I just installed v5.  On v4, I used IRSS to allow my remote to control the windows client by sending Windows Messages to the Windows Class for the client.  This doesn't work for v5.  I look up the Windows Class with another tool and it says it is: WindowsForms10.Window.8.app.0.141b42a_r12_ad1.  If I use that value, the client doesn't respond.  If look at the available Classes using the IRSS tool, it doesn't list that class.  It has similar ones that have "Window.0" or "Window.20808" instead of "Window.8".  If I use either of those, I get an access is denied error.  There is nothing in the logs for the client because the messages are not getting to it.

Has anyone been able to use Windows Messages to control the v5 Windows Client?

From memory you can't use the Window class. Instead you need to use the window title or similar.

I can't explicitly set a class name. Winforms applications change the class every time I do a build or update anything.

In my experience, the class name doesn't change that often. Going back to GBPVR, I've had to change only a few times to this point.

For some reason, I can no longer send a Windows Message to control this app. Unfortunately, IRSS does not allow sending keys to a specific app, only to whatever has focus. So, I created a small AutoIT3 app that will send the passed in keystroke to a particular app, which can be specified by class name. I configured IRSS to call that app & pass the appropriate key for each key on my remote. So, I can still use my remote without NextPVR having focus, like for instance, as I type this.

This is the line from my AutoIT3 script that sends the keys to NextPVR:

Code:
ControlSend("[CLASS:WindowsForms10.Window.8.app.0.141b42a_r12_ad1]","","",$value)
