Start Moving Pictures via MCE remote "My Videos" button (1 Viewer)

[RoChess]

Hello,

can you explain the way you discover cmdproperty code?

Thanks

It matches the skin control ID for that item. In this case they are using the ID that MovPic uses to identify itself with (it's a semi random number, that is picked by a developer hopeing nobody else uses it for their plugin). If you open the main skin file for the plugin, which in this case is the movingpictures.xml file, you will see it contains "<id>96742</id>".

MediaPortal has a bunch of IDs itself as well for internal functions and default plugins, which are mostly in the sub-100 range. All the 3rd-party plugin developers usually picked an ID in the high 1000+ range.

OnlineVideos = 4755
MP-TVSeries = 9811
InfoService = 16000
IMDb+ = 31415
SubCentral = 84623
Trakt = 87258

Enjoy.

Hi there

I think you will have to manually change it in the remote xml file.

Using XP or Vista? On XP, you can look in this directory:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\InputDeviceMappings

Edit Microsoft MCE.xml
Look for this piece of code:

<button name="My Videos" code="74">
<action layer="0" condition="WINDOW" conproperty="6" command="ACTION" cmdproperty="18" 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" />
</button>

Change the 6 (marked in red above) to 96742.

Let us know if it solved it.

Anyone know which file I need to modify in Windows 8/MP 1.3? I tried the one in

C:\Program Files (x86)\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\defaults\InputDeviceMappings

But I'm still getting My Videos instead of Moving Pictures

edit:

Found it here:

C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\InputDeviceMappings
