MoPhat,

thanks a lot for this great plugin. It seems it will solve all my keyboard/remote problems.

In any case I suggest to put those shortcut in the main MP code so all users are not forced to download an external dll to have all My* keys work.

Will post my feedback this evening , after a try in real life...

MoPhat,

I'm trying to test your shortcut, but with Imon I have some difficulties mapping the choiced keys.
Can you change them using something like:

Home = Ctrl + h
Tv = Ctrl + t
Tv Full = Ctrl + Shift + t = Ctrl + T
Teletext = Ctrl + e
Teletext Full = Ctrl + Shift + e = Ctrl + E
Movies = Ctrl + v
Movies Full = Ctrl + Shift + v = Ctrl + V
Radio = Ctrl + r
Music = Ctrl + m
Pictures = Ctrl + p
Tv guide = Ctrl +g
Weather = Ctrl + w

Thanks in advance.

Check version 1.0 in the first post.
you can now set the keys for the shortcuts - i hope this solves your problems

With my iMon remote control, i have no problems with the remote keys.


=> sorry its not possible for this moment to use 2 keys like Ctrl + h or similar

MoPhat,

thanks a lot for the quick update, but how to do configure iMON software to handle semigraphic char like the one in the first post ?

Can you be so kind to attach your .IMO file ?

Please use the new bug-fixed version 1.1 and the imo file, this works well for me

In the Generic Keyboard Plugin source I found this:

---------- KEYBOARD.XML
<button name="DVD/Menu" code="11077">
<action layer="0" condition="PLAYER" conproperty="DVD" command="ACTION" cmdproperty="91" sound="cursor.wav" />
<action layer="0" condition="PLAYER" conproperty="DVD" command="ACTION" cmdproperty="92" sound="cursor.wav" />

give it a try :-)

thanks chemelli, but that's not that what i need

I need the ID from the XML file in the skin folder like this one:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?>
<window>
  <id>6</id>
  <defaultcontrol>2</defaultcontrol>
  <allowoverlay>yes</allowoverlay>
  <define>#header.label:134</define>
  <define>#header.image:videos_logo.png</define>
  <define>#header.hover:hover_my videos.png</define>

Its anywhere in the mymovies files, but i have not found yet.


does this version work for you?

thanks

MoPhat,

I'm not at home now to make a full test, but it seems to work really fine ;-) Thanks for your work.

I found this peace of code in C:\SourceMP\MediaPortal\MediaPortal.Base\skin\Blue Two wide\settings_dvd.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?>
<window>
  <id>704</id>
  <defaultcontrol>24</defaultcontrol>
  <allowoverlay>yes</allowoverlay>
  <define>#header.label:6015</define>
  <define>#header.hover:hover_my videos.png</define>
 

Hope this helps.

MoPHat,

I have your solution up and running with the same issues I have on MyKeys actually ;-(
no MyDVD and keys overlap other keys...

Is it possible for you to share the code ? I would like to add <ctrl> and <alt> identifiers for each key. This will give users the option to enable them and translate a "T" to "Ctrl+T" or "Ctrl+Alt+t" that will not interfere with others plugin keys...

Thanks again for your work and time.

Simone
