TESTED ON:
---------------

- Moneual MonCaso 932T HTPC case - case includes a 7" displayworks LCD, eGalax Touchscreen controller and iMON Remote/Button controller. Using an ATI HD2400pro display adapter - using a Plasma TV as the primary display and the built-in touchscreen as the secondary display. (Tested by CybrMage)

- Gateway CX2724 Tablet PC with Intel 945GM display adapter and a FinePoint Touch controller - using an external LCD as primary display and the built-in touchscreen as the secondary display. (Tested by CybrMage)

- Generic x86 PC hardware - nVideo 8600GS display adapter - using a Plasma TV as primary display and a 17" LCD as the secondary display. (obviously, the navigation, playback and volume controls don't work with this configuration!) (Tested by CybrMage)

- Zalman HD160XT Plus - case includes a 7" LCD and Touchscreen controller and an iMON Remote/Button controller. Using an ATI HD2600XT display adapter. (Tested by Crimz)

- OrigenAE X15e - case includes a 7" LCD and Touchscreen controller. Using an unknown display adapter (Tested by hawihoney)


NOTE 1: Although this driver was developed for a Touchscreen that uses an eGalax touchscreen controller, it will work with any touchscreen controller that translates a press on the screen to a left mouse click.

NOTE 2: If you are using a touchscreen that has attached control buttons or volume knobs, these features are controlled through the units remote control hardware. To use them, you must configure them using MediaPortals remote control support.

NOTE 3: If you are using a device that is marketed as an iMON Touch LCD, or otherwise incorporates an iMON remote control (IE: Your hardware is shipped with the iMON software), You MUST set the "Run Touch LCD FrontView" option to disabled in "iMON Manager / iMON Utilities / Frontview".

- ADDED - Ability to "skin" the images used for the secondary display using a simplified TouchScreen_Skin.xml file.
The default skin definition file is created the first time the plugin is executed.
The Background="" attribute for each control button will accept any of:
* The keyword "internal" to use the default image
* A fully qualified path to an image file. IE: "C:\TouchScreenSkin\ButtonImage1.png"
* An unqualified file name. IE: "ButtonImage2.png"
If an unqualified file name is specified, the plugin will search for the file in the following directories:
* %MediaPortal Plugins%\process
* %MediaPortal Plugins%\process\touchscreen\
* %MediaPortal Skin Directory%\
* %MediaPortal Skin Directory%\touchscreen\
* %Current Skin Directory%\
* %Current Skin Directory%\media\
Additionally, for the Form background, you can specify "fromskin" to use the same background image as the MediaPortal display.
The Disk Icon, Media Icon, Recording Icon, volume level indicator and Play Status icons can not be modified.

Does this work with Vista x32?

[cybrmage]

I don't know... I don't use vista...

There's nothing in it that would prevent it... so give it a try...

[crimz]

This is GREAT work!! I have waited for this for months now...

It runs as you can expect for an alpha... )) with a few minor problems...

I have a few suggestions...

Maybe there should have been a kind of "ok" button?
When navigating inside radio or music, it should stay as is for some time, not for a few seconds...
An option for changing font size?

There is also some problems with the navigation, it is not always any reaction when i touch the screen..
For me this seems to be a problem with your software (tried to push the button with the mouse in vnc and i have the same behaviour...

Anyway i use Zalman HD160XT Plus, with ATI 2600XT and Xface 1.3/1 as skin... (1024*768 and 800*600 works) This is shipped with imon...

Thank you 8-}

Use the "right arrow" on the direction pad... It is mapped to "Select Item"... The "left arrow" is mapped to "back"... I just haven't found a suitable image to "borrow" yet to replace the arrows... (BTW... Most of the images I have used are borrowed from the XFace skin... Many thanks to the XFace developer)

This is an artifact from the External Display driver... the delay before reverting to the "Idle" state is hardcoded... I'm working on a way to extend it for the touchscreen display without breaking all the other external display drivers...

Currently, the driver calculates the largest size that can be displayed on 2 lines within the available display area... The ExternalDisplay plugin is optimized for a two line display... all that changing the font size will do is give you blank space below the text... (but... Specifying a font size will eventually be an option... Once I code the "Advanced" settings screen...

[quote=crimz;212549]There is also some problems with the navigation, it is not always any reaction when i touch the screen..[quote]

I experienced the same problem during development... I have found that the eGalax driver (the TouchKit package) is sensitive to the length of time that the screen is pressed... If the touch didn't last long enough, the "left click" event is not generated. I also find that If i press very lightly, the touch to the screen isn't always recognized (either by the MediaPortal driver or by windows. So... try pressing a little harder and a little longer... The button you are pressing will flash when the left click event has fired.

I have used extensive logging of the Windows messages sent to the display form (which tell the form that a mouse button was clicked)... When I experience this problem, there are no mouse click events at all...

And... You won't be able to click on any of the buttons of the form that is displayed on the touchscreen... even if you can mouse the mouse over one using VNC... This is because of windows focus... Try to move the mouse onto the secondary display (from the computer that is actually running MediaPortal) while MediaPortal is running... You can't... When the mouse leaves the primary screen, it jumps back onto the primary screen. So even when VNC shows your cursor on the secondary display... it is actually on the primary display.

The reason for this is simple. When you press the touchscreen, the main mediaportal window loses focus. When it loses focus, bad things can happen... such as the user losing track of the mouse, lost keyboard input and missed remote control commands (especially for the iMON remotes, which map remote keypresses to keyboard keypresses). To prevent this, every time the display is updated the location of the mouse cursor is checked... If it is no longer on the primary display, it is forced back to the primary screen (this prevents a "lost" mouse pointer for those users that use a mouse (or AirMouse) to control MediaPortal).

When the touchscreen is pressed, the touchscreen driver move the mouse to where you pressed and fires a left mouse click event. The driver receives the event, restores focus to the main MediaPortal form, and restores trhe mouse to the primary screen.

CybrMage

I've got Undhandled Exception error when going to "Configuration" under External Display. I've tried both Vista and XP (32 bit) with the same result. I'm using latest ATI Catalyst driver, not sure if it matters.

Attached here is the error details:

What version of MediaPortal do you have installed? Are you using an SVN build? I looks like the DLL does not match your installed version...

Great work - first of all!

I have an S16T case from Origenae and made the configuration as you explained.

Unfortunately when selecting Touchscreen LCD xx yy zzz there comes a "!", that says that there is no secondary display and the OK button is disabled.
In Catalyst control Center I have two monitors.

any suggestion how I could get the lcd to work with this plugin?

//edit:

MP version 2.3.0 + SVN + TV3 single seat on XP Pro Sp2

Yes, I use the latest SVN build.

Also looking at the instruction, you said not to extend the desktop into the 2nd monitor, I'm not sure how to do that since disabling extended desktop also disable the 2nd monitor (unless that's how it's supposed to be for the plugin to work).

This means that your touchscreen is not set up as a second desktop.

In CCC/Displays Manager, your two monitors should show up as "Desktop 1" and "Desktop 2". If they show up as "Main" and "clone" or "Main" and "Rightmost"/"Lower" then you have them configured as a single desktop.

Open CCC, go to "Displays Manager", rightclick on the second display and select disable. CCC will ask you to confirm the change, select "Yes". This will move the icon for the touchscreen into the "Attached displays currently disabled box". Then right click on the disable monitor and select "Extend Main onto monitor", and selected "yes" to confirm the change. The two monitors should now be labeled "Desktop 1" and "Desktop 2".

You will then be able to select the touchscreen driver in MediaPortal.

Try it with the 0.2.3 release... That is the version I have compiled it for.

Yes... You need to extend the display onto the secondary monitor ( I had meant to remove that from the instructions... but missed it... sorry. The instructions have been fixed. Thanks for pointing it out.
