great if you possess a windows media remote! I only have Win7 Home
edition, so no Virtual PC XP Mode for me.. I still have XP on my previous drives, but a long time I not booted XP!
I enjoy much with the transparent frames!

here is my setup for the gyration:

work in EJukebox:
<- -> = change current selection and up/down for scroll on the remote
Enter = list current selection - add to playlist
1 = Focus Playlist
2 = Focus Songlist
3= Focus Album list/Shelf3D

It's a pity if there is no backward compatibility. or at least a converting tool..

yeah but the code would be twice as big and EJ would be slower.
the nice thing is i can add things compiled in vc2010 to EJ

NOTE: I think the best would be we don't need EventGhost (or any other tool) with eJukebox. if you can make EJ works with all the standard HID
commands..

I think maybe you should not start with my setup. probably it is not corresponding to your system, wrong paths..

GREAT!
just a small thing: when we will have media center running (for TV with the time shifting feature ) at the same time than eJukebox. what it will occur if I press pause (or any other command) ? how to select
the right application when they are not focused? unless you can add eJukebox to the windows media center menu!

well the default remote's play and pause commands only get sent to the focused app.
Here is an updated exe
Remote control Play/pause/ff/rev/ buttons now work when EJ focused
-when focused remote control Record button plays the current track or album when pressing 2 or 3 then <- OK -> to select songlist
tracks/albums
-Remote control previous/next/stop do not need focus
-hold down previous and next to ff and rev seek without focus

Excellent work Audiosoft! as always. I can now use my Gyration also with eJukebox. It seems that I will not need EventGhost.
Thank you very much.

Note to Audiosoft: EJ with Winamp (v5.17 updated)
My Gyration remote works also when EJ utilizes Winamp, EXCEPT the PLAY and PAUSE buttons which work "too much": when EJukebox is focused they act
as if I pressed them twice! Strangely when EJ is not focused there is no problem.
[EDIT] well in fact it's not exactly like that: There was a HID plugin still actived in Winamp. Since I uninstalled this plugin, the "story" is
different:
-when EJ is focused all the play controls of the remote work.
-when EJ is not focused, Play and Pause are not working.
OK I just figured why it works like that... it's due to my request for the time shifting on the windows media center. Life is not simple!

Pause and Play buttons on the remote: 2 Different buttons!
Ideally the Pause button should not act like the Play button. I think you used the same code than the single play/pause button of the keyboard. There
are certainly 2 different codes for these buttons on the remote.
-if the music is Stopped, pressing the Pause button should do nothing.
-when the music is Paused, pressing the Pause button should do nothing.
And for the Play button:
-if the music is already Playing, pressing the Play button should not pause the music, but do nothing.
-if the music is Stopped or Paused, pressing the Play button should play the music, of course!
Could you separate the Play and Pause functions, Audiosoft?
Thanks.

Check it out..just made remote controller and keyboard number pad control work allot better
What's new
-separated play/pause for remote controller
-Remote controller Channel up and down now moves artistlist and albumlist a-z
-updated artistlist <- -> key selection so it shows the artist name in the main title
-updated songlist <- -> key selection to use skin's titleedithi and hi version of the artist and album highlight instead of using the old
keybrdhi background color in songlist.dis
-fixed songlist <- -> selection was requiring 2 key presses to select the next track
-fixed ALT+Letter was not jumping the artist and album list
-updated 2 key to minimize the album list when it focuses the songlist
-fixed using 5 and then <- -> keys to move selection in the artist list so it does not keep repeating after you let go of the key
-updated Home view so <- -> keys pass over the < > pagers for songs, artist, and albums
-added Keyboard/Remote control <- -> support for songlist NetRelated items. includes add to playlist and play now (* or Play remote controller
key) functionality like the regular songlist tracks
-you can turn netrelated on and off and page next and previous as well but there is no highlight over those
-fixed previous list was loosing focus when video played
-added SHIFT+8 (* on remote) to restore video from fullscreen
-added SHIFT+3(# on remote) to set video fullscreen
-updated the top of Keyboard Shortcuts.txt
EJukebox Interface Control with Remote controller or Keyboard Number Pad:
4 or 6, <- -> = move to previous or next item
Enter or OK button on remote = adds to playlist or lists the tracks for current selection
* or Play button on remote = Plays selected song or album
1 or 0 = Focus Playlist
2 or . = Focus Songlist
3 or / = Focus Shelf3D or Album List When open
5 = Focus artist list - can also then do any a-z key to jump to artist section
Channel Up/Down on Remote - Scan Artist and Album List from A-Z
SHIFT+8 (* on remote) to restore video from fullscreen
SHIFT+3 (# on remote) to set video fullscreen
Up - Move Song Up in Playlist
Down - Move Song Down in Playlist
Delete - Delete currently selected playlist song

one thing i have decided to change is instead of the Record button on
the remote will make it use the bigger play button on the remote to play tracks and albums <- -> selected. now that there is separate pause why
not? it makes more sense. if EJukebox is paused or stopped Play on the remote will Play the current song otherwise it Plays the currently selected
track. updated the post above to that effect.

Magnificent Audiosoft! I tested a bit more this evening.. You have made
a magnificent work on the remote controller! It becomes a pleasure to travel in eJukebox using the remote.
Just a small imperfection in the songlist panel: when the artist is selected using the remote, the Artist Arrow is NOT highlighted.
And some small requests:
-a way to launch and drive the shelf3D in full screen using the remote. plus a animation/refresh like for the small version!
-a way to select and click with the remote the now playing album (in order to see the song's album in the songlist). maybe 0 to focus the nowplaying
panel then OK?
