Headphone Jack On/Off Switch

mehtadone:
I don't know if this suggested idea is possible due to the hardware, but wouldn't it be a good idea if, when you pulled your headphones out of the player, the player switched off?

LinusN:
No, the hardware can't detect that the headphones are removed.

psycho_maniac:
could the archos 20 do this? i rememer when i had mine if i removed it or pluged in the headphones that the backlight would turn on

LinusN:
It's tricky, but it could be done. I don't really see the point though.

I noticed the other day that the iPod pauses playback when you disconnect the headphones - but it doesn't unpause it when you plug them back in.

I personally found that behaviour annoying, but I can imagine that there could be situations where a user would like the action of connecting/disconnecting the headphones to make Rockbox do something.  I just can't think what though.
