Send notifications to the player (ex.: pause the song).Respond to player notifications and display information (album art, title, buttons, etc).In GNOME Shell, you can see they have their own MPRIS module as well ( ), which is used to: If you deactivate the MPRIS plug-in, the "notification player" will no longer work. This implementation then exposes some information and controls out to other applications which want to control the Rhythmbox, like the Gnome Shell in your case. The code is pretty complicated, but basically implements the MPRIS specification. In Rhythmbox, this is implemented as a core plug-in. Which is used to add context to the active media item. It provides a mechanism for discovery, querying and basic playbackĬontrol of compliant media players, as well as a tracklist interface Standard D-Bus interface which aims to provide a common programmatic The Media Player Remote Interfacing Specification (MPRIS) is a I think the technology used by Rhytmbox to acheive this is MPRIS ( Media Player Remote Interfacing Specification). How do I make a media-control "notification" in Gtk with Python, as explained above? Using Python's help() function to look at gi., the only methods I see that seem to have potential are add_action() (particularly its user_data parameter) and set_hint() (and its variants). Keep the notification on top of all the others in the notifications panel.Make it so that the action buttons are next to the icon and text, not under.Make the notification so that it can't be closed.I know how to create actions using Notify.Notification, and I can make them have images, etc., but what I still haven't figured out is how to: Thanks to the help of BobMorane, I've now figured out that Rhythmbox uses libnotify for its player controls. I also searched, among other things, media control and media notification on Stack Overflow, but I didn't find anything there either. I searched in Gio, Gdk, and Gtk, but I didn't find anything. I know that there's a Gio.Notification, but it's not quite what I need (unless I'm very much mistaken). In the screenshot, you can see the actual notification, which I don't want to make, below the controls.
Note that, while it is in the notifications panel, it's not technically a notification, because it never pops up on the screen, and you can't make it go away.
This is what I want to make the media playback controls. The playback controls are bordered in orange they have a little music note icon: In Rhythmbox (GNOME's music player), when it's playing music, you can open the notifications panel and control the music playback from there.
