Howto get Keys in a process-plugin? (1 Viewer)

[Thor2605]

I want to get the Keys from the Keyboard to my process plugin...

I tried this way:

#region IPluginReceiver Members

bool IPluginReceiver.WndProc(ref System.Windows.Forms.Message msg)
{
if (msg.Msg == WM_APP && msg.WParam.ToInt32() == ID_MESSAGE_COMMAND)
{

if (msg.LParam.ToInt32() == intCode)
{
//Do something
}

return true;
}

return false;
}

#endregion

But there I have the problem, that SendMessagePlugin doesn't work anymore if I activate my plugin!


So I want to read the keys from Keyboard! Does MediaPortal gives a function for that?

Thanks!

I think you have to override the OnAction(Action action) method, and catch the keypresses there like:
switch (action.wID)
case Action.ActionType.ACTION_KEY_PRESSED:
char pressedChar = (char)action.m_key.KeyChar;
