Ahhh, you've uncovered a bug. Whilst in the SqueezeIR settings menu the volume buttons (in fact all the buttons) SHOULD act normally BUT there's a bug that makes the volume go haywire. I will endeavour to fix it over the weekend. That said, if you're in any other screen (eg home or now playing) then SqueezeIR should work. The bug seems to be limited to the settings screen. I've tried the xml that I posted on my controller and it worked perfectly (I had to change the profile name and RC5 commands to match my system but that's trivial). Until the bug is fixed the simple workaround is not to touch the volume buttons while in the Settings screen. What's really annoying is I saw this behaviour early on in development and fixed it. I must have done something since to re-introduce it, D'Oh!

The boom captures the ir from the remote and forwards it to your server where the irBlaster plugin records it into a lirc file so you can see just what is being sent. You can then configure irBlaster to do things. I must admit that I can only assume irBlaster works with a boom as I don't have one. It's great with my SB3 though. -- indifference_engine ------------------------------------------------------------------------ indifference_engine's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=20698 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=66795 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
