BleepBloop

one more -

OK={findwnd(,GB-PVR)}{SendMsg(WM_KEYDOWN)}{enter} - this sends an "ENTER" to the current window that has focus (not GBPVR if unfocused)

[KingArgyle]

Try something like:

OK={findwnd(,GB-PVR)}{SendMsg(256,229,0)}

What would really help is if I knew what 32771 translated into in the WM_ series of messages. I know hex it is 8003, but couldn't find that particular command. If we know what WM_ message it translates into I can try to catch it.

Sleptoor:

Attached is a version of BleepBloop that will try and catch the messages that are sent to GBPVR when it is in the background. Let me know if this works or if you get any problems. Any errors should be in the GBPVR.exe.log file if they occur.

Thanks King,

I'll try today when i get home from work. Sorry I didn't get to try your last suggestion (i'm getting ready to move and life is a little hectic right now).

KingArgyle,

I tried the new DLL but nothing. It still worked as before no sound when not focused. (I tried the other ini line as well and it didn't work at all)

thanks for the effort,

Okay, I'm going to make another version that will have a bit more debugging information in it. It'll let us know if I'm at least intercepting the message correctly or not, and also what values are being sent when the remote buttons are being pushed when GBPVR is in the background.

Sleptoor:

Here is a version of BleepBloop with some extended debugging information that will be written to the GBPVR.exe.log file. Now this log file can start to fill up as it will write out to the log everytime it receives a Windows Message. The following is what I'm looking for:

BleepBloop: Remote Key Message Detected.
BleepBloop: Value Received:

The above message should be in the log when you have GBPVR in the background and you press a button on your remote. If the above does not show up, then there should be a message like:

BleepBloop: Unknown Message Received:

The unfortunate thing is there will probably be a lot of the Unknown Mesage Received traces in the log as I'm only handling certain messages in the plugin.

Anyways, if you or anybody else get a chance to test this out, I'd appreciate it.

Cool,

I will try tonight.

KingArglye,

I deleted my log file and ran your Debug DLL. I only used the remote to move up and down a couple times and then hit the OK button. You can download my Log file here. Log File.

Good Luck....

It looks like BleepBloop is receiving the following windows messages when GBPVR is in the background and being operated by the Hauppauge remote:

275 = WM_TIMER
1024 = WM_USER
537 = WM_DEVICECHANGE
15 = WM_PAINT

The only one that is really of interest to us, appears to be the WM_DEVICECHANGE. As that occured three times while you were on the mainmenu. I.e. Move up and Down and the select OK.

If I get a chance today, I'll see about trying to capture some extended information on that message.
