I don't think easier is the right word, just different. The new
xml-based config file will make it easier to read and to add new
features IMHO but there's still a lot of work the end user needs to do
(even with LIRC integration). It's just the nature of the applet I'm
afraid as everyone has different devices that they want to control in
their own way. I've tried to make the applet as customisable as
possible.
As a taster, the new xml config file looks a bit like this...
Code:
--------------------
<SqueezeIR>
<remotes>
<remote ID="amp">
<protocol>LIRC</protocol>
<parameters>
<filename>Marantz_SR-3000</filename> <!-- case sensitive -->
<remote>SR-3000</remote> <!-- case sensitive -->
</parameters>
</remote>
</remotes>
<profiles>
<profile ID="music">
<keys>
<key ID="volume+">
<events>
<event ID="PRESS">
<override>true</override>
<actions>
<action order="1">
<remote>amp</remote>
<command>Vol+</command> <!-- case sensitive -->
</action>
</actions>
</event>
<event ID="HOLD">
<override>true</override>
<actions>
<action order="1">
<remote>amp</remote>
<command>Vol+</command> <!-- case sensitive -->
</action>
</actions>
</event>
</events>
</key>
</keys>
</profile>
</profiles>
</SqueezeIR>
--------------------
If there's anyone who's good at writing plugins then it would be great
to have a SqueezeCenter plugin to provide a GUI for editing the xml but
I'm not going to do it (at least not anytime soon!).
