ati remote wonder newbie question

[jackisidore]

I have found an ati remote wonder today and started playing.
The installer of the plugin installed 3 files in c:\ is this normal? I moved girder.dll to the ati plugin folder and atirw.dll to the girder plugin folder and now it's working ok.

I am used to remotes which combine several remotes in one remote allowing me to select a remote command set with for example the dvd key and send unique ir commands to my irman. A simple ir event does the job in girder.

I think I need to make my GML setup a litte smarter for instance if I press "A" on the ATI, girder knows I plan to use the remote wonder for winamp only. I know it should be easy but I can not figure out how...

hi,

it isn't as difficult as you might think, I've posted a shift functions GML on the Girder 4 download page some time ago: http://www.promixis.com/download.php?ID=902

readme is included in the zip.

hope this helps ;)

Thanks, I will give it a try, should be easy.
After some reading I think I want some kind of memory/variable and use a girder conditional for the ATI events. Probably requires some basic lua scripting. I really must start reading the book "Programming in Lua".

hi,

using global variables would do the trick.

make sure to report back if you hit any snags with LUA, most of the experienced users love to help out ;)
