Pause\Play on 1 button on my popup menu

  Or without the use of a variable:
  
  function pauseHandler()
  {
      try
      {
          if (Player.playlist.playState == Player.playlist.PLAYSTATE_PAUSE)
          {
              Player.playlist.play();
          }
          else
          {
              Player.playlist.pause();
          }
      }
      catch (err) {}
  }

  I've used this:

  var playing=1;  //put this line outside of function

        if(playing==1){
           Player.playlist.pause();
           playing=0;
        }else{
           Player.playlist.play();
           playing=1;
         }

  <cue begin="($playState=1)" end="($playState!=1)" select="id('playPauseButton')">
  <set style:backgroundColor="blue"/>
  </cue>

  <cue begin="($playState=2)" end="($playState!=2)" select="id('playPauseButton')">
  <set style:backgroundColor="red"/>
  </cue>

  This is interesting. I could not get it to work though. Anyone have a small example

  Interesting. Peter, is there a list of all player properties usable through XPath variables somewhere in the spec
  I cannot remember seeing something like this...
  
  Cheers,

  Using $playState for switching graphics does sound like a better way, can anyone give an example (got no specs)

   BTW. if you want to use script just catch the pause, 0xB3, button that should solve the issue when a user presses pause.

  Also I would recommend NOT changing the graphic when the button is pressed, since that won't work if the user presses the pause key manually. Rather, I would trigger the graphic change based on the playstate changing; you can do that in the markup by referencing the $playState XPath variable.

  That makes things so much easier. Thanks.

  Section 7.5.2.4.1 will point you to Annex W.2-1 (and some other tables).

  Note that some XPaths are set at the time the page was loaded (ie, won't change) and others are set every tick (so will change).

  This code doesn't seem to work on the sonic emulator unfortunately but it does work on the ihdsim.
