I've got one of those belt holsters for my BB that has the magnet in it so it turns the screen off when it goes in.

I usually use xplayer to listen to music on my BB, but now I'm using the BB media player because I'm doing streaming radio from moodio.fm. So when I put my BB in the holster, it kills the BB media player. Is There anyway around this, or some setting somewhere to alter this or even a 3rd party solution to this problem?

I have had both the 8100 on AT&T and now the 8130 on Verizon. I have never had a problem when using the stock media player with a sleeper case. I don't recall there being any settings to turn this off or on.

Sorry - this does not help you in your quest to fix the problem...

So your media player would continue to play even when it was put into a "sleeper case"?

Yes it does, but it's kinda hard to see the screen.

Correct. They will continue to play when placed in a sleeper case. For the 8100, I use an after market pouch and for my 8130, I use the stock belt clip.

Then is there a difference from listening to music from your media card or whatever, then from streaming music through the player from a website? Cause as soon as I do anything in the player while its streaming, it stops the stream.

Alright, i guess this is just a problem with the streaming media and not just listening to mp3's on the device its self. I bet it has something to do with the media player is being accessed via the browser and not the media player its self, so it acts like a web page.

Thanks for the input everyone!

It's good to know that this is not a problem with your media player. Maybe this is something that could be addressed in a future OS upgrade. You would think that allowing streaming media to continue while in sleep mode would be an available option...

Yes. I just started using Moodio today. I find it to be great as well. I also am faced with the same issue. I have the curve 8310 with the magnetic holster. Each time i put the phone in the holster while streaming radio, it cuts off. It even cuts off if I try to access the menu or if I click back.

It looks like it is viewing the player as a web page instead of the media player. I wish it can be fixed asap becuase the display and backlight ends up draining the battery much faster.

I think they intended to use the streaming media for video, not music. How would a request be made for something like this?
