To quote from the documentation for IntentFilter: "Note that for an IntentFilter to match an Intent, three conditions must hold: the action and category must match, and the data (both the data type and data scheme+authority+path if specified) must match." Your <intent-filter> only attempts to match on the action. The details for the Intent(s) you would want to filter upon will vary by application and may not exist. For example, here is some information about the MediaPlayback app: http://www.openintents.org/en/node/112 -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com Android Training on the Ranch! -- Mar 16-20, 2009 http://www.bignerdranch.com/schedule.shtml --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Beginners" group.
