[vlc-devel] Playback controls and code duplication

[Kaarlo Räihä]

What is the proper way to control playback from inside VLC? I am planning to add better multimedia keyboard support to Win32 builds by catching WM_APPCOMMAND message and then controlling VLC from QT4 or Skins2 GUI. hotkey.c has some playback controls, but I don't think it is a good thing to copy&paste code from there to both modules. 

So there must be a better way to for example pause/play playback, mute volume or jump to next item in the playlist. So how should I do it?
