Setting hip to control other applications

[Dan.]

using the control last selected app did the trick, i can finally control both GB-PVR and PDVD. - Thanks
is there any quick way (by using the remote) of changing which program i control with hip? i think you tried to explain just that with mapping the red button, but i didn't get that part, how do i map it and what is the -hip control key?

once you program the control key to either start or red button you will be able to press that at any time and it will bring up the hip panel
to do this open hip config
click on Hip control >define hip control>get user controlk will pop up press the button you want to use i use the red button you could use start if you wanted to (i use start for gbpvr as most of the time i dont use anyother porgram )
thats it your done
now to use it you just press it and follow the instructions on screen
in your case if you pressed the red button say then number 1 gbpvr would start
and if you pressed the red button then number 2 power dvd would start
and control would go to which ever you selected

I wasn't aware of this function.
I'll try it when I come back from work, sounds brilliant.
thanks
