Subject: [slinkelist] CDJ commands requestColby, could you add few command to CDJ automation = interface :
1. list_command_up
moves up in currently selected list, like = pressing up_arrow key from
keyboard
2. list_command_down
moves down in currently selected list, like = pressing down_arrow key
from keyboard
3. jump_next_window
rotates focus to next (visible) window in = CDJ
Alsums->Tracks->Playlist->Details->Players->Album= s
4. add_to_playlist <I THINK this allready = exist>This allows one to have ALMOST complete control over = CDJ with IR remote
control =3D
(for example with "egg" one of those simple = tv remotes with 6 keys in
compass config [up,down,left,right, centre=3Dselect, = power])
You could browse albums / track & add them to = playlist with IR remote
controller
-------------------
up =3D up in list
down =3D down in list
left =3D vol down
right =3D vol up
select =3D add_to_playlist - command
power =3D jump to next window (albums <-> = tracks)
---------------------Pleeeeeaaaaase, pretty please.
I don't think this should be too hard to do ; = automation interfacce
command that triggers moving to next / prior in list = that currently has
focus. And move focus to next window, you could also = tie that action to
TAB key. 6-button remote controller is all they can = handle.I had party last weekend and again noticed that CDJ = interface is still
too complicated for casual users.
I'll promise I will not ask anything else for a = LOOOOng time, well I try
.... ;)I have finally got over losing the "Play = now" and getting used to pass
everything through the playlist. With Clear_playlist = & randomplay it
functions quite nicely.

Not a single sing of life from mouse emu, I if you mean that VB-ActiveX application. 1. problem was that it needed some vb dll / ocx that were not in vb runtime 2. I got those files and I was able to start the app but it showed no signs of life in receiving IR. That's the problem with VB soft they usually do not work on any other machine than the one they were made in. The IR helper for Creative Encore DVD worked like charm, BUT it was made with Delphi. Delphi too has few problems BUT only few (2-3) but it's still poles apart from VB. If you are using VB, move to Delphi as soon as you can. Believe me You'll never regret it. I sincerely mean that as a fellow programmer. And in any case I do NOT want mouse movement just UP & DOWN arrow keys AND ability to jump from window to window inside CDJ. I'm sure that mouse emu in great program (if you get it to work), and I really mean that : you have juggle with WINAPI & ACTIVEX and SLINKE-Serv to get them to work even in some situations is an achivement itself. But controlling mouse_cursor with button_presses is not what I'm looking for. I want much more limited movement = single button press steps focus up/down in albums or tracks list (moves focus = displays cover) and another button to switch between albums and tracks window. -michael (A) "Thomas W.

I've had in my office one PC running CDJ, natively controlling a pair of Sony changers in the living room, with a long Cat-5 run from the PC to the Slink-e and a long speaker connection from the amplifier in the living room to satellite speakers in the office. I did most of my listening in the office, so having the primary CDJ control there was convenient enough. I've now acquired a home theatre setup with gorgeous audio in the living room. I still intend to do a fair amount of listening in the office, but now quite a bit more in the living room. I now want to control the Sony players through CDJ (or perhaps PartyGUI) in both the office and the living room. I have a few thoughts on how I might do this, but before I bias the feedback I'd rather first ask for suggestions from people who have already done something similar. To focus the suggestions, I'm prepared if necessary to put another PC in the living room and LAN connection between the living room and office. Ideas, anyone?

The server also has my MDB file, covers, and playlists. If I'm anywhere within earshot, I just grab the laptop to control CDJ. It works great -- I get full CDJ control from anywhere inside or outside the house. There are two annoyances that you will see in any CDJ/DCOM network configuration. First, CDJ updates reset the DCOM connection data, so I have to run DCOMCNFG and reconfigure DCOM after every CDJ update. Second, if CDJ crashes, I have to manually go and restart slinkesrv. The newer 11 Mbps wireless cards are fast enough that there's no significant difference between having the MDB and covers on the server versus the laptop. If my wife's using the laptop, I just revert back to running CDJ on the server, since it has the MDB and covers. If you're planning to buy a new PC anyway, I'd strongly recommend considering spending a few hundred bucks more for a laptop and wireless LAN. -----Original Message----- From: slinkelist-admin@nirvis.com [mailto:slinkelist-admin@nirvis.com]On Behalf Of Ron Tugender Sent: Monday, October 30, 2000 10:08 am To: Slinke-List Subject: [slinkelist] Multi-room controls I've been using Slink-e/CDJ for a while now, but in a rather simple way. I've had in my office one PC running CDJ, natively controlling a pair of Sony changers in the living room, with a long Cat-5 run from the PC to the Slink-e and a long speaker connection from the amplifier in the living room to satellite speakers in the office. I did most of my listening in the office, so having the primary CDJ control there was convenient enough. I've now acquired a home theatre setup with gorgeous audio in the living room. I still intend to do a fair amount of listening in the office, but now quite a bit more in the living room. I now want to control the Sony players through CDJ (or perhaps PartyGUI) in both the office and the living room. I have a few thoughts on how I might do this, but before I bias the feedback I'd rather first ask for suggestions from people who have already done something similar. To focus the suggestions, I'm prepared if necessary to put another PC in the living room and LAN connection between the living room and office. Ideas, anyone?
