF to Linux is, '
[W] unknown:0 - discarding unsupported packet
"kdeconnect.notification.request" for "user@C1
"'

Send ping works both ways, and notifications received on both ends. Keyboard works also...

When SF can not send files to KDE Connect. Then KDE Connect can not create TCP connection to SF. Check that it is possible to reach SF from the other side, for example create a SSH connection to check it.

Is there a way to implement media player controls in minimized app/multitasking view?

R1tschY's picture

Wed, 2020/09/09 - 21:48

Possible, but more than one cover action is not recommended and many actions like play are not useful when more than one player exists.

I was not able to recognize the gesture. MouseArea.onWheel did not work. I can try to figure out how it works.

Do you use GSConnect or KDE Connect? For GSConnect it is known that some notifications sended from SailfishConnect are not shown.

Unable to pair with desktop. Both PC (linux, kde-connect) and jolla1 phone (sailfish connect) are in the same subnet connected to the same router. Ping works, firewalls disabled, but the devices do not see each other and the phone is not detected as a connectabke device.
