Call MovingPictures with remote button? (1 Viewer)

[kiwijunglist]

Yes this is possible to do. You can set up the videos remote button to cycle between tvseries and moving pictures.

I have a similar setup for my music. If i press my music then i go into my music plugin, if i'm already in my music then it goes into the now playing screen, if I'm in now playing then I go back to My Music.

<button name="My Music" code="71">
<action layer="0" condition="WINDOW" conproperty="504" command="WINDOW" cmdproperty="510" sound="click.wav" />
<action layer="0" condition="*" conproperty="-1" command="WINDOW" cmdproperty="504" sound="click.wav" />
</button>

I'm guessing what you want should look like this:

<button name="My Videos" code="74">
<action layer="0" condition="WINDOW" conproperty="9811" command="WINDOW" cmdproperty="96742" sound="click.wav" />
<action layer="0" condition="*" conproperty="-1" command="WINDOW" cmdproperty="9811" sound="click.wav" />
</button>

Explanation

If current window = 9811 (My TV Series), then jump to window 96742 (Moving Pictures), otherwise jump to window 9811 (My TV Series)

EDIT: I see you want to cycle between My Videos -> TV Series -> Moving Pictures

Try the following (I assume My Videos window ID = 6, I didn't actually check this)

<button name="My Videos" code="74">
<action layer="0" condition="WINDOW" conproperty="6" command="WINDOW" cmdproperty="9811" sound="click.wav" />
<action layer="0" condition="WINDOW" conproperty="9811" command="WINDOW" cmdproperty="96742" sound="click.wav" />
<action layer="0" condition="*" conproperty="-1" command="WINDOW" cmdproperty="6" sound="click.wav" />
</button>

Hey, thanks.

I tried to go Videos - MovingPictures but that wasn't even working, but I must have had something wrong as it's working now after I read your post and tried again. In fact, it's cycling properly between Videos - MovingPictures - TVSeries repeatedly

Here's what I've got now:

<button name="Videos" code="2024">
<action layer="0" condition="WINDOW" conproperty="6" command="WINDOW" cmdproperty="9811" sound="click.wav" />
<action layer="0" condition="WINDOW" conproperty="9811" command="WINDOW" cmdproperty="96742" sound="click.wav" />
<action layer="0" condition="*" conproperty="-1" command="WINDOW" cmdproperty="6" sound="click.wav" />
<action layer="0" condition="WINDOW" conproperty="2005" command="ACTION" cmdproperty="18" sound="click.wav" />

the last line for fullscreen video (2005) wont do anything as the command will terminate at the 3rd line.


so just delete the 4th line.

or change it to

<button name="Videos" code="2024">
<action layer="0" condition="WINDOW" conproperty="6" command="WINDOW" cmdproperty="9811" sound="click.wav" />
<action layer="0" condition="WINDOW" conproperty="9811" command="WINDOW" cmdproperty="96742" sound="click.wav" />
<action layer="0" condition="WINDOW" conproperty="2005" command="ACTION" cmdproperty="18" sound="click.wav" />
<action layer="0" condition="*" conproperty="-1" command="WINDOW" cmdproperty="6" sound="click.wav" />

Thanks, I think that (2005) is the ShowGUI command but I can use my Info button for that instead, so I'll just remove it.

More importantly, I just looked and the whole file's disappeared! There's nothing in the InputDeviceMappings folder!!

I certainly didn't delete it and it's not in the recycle bin, so looks like I'm going to have to start all over again using the default Hauppauge HCW.xml from the Program Files folder

 

[kiwijunglist]

You are partially correct 2005 is full screen video and 18 is show gui

 

[doveman]

Thanks for clearing that up.

I can only assume that going to remote config in MP config after manually editing the .xml causes it to get deleted.

I've now gone back and changed one mapping and it's been re-created again, after which I've put the edits back in manually. Just need to avoid going to config again.

 

[kiwijunglist]

ahh previously if you manually edited the xml file and then tried to edit in mp config, it would make mp config crash. At least it did for microsoftmce.xml

I used this trick for a while, but it doesnt work in MP 1.2beta anymore !!!


my Microsoft MCE.xml file customization :

<button code="74" name="My Videos"> 
  <action sound="click.wav" cmdproperty="18" command="ACTION" conproperty="6" condition="WINDOW" layer="0"/> 
  <action sound="click.wav" cmdproperty="18" command="ACTION" conproperty="2005" condition="WINDOW" layer="0"/> 
  <action sound="click.wav" cmdproperty="9811" command="WINDOW" conproperty="-1" condition="*" layer="0"/> 
</button>
<button code="80" name="My Radio"> 
  <action sound="click.wav" cmdproperty="96742" command="WINDOW" conproperty="-1" condition="*" layer="0"/> 
</button>

I did the same test with defaul skin with the same result

Is somebody have the same problem ?
Is it my installation or a bug ?

AW: Call MovingPictures with remote button?

I didn't check your xml - but i changed my ms mce.xml also - and it's still working without any problems in 1.2 Beta.

 

[mbb]

I finaly found the problem.

The modified file has to be in ProgramData instead of Program Files.
