ATI Remote Wonder II

[vam]

hi

i) does Girder need a plugin in order to use this remote? if so, which & where is it?

ii) in what way my using ATI Remote Wonder II would be improved by getting Girder on my PC?

thanks

[vam]

i don't know whether this forum is administered by Girder themselves but if so they don't seem very eater to promote their product!!!!

conclusion: i am not buying girder for the time being

the lack of response means most likely that the ones that have seen the thread have not got the info yet.

I wouldn't be able to give a good answer as I don't have this remote. But I guess the ATI Remote Wonder plugin would work for the remote wonder II... maybe I am wrong.


BTW the support in here is incredible. they are very very helpfull with the girder software.

thanks marsupial

that is to say girder is not interested (since 'they' don't have the answer).

[Marsupial]

"they" are not always the ones with the answers.

some plugins are developped by 3rd party.

some knowledge is out of proximis.

It is impossible to own all hardware Girder is compatible with.

For instance, when you require to know how to use a parallel LCD with girder, the best guy is the one who wrote the LCD plugin V.2, not the guy who wrote the main software, he might not even have this piece of hardware.

As I mentionned, you will always get good support in here... not always by the guys that are working hard bringning girderV4 to life, but by the enthousiasts like you and I.

The girder forums is a precious database... have you at lease do a search on remote wonder, or looked at the available plugin list, before posting and complaining?

Girder have a very steep learning curve... be patient and read a lot.

that's the key.

Now... back to your remote... have you at least tried the remote wonder plugin?

Found it!

There are a few discussions about this plug-in in the main Girder Forum. If you have problems with it, I would start by digging up those threads, before starting a new one... your issue may have been discussed already.

Good Luck and welcome to the board.

to marsupial:

oh yes i have looked at my remote built-in plugin!

oh yes i have trying a list of plugins meant for this remote!

i have been fighting with this stuff for many hours, mainly at night...

oh yes i am complaining with no reason

oh yeas i am kinda stupid

but all that did not give me the solution

no surprise, isn't it?

thanks to the author of the following post. take a look at it.

and another good thread: http://www.promixis.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=10393

Please note, that while you have stated "conclusion: i am not buying girder for the time being", others may want to.... so, being that I hate when I come across a searched thread that dies... I'll keep this one alive for now!

So... did you ever get this working?

as a side note, you are also more likely to get a response regarding to Girder files in the Girder forum :-)

[Marsupial]

granted.
