I'm having the same problem of it not working...

I chose down. So when I start music I push the dpad down and the screen turns off. To light the screen up just push the power button.

Wrong...that is for the screen toggle only. The phone would still be on. The method on this thread enables the user to put the phone in standby mode, and the music keep playing...

So yes, the reg tweak is way better....

Why is it so much better to have the phone go to standby as opposed to screen off? Does it save more in battery life? Also, I am new to this stuff and want to know what method to use to edit my registry - do I need to download a new app or can I just open the file on on ppc? (I have a WM6 HTC Touch)

Yes, I just tried it out and it works ONLY with the audio manager that comes with the HTC Touch. I really need this to work with all sound/video apps that one can play on the phone (such as the Sirius internet radio app, TCPMP, WMP etc.) because I am getting poor battery length due to the screen staying on while playing music etc.

Does anyone have a better more universal fix for this?

didn't work on my touch. Power button pauses the file or stream. I can turn off the screen as linked which helps, but won't standby. I can hit the power button in TCPMP and it will keep playing, not in WMP, however.

Well it works for me with windows media player. Play file, press power button, still playing. I have sprint touch.

It does work with the Sirius PPC app though.... Funny thing. Can someone with the smarts please help us figure this out?
