Send keys 2 gbpvr WITHOUT STEALING FOCUS!

[pBS]

yea, i only use my program for things that don't have wm messages..i couldn't find any other way to do it in hip...
the wm messages work fine in hip, but it is confusing...
i put this in my 'primary command' section of each keyOST(32771,193,0)
only the 193 part is changed,the rest stays as is..

here's part of my HIP config...

that's all the ones i've ever seen for gbpvr..
my list is not totally complete, but it gets the main stuff..

mostly just no wm message for the plugin screens [recordings/vid. library,etc]

So GB-PVR doesn't keep focus when you press a button that uses POST? Can you attach your entire .HIP file? Maybe I have mine configured wrong. GB-PVR keeps focus on my system with the POST msgs.

[pBS]

no focus stealing here...
try this one..not sure which files you need..
oh and i'm also using the replacement driver...if not, i'm sure it will not work..
[cuz the key presses would be duplicated on other screen...hitting enter would enter both gbpvr and whatever had focus]

[HydroChronic]

Can you post your message code list? I've found a few on the forums and elsewhere. I'm in the process of gathering docs, tips, etc. and have access to update the Wiki so will do that once I get enough info.

No problem, I just got back from a party so I'll upload the list tomarrow. I hope you dont mind that its not all that clean and basically a copy from the post that Sub gave me with my added comments. I'll update the file later with a cleaned up version, but that will come probubly Sunday the earliest.

[HydroChronic]

As promised attached are the two sets of message codes that GBPVR will respond to. As i said it is not a very clean version, but it gets the job done.

The modifier codes for Alt, Shift and Control can be added to other message codes to use Control+Q commands. This does not seem to work with the default Alt, Shift and Control message codes (early in the list).

Figured out the problem. In the "Edit Value" dialog, you used the "POST Message" button. I was clicking on the "Keyboard" button to the right of "Primary Command", then "Post Message". The difference?

"POST Message" button: 0|31743=0 POST(32771,192,0)
"Keyboard" button : 0|31743=0 {@32771,192,0}

Mine worked, it just made GB-PVR keep focus, while yours didn't. I have no idea what the difference is between the 2.

Thanks for your help. I'll be documenting all of this in "Tips and Tricks".

Hello!
I cant implement your send2gbpvr with irremote.

1,2 -9 goes ok

but
{run(send2gbpvr {esc})} doesnt work

{run(send2gbpvr 2)} works

I think {} used as an argument for send2gbpvr is translated to a code in
irremote. Eg You cant have {,} in the argument for a "run" in irremote

Solution?

Regards
Gandalf

[pBS]

hmmm,haven't tried that...maybe try quoting it...like "{esc}"
so that irremote knows to pass string as is..
i'll see if there's an alternative..

BTW: they're just autoit3's key list...can be found in the help file..

i think yours was 'posting' the message to the gbpvr window, gaining focus.. while mine just sends out the message as braodcast and gbpvr picks it up cuz its addressed to it... [or something to that effect..lol]

took me a while to figure out that one too,after which i promptly forgot about it..hehe
the terminology in HIP needs clarification, or longer terms,like 'keycodefromremote' instead of just 'keycode' etc.etc..
cuz you sometimes take an incoming key and translate into another to send out, and the lists aren't real clear which is which...

[pBS]

after looking over your list of the 'other' post messages for 32775,i find all the other keys needed...excellent work dude!

so i'm busy converting those last few keys over to all send messages, as i couldn't find any way to translate the {} for my program and it still work...
this way is better anyways...faster...thanx

that deserves a hearty YOU ROCK!

and should DEFINITELY be included in the wiki and any remote docs..!
the 32775 and 32771 differences should be highlighted and i'm thinking really 32775 should be the only list as it duplicates and supercedes the other list entirely...less confusion..

things like tab and enter and esc and Fx keys are the ones that are a pain, but all there from what i can see...even the mediakeys..
overall most excelent..
