View Full Version : Sendkeys an JRMC Theaterview

Dear all,

I am using G5 to control JRMC 12 from my remote. I am using JRMC in Theater view where you can easily navigate with the cursor-keys. I'm using the sendkeys lua function to send cursor-keys to JRMC. This is working quite good, but after a while it seems like Theaterview is losing the focus and is no longer responding to the sendkey-command. This is happening for example if I inserted a CD or DVD.

But if I use the hardkeys on the keyboard Theaterview is still responding to them, so it has something to do with the keyboard emulation.

I also tried to send the window-handler with sendkeys, tried to use the focus-function, bring window to front, even click with the mouse on it -- the software emulation is not working anymore. However, after a restart of JRMC it's working again.

Any ideas how to get a workaround or maybe a suggestions about an alternative way for navigation in JRMC12?

Thanks,
Marc

Are you sending to the foreground window?

I don't get this problem using Girder and JRMC in Theater View.

I'll look later when I can and see how I sedn the keys to JRMC and report back.

Rob,

yes, that was my first attempt. And then I tried to bring theaterview to front with Girder actions before sending keys.
