Title: Request : Remote Control Diag - Add "Custom" Command Option?
Post by: jmone on June 05, 2023, 05:42:47 pm

The "Tools--> Options--> Remote Control--> Add" lets you select from a predefined selection of MCC commands, but it's a curated list so not all potential commands are availabe.  Instead of asking for specific commands to be added, would it be possible to have a "Custom" option when adding a command where you could enter in your own MCC command and parameter?  In this case I'd want to add MCC 20032 "Sync with Library Server". 

Thanks
Nathan

Could you add a new command and simply make it MC31.exe /MCC 20032?  I just tried and it seems like it's working.  Thanks.

Make:
/MCC 20032
The parameters.

MC31.exe should be the executable name.  You could put the full path, but you shouldn't need to really.
C:\Windows\System32\MC31.exe

Thanks Matt.  The RC area is a bit of a hidden gem!  Found a better idea however is to add a button with the same CMD to the TheaterView template as this way each client has the option instead of doing it on a per PC basis.
