I am looking for a simple way that a NR button can execute a windows program or simulate a key press.

I looked at the NR plugins, NR features, and LUA ref guide and did not find a way for this to be coded. NR is running on the remote control tablet while girder is running on the HTPC. I want the action to occur on the local machine. I could install girder on the remote control PC to do this but only if that is the only way to implement the capability.

Any other options?

thx don

No problem. But aren't you up a bit late, young man? :wink:

But aren't you up a bit late, you ng man? Hah! I had to make those NR changes before I put on a movie. Must have been 2:30 when I finally passed out. :-)

My CCF is finally fairly functional . It still looks pretty bad but it at least does most of the basics now. Thanks you and the others for the support .
