Hi all !

i have a quite simple question :
i want to launch VLC throught mediaportal (to read a stream). So i did it in myprograms.
Once VLC is launched (over Mediaportal), i would like to be able to send commands to VLC for changin flux :
- n like next flux
- p like previous flux.

So i mapped 2 keys on my remote without condition and i specified the action 'keypress + keycode'.

i hoped that it would simulate the key press on VLC process, but it did not. Doers anyone knows what i am missing ? do i have to deal with layers ?

thanks

If you wanna simulate keypress events for other applications then you need a tool like miriserver or Girder.
I prefer miriserver its very simple and it does what it should do.
