You need to look at the <target> tag which is part of a menu item's <event>. Basically, create a bunch of <menu> entities in the xml and use the <target> tag of a menu item to point to the ID of another menu. The <menu> tag of the currently active profile determines which menu is the first to be opened from the Extras screen. chincheta0815;601611 Wrote: > Interesting would be if it is possible to assign hotkey's to the menus > or submenus for getting very fast to the right "device" menu. The hotkey > currently goes to the profile's "home menu". However, I think you can add a <target> element to an event inside a profiles <key> definition to allow you to map any key combination to open any menu. I can't try it out right now but if I'm right then that kind of makes the "proper" Hotkey setting redundant! I may re-define the "proper" hotkey to enable/disable SqueezeIR and leave the menu-entry shortcut function up to the end-user. chincheta0815;601611 Wrote: > A last useful thing would be to have a persistent copy of the needed > config-files (xml and lirc files) on the controller making it work as > an ir-controller without server connection (e.g. for controlling > receiver function when listening to internet radio).

Yup, that has been raised before and I am > working on it for the next release. -- indifference_engine ------------------------------------------------------------------------ indifference_engine's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=20698 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=79524 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
