External Radio
[ Cyberpunk 2077 External Radio ]
This is the simplest and most versatile solution I could find for a radio replacer.
[ How it works ]
- The redscript script watches for the player to enter or exit the front left seat
- The redscript calls a function in red4ext that tells the windows global media controls to play or pause

[ How to know if your player is supported ]
If your player appears in the windows system media transport controls (SMTC) it is supported
This can be seen by changing the volume and seeing if the player shows up
If your player is not supported, it will not show up
If your player is not supported, you may be able to find an SMTC integration plugin
