In-Line Control?

[Darkknight512]

I'm wondering if it is possible for someone to make a program that watches the microphone line so that when someone presses on those "Apple" compatible in-line controls the program will trigger a button press.

I have to say that this is a F***g good idea Darkknight512 ! B)

I had plans to build one that uses the EXT port, but there wasn't anyone interested in handling the software side making buttons over the GPIO pins on the ext port so I abandoned that.

I think you might have to splice the cable if Apple did the same backwards microphone/ground thing they did with the iPhone, but otherwise it seems like it could work.
