Hi sir,
  Sub: Regarding Media interface in audio.conf & few others

     I have used the bluez dbus api for VolumeUp and VolumeDown and its 
working fine. I want few suggestions how to extract MetaData information 
from player(I am using amarok) where it is usually a AVRCP TG and to 
send those information to AVRCP CT. And what are the Media interfaces i 
need to change ? I am using ubuntu 10.04 LTS. It will be very useful for 
my study
