Title: Syntax / Usage of MCC_TOGGLE_MODE & MCC_SET_MODE ?
Post by: tzr916 on September 09, 2022, 04:27:22 pm
I can't seem to get MCC_TOGGLE_MODE or MCC_SET_MODE to work. Either I don't understand what these MCC's are supposed to do, or I don't know how to write the commands properly, or they are broken. I thought these could be used to change MC from standard mode to theater view, or theater view to display mode, etc.... But when I run each of the following, nothing happens:
Code: [Select]
mc29.exe /22000,0
mc29.exe /22000,3
mc29.exe /22000,4
mc29.exe /22000,5

Or any of these, nothing happens:
Code: [Select]
mc29.exe /22009,0
mc29.exe /22009,3
mc29.exe /22009,4
mc29.exe /22009,5

No, I am not running these all at once (in a row like that). Just one at a time, and nothing happens.

Add MCC to your calls.  See the help for more details.

I'm not sure what help you are referring to? I'm on the Wiki but there's no clear examples of syntax for UI Modes. I am looking at:
https://wiki.jriver.com/index.php/Media_Center_Core_Commands#UI_MODES

But don't understand it. Maybe someone can show an example of adding MCC to my calls?

Hmm, doesn't work. I have MC open in standard mode, then I fire off any of the following but nothing happens:
mc29.exe /MCC 22000,3
mc29.exe /MCC 22009,4
mc29.exe /MCC 22009,5

Only thing that works is, if I am in theater mode and do:
mc29.exe /MCC 22000,3
Then it drops to standard mode.


So I really don't understand which list to use?
 // internal modes
or
// modes presented to the user

And what's the difference between MCC_TOGGLE_MODE vs MCC_SET_MODE ?

/MCC 22009,3 is Theater View.  Look at UI_MODE_THEATER in the MCC file.

Thank you! I am now on the right path. My confusion was that these commands don't work directly from autohotkey. So I'll just use batch files and point AHK to them.
