MV2 Player plugin

[maxxxim]

Is it possible to get plugin for a nice little media player like MV2 Player: (http://www.softpedia.com/get/Multimedia ... ayer.shtml)?
I tried myself, but as I only started to use EventGhost only recently I don't know how:(
I need only basic control (play, Pause, Fullscreen, Pan Scan increase/decrease, OSD info, forward/backward etc). I use MCE remote control (Philips SRM5100).

if you find out how that player can receive commands (http, etc) then we can help you write it.

OK, it can be receive keyboard commands, (I added my configuration) and also something called WM_COMMAND (example Switch Pause is LPar=2025, WPar=40103). And there is possible to export commands to Girder 3.2, too.

if it can receive keybaord commands then you don't need a plugin. just map the commands. I suggest you read the EG Wiki/Documentation to learn how to create the mappings.

OK, I did some mappings, example Switch Pause:
I added macro "Emulate keystrokes", inserted {Space}; pressed MCE Pause button (also Space) and drag/dropped it to Macro. Result: now Eventghost sends two pause commands (because MCE pause button sends "Space" and also EG Macro sends "Space") to MV2 Player but only when MV2Player window is active. When MV2 Player isn't active, it doesn't receive any command.
How can I send only one Pause command to MV2Player and how can I send this command when MV2 Player windows isn't active?

If you want to send keys when the program is in the background, you need a plugin. The commands would look something like this:

Code: Select all

FindProg = eg.WindowMatcher(u'MyProgram',None,None,None, None, 1, False, 0.0, 0)

class hotKeys(eg.ActionClass):    
    def __call__(self):
        hwnds = FindProg()
        if len(hwnds) != 0:
            eg.SendKeys(hwnds[0], self.value, False)
        else:
            self.PrintError("My Program is not running.")
            return

class MyProgram(eg.PluginClass):
    def __init__(self):
        self.AddActionsFromList(ACTIONS)

ACTIONS = (
  (hotKeys,"Play","Play","Play/Pause", u'{Ctrl+P}'),
  (hotKeys,"Pause","Pause","Play/Pause", u'{Ctrl+P}'),
)

You can check out this thread (2nd post) for a plugin shell to start from, as well as info on getting started.

Unfortunately this is too complicated to me so I have to find some alternative program instead of EG. Thanks anyway!

I had some time so I did the plugin. It was not difficult, MV2 Player is perfectly prepared for application of the remote control.
I did test only the most basic functions.
