Title: Audio jack remote capability
Post by: novaldex on February 18, 2019, 08:30:47 am

I'm curious to know if the audio jack on the Gemini supports inline remote commands.

Not that I have one, but i've been experiencing really strange behaviour with one set of hands free headphones, whereby without any interaction:

• the volume level will change, both up and down
• the audio player (in this case VLC) will open in minimized mode & start playing at first a random track, and then subsequently continue on from where I last cancelled it
• the microphone will stop working (is this related to my other thread regarding the microphone?)
• watching video with VLC will stop/start randomly

And yet using the single button on the headphones to answer calls doesn't work!

A plain set of regular headphones does not seem to have this effect, however i've only tried them once so more investigation here is needed.

Thoughts?

Thanks..
