I have been studying the code of mythtv for a while now.

I understand that while a movie is being played in mythfrontend, a loop in tv_play.cpp gets on executing.

While a movie is being played, if I press the "Esc" button, the movie stops playing and MythTV returns to the screen where we have

     * Watch Recordings

     * etc etc

Now, what I wanna do is simulate this "Esc pressing" with the help of a single function call that can cause the movie to stop and make MythTV return to the above mentioned screen. Due to my poor knowledge in QT I am unable to solve the problem in hand.

Can anyone help me figure this out?

I would like to run a thread alongwith the RunMainLoop (if i am correct) in tv_play.cpp that wuold keep on checking for some signal (not exactly signal per se, it could be a change in value in a database table etc).

the moment I detect that change, my function is called and the movie play stops, making MythTV to return to the abov screen.

Just to let you know...  Your messages--all three of them so far

--/are/ coming through. It's always a good idea to wait a few hours after you post and then search the archives if you're afraid your messages are not going through. You can search by subject

or even using your own e-mail address

However, no one is responding to your question, "Can anyone help me figure this out?" This probably means no one can help.
