Beginning with it, need a bit of help

[dmsuperman]

Ok, I have a remote that sends different keyboard key combinations. Using JavaScript, I managed to save what buttons send what combinations (e.g.: Fast Forward Sends Shift + Ctrl + F).

Now that I have this, I wish to use Girder to map these key combinations to control my program. There is a plugin for the program, called Beyond TV. I tried initially just using learn, but since it sends Shift & Ctrl & F, Girder sees it as 3 different scancodes. When I go to learn another button with Shift, it asks if I want to disassociate it with the other one. How can I get around this so that when I press Shift + Ctrl + F it will send the Fast Forward command, and when I press Shift + Ctrl + B it sends the Back command. If this is in the wrong place, I apoligize, but I wasn't sure how to get around this.

And yes, I did look this up on google, but I didn't see much about it other than how to send shift, but I want to recieve it.

You will not be able to use the standard mapping stuff to do this.

Open the logger window (F4)

Press the button you want... you will the various keyboard events in the logger. Grab the one you want (trial and error) and add that to the action you want to perform.

I'm not sure that's exactly what I'm looking for. I hit F4 and press buttons, but it only shows entries in the viewer if they were set in the Add Definition wizard.

Basically, I have just installed this program. I need to know how to map shift + f to play, shift + r to record, etc.

do you want girder to send or receive the key strokes?

[dmsuperman]

I have a plugin for it to send the commands I need, I need to recieve commands with shift and ctrl and alt in them.

ok, then from the logger, after you press that button you should see the event it generates. drag that onto the action you want.
