Android Question Global media controls

[joermo]

Is there a way to implement media controls in my app. If an app (say Google Music, Spotify or VLC) is playing a song; can I send next, previous, play and pause commands from my app?

No.

You can use vlc4b4a to run it in your app. Here you can control it.

OK Too bad!
