Description Masayuki Nakano 2014-06-19 08:13:10 UTC 
There are similar name keys:

'MediaSelect':
Select media.

'LaunchMediaPlayer':
The 'Media Player' key.

'MediaApps':
Show a list of media applications. (VK_APPS)


I understand them as:

'MediaSelect':
Opening media content (file) list. E.g., opening a folder which contains audio files, video files and/or image files.

'LaunchMediaPlayer':
Launching a player application which is not only for playing music. (For only music, there is 'LaunchMusicPlayer')

'MediaApps':
Show a list of media players, music players and/or image viwers.

Is this correct? Anyway, I'd like D3E-key spec should explain them more explicitly.

Per confcall discussion:

Remove MediaSelect (aka: LaunchMediaSelect)

Make a note in LaunchMediaPlayer that VK_LAUNCH_MEDIA_SELECT should use this value.

Gary:

What's the motivation of there is separated "LaunchMusicPlayer"? Such key may launch multimedia player. And such difference shouldn't be important for web apps. So, merging "LaunchMusicPlayer" to "LaunchMediaPlayer" doesn't cause any problem. "music player" is a kind of "media player", I think.
Comment 3 Arthur Barstow 2015-03-21 15:12:00 UTC 
Bulk move of all D3E bugs to the UI Events component.
