catch action and avoid returning it to MediaPortal (1 Viewer)

[pilehave]

Hi

Under certain curcumstances, I wan't to catch a user-action (say, if the user pressed "stop" in the "my music" screen).

Now, catching the action is easy, but how can I avoid the action to be read by MediaPortal afterwords?

My plugin is a process-plugin.

I have my handler like this:

GUIGraphicsContext.OnNewAction += new OnActionHandler(OnAction);

OnAction then checks the action:

public void OnAction(MediaPortal.GUI.Library.Action action)
{
switch (action.wID)
{
case MediaPortal.GUI.Library.Action.ActionType.ACTION_STOP:
//some function is run here
break;
}
}

You can't, since any number of processes may subscribe to the OnAction Handler.
And they get notified that this action occured, whatever they would like to do with it then.

Even though it makes my task more difficult, I'll say thank you anyways

One of the forummembers contacted me to get the actual code to catch actions with an actionhandler. I thought I would share it for future reference, so the full code is attached. This is from the MediaStream plugin, that goes together with the MediaStream skin
