Can't figure out Global Hot Key...
« on: February 03, 2014, 11:51:16 pm »

So... this is starting to get a bit frustrating.....

I followed the instruction here.

http://wiki.jriver.com/index.php/User_Defined_Global_Keyboard_Shortcuts

I created, the folder,
Copy/create the resource file under Custom Resources

Create my list of global short cuts as


Quote
<MJRS version="1.0">
 
  <ACCELERATORS>

    <!-- Global shortcuts -->
    <Entry Key="Ctrl;Alt;Up" Command="10000" Param="0" Global="1" />
    <Entry Key="Ctrl;Alt;Down" Command="10002" Param="0" Global="1" />
    <Entry Key="Ctrl;Alt;Left" Command="10003" Param="0" Global="1" />   
    <Entry Key="Ctrl;Alt;Right" Command="10004" Param="0" Global="1" />   
 
   
  </ACCELERATORS>

</MJRS>


But what now?

I try to start the JRiver again, the shortcut doesn't seem to be taking any effect.
I try to double click it and just let it run. nothing.
I close all the applications that might be related to JRiver. restart the computer, nothing.
How exactly do I make the hotkey take affect?

or did I do/wrote something wrong in the custom hot key area.

Be sure to set the TranslateFlags also; they are not present in your definitions.  The target specific areas of MC.

oh, and where would that be? how exactly would it look like in my code?

I look back at the example.. it doesn't seem to set it anywhere.

Even looking the default source. it doesn't seem to require translate flag for the CTRL;SHIFT;F12

thx for the help.


edit: also added TranslateFlags="32" to the format, it also dosen't seem to help.....

    <Entry Key="Ctrl;Alt;Down"  Command="10002" Param="0"  TranslateFlags="17" Global="1" />

    <Entry Key="Ctrl;Alt;Right" Command="10004" Param="0"  TranslateFlags="17" Global="1" /> 

hmmm so let me make this clear, I create the folder
C:\Program Files (x86)\J River\Media Center 19\Data\Custom Resources
Then create a file call
Resource.xml

Then for me, paste

into the source file.

Save, close the Resource.xml

Close JRiver, and restart JRiver,

Then it should take affect right?

Did i miss anything? because it's not doing anything as of now...

Yup, I tested those bindings, and they worked.

Close MC before you edit the file.  Open after you've saved it.

The file just needs to be readable by MC.  Restarting shouldn't matter.  Be sure all MC process are stopped, including the server.

Here's are your key shortcuts in action:

Yeah I did take notice to shut down anything related to JRiver when i restart, including the Web app in applications.

but anyway, after a restart, somehow the command key now takes affect,

Thank you very much for your help  :)
