Generic Keyboard/Remote Input Plugin (2 Viewers)

[niblet]

I looked in my mediaportal.xml file and both instances are 'yes' I can go in and create a new key in the plugin but everything is greyed out, I cannot assign any actions / windows etc...

I have my remote sending the E key when I press the 'Videos' button, I want that to fire up Moving Pictures when mediaportal thinks the E key has been pressed

Hi,
I mapped ctrl+g for the TVguide, and everything is working, except after standby. When the pc comes out of standby the key is not recognized, even a restart of MP is not helping.

I am still using 1.02 but on win7. ctrl-g is the only key I mapped.

hints anyone?

cheers

I've installed MP1.1.0 RC1 and used the latest version of KeyboardInputPlugin with my old assignments.
As soon as I press any key mediaportal crashes :-/

If you use MP 1.1 RC you need to use the two dll's posted by Disaster123 a few pages back. These are compiled with MP 1.1

The download is here

I just tested this and it is working on my system...

Yes, thank you for the link!
It works perfect on MP1.1.0 RC1

About a year ago I made a change to this plugin that I recompiled for my own use only. However, now that I just upgraded to Mediaportal 1.1 I needed to use the newer version of this plugin which still contains the same old behaviour that I once changed, just this time I cannot seem to find the source anymore in the SVN tree. Could anyone help me find it (PM me with a link or just reply here)?

Thanks in advance!

Edit: Feeling dumb... Just saw that the source is actually in the download.... Forget I ever asked

Here's hoping...

Disaster123 (the one who provided the MP1.1 compatible version of this plugin a few posts back) does not have any more data to help me figure out how to compile version 2.2 of this plugin against MP1.1 RC, so I'm hoping someone else with more experience in development for MP and plugins can help me understand.

When I compile the 2.2 version of this plugin against the MP1.1 DLLs, it still makes MP close as soon as any key gets pressed. The only thing that was weird when doing the recompile was that the "TVCapture.dll" file was required as a reference in Visual Studio. That file does not seem to part of MP1.1 anymore, so I used one from an older version, which may very well explain why the resulting plugin crashes. However, I could not find if the namespace from that DLL has been replaced by something else.

In short anyone who may have a hint on how to get this plugin recompiled for MP1.1, I'd be very happy to hear.

Hey,
I just upgraded to 1.1 RC1. I am also using the keyboardinput plugin with the latest dll. Actually everything is working fine, BUT:

from time to time the plugin just seems to stall, and the mapped keys do not work anymore. I can only restart MP to get it working again.

Unfortunately there is no special event (as far as i can see) before the app crashes.

Are there some logs etc that i could provide?

cheers
