RM-X... Back from the dead!

a question like that is never off-topic.

simple as this: find me an example plugin source code, and ill port RM-X to *ANY* media player. in fact, it doesnt even have to be limited to media players... there is talks of throwing it into a home-brew game engine as the primary means of input for it.

really tho, media player classic, and windows media player where my next two players of interest for porting. its just a matter of me becoming willing/unlazy enough to search for a proper SDK for them.

see, the thing is.. RM-X itself supports plugins. some people said it was dumb to make a plugin for a media player that supported loading yet another plugin format... but, the way i see it as this: each and every player RM-X is ported over to, now has a common plugin format. with RM-X plugins, you can compile them once, and run them on every single build of RM-X out there without any modifications.

----

so, if *ANYONE* wants to do the research and find me an SDK for *ANY* application pretty much, and link me to them, i will look into a port. this is actually what happened a week ago with the BSplayer port of RM-X.

[quilty]

ok, I see. If I accidentially find some wmp plugin sources, i'll let you know :-)

new rm-x for winamp 5 works good. Still didn't notice a bug.

ok, if its just showing up twice, then ignore the extra one. unless, there is other axis that are missing. you gamepad has a custom control panel applet instead of using the standard windows one it looks like, meaning it only displays the info it wants to display, isntead of *EVERYTHING*, wich is what RM-X does. for some reason, the device is reporting an extra axis to DirectX, and RM-X mearly enumerates for everything possible.

as for the right axis possibly not working right, the device may be incorrectly registering it as a slider instead of an axis, and *soon*, i will have slider support. altho, if this is true, its still technically the fault of the driver... considering you can have up to 6 axis on a single device.

ive actually had the chance to work with a couple of these (insert game console here) control to USB adapters a bit, and ive found they are pretty good at reporting invalid data, and not being up to par with devices *MADE* for the PC. its pretty much all in the drivers tho. RM-X mearly regurgitates what it was fed by the drivers for the device.

I think the second one rmx sees from the left one should be the right stick's axis. The pad functions correctly in games.

I have a feature request, though it may be difficult/impossible...

variable rate of fast forward/back and track skipping depending on how far an analouge input is moved (eg joystick or analoge gamepad stick)




edit: also, make the config window less fulgy

variable input stuff is actually already in the works, and has been for quite some time now.... i want to implement it directly into the RM-X core tho, instead of at the plugin level, this way *any* future plugin could use said features.. hence why its taking a bit longer.

as for "less fulgy"... heh... a lil more specific perhaps? i realize that parts of the GUI need a lil touching up.. but a lil more specificity would be nice.

[mark]

well it uses the standard fallback windows font (unless you specified one that doesnt come with XP)

The interface looks a bit daunting, perhaps some more nicely laid out stuff for the inputs and whatnot. also, do something about all the white, and a logo somewhere'd be nice.


or, ya know, ignore me and finish it first... ¬_¬

is it because im using line-item style configuration for my interface? there is a reason behind that, and it has to deal with the way the vBase SDK is layed out.

as for the fonts, ya, i never really spent any time of those... i had issues with opening fonts and Win9x blue-screening because of it at one point as well. ive been more focused on the back-end of things instead of the GUI.

yeah 'k. worked out whats wrong with my pad yet?

i probably wont have a fix for it for at least 2 weeks or so. im actually busy here at my *REAL* job, as well as packing up to be out of state on "vacation" for a week. development will still continue a bit on my laptop while im gone ,but i cant promise anything for the time being. i'll let ya know tho when something does happen.

[mark]

ok, i'll quit pestering you then.

[Darkain]

alright. i know its been a bit of a delay since the latest beta post... couple reasons for that.
1) ive been out of town
2) in fact, im STILL out of town. yay laptop and wireless access!
3) ive been focusing most of my efforts of RM-X's plugin development tools now, so that way 3rd party developers can make decent plugins for RM-X. i'm also working on getting the RM-X SDK compilable in Visual C++ 6, 7 (.net, 2003), and 8 (.net 2, 2005)

once all of the microsoft compilers are covered, i plan to cover a couple of those "free" GNU compilers as well.

i just want everyone to know that things are still moving along, and moving along quite smoothly.

[Darkain]

i just uploaded a new build: RM-X Media Edition v 1.0 Beta Z1. should be much faster and alot more stable at this point.

EQ and Volume controls are now accessable via the RM-X Configuration GUI. this really isnt too useful of a feature yet, but i plan to expand upon it more via some plugins later on.

Does the os.execute scripting command work in your LUA implementaton? If so could you/anyone give som examples on how to execute a file? I can't get that function to work.

Also, is it possible to get winamp to open a certain playlist using the Creative Remote?

i have removed most of the major LIBs from LUA for security reasons, because there is the potential for auto-execution of code on remote machines, and i dont like that.

RM-X SA has the full LUA implementation, but as always, this isnt available.

i was working on the playlist stuff from winamp, but then got sidetracked when the Nintendo DS came out, and now ive been focusing on DS WiFi hacking. i'll be back on RM-X eventually tho.

[Darkain]

http://www.darkain.com/rmx.php?rmxid=8

here we go. a new build. its been a while, but then again, ive been busy w/ other stuff.

the RM-X API is basically complete at this point, so now its time to start working on RM-X add-ons.

[lhunath]

My remote seems unable to make RM-X respond.
I have your latest Final installed (the one built on Jan 1st 2005 - yet, I remember the previous builds didn't work either).

I have RemoteCenter running and IntelliRemote running. I have installed Microsoft's IntelliType drivers as required by IntelliRemote. RemoteCenter works as it should. I have both the RemoteCenter and IntelliRemote plugins for RM-X installed. RM-X has been configured to have the play/pause button order winamp to play/pause the current song, both in RemoteCenter and IntelliRemote sections of the configuration. I tried having a look at the console but it doesn't show anything when I press any buttons, I have no idea how to see whether RM-X gets a signal.

In RemoteCenter, when you press the START button twice, it lets you choose an application to control, RM-X or IntelliRemote are not in the list. Winamp is, but if I choose it, RemoteCenter controls it with it's own key file, assuming it's Winamp 1.x. Crappy control, but you knew that, as it's probably why you wrote this program.

Edit:/
I don't think IntelliRemote detects anything either, btw. Since it does suspiciously little whenever I press the buttons....

RemoteCenter Version: 1.40.26
LanguageID (should you care): 1043

[Darkain]

OS Major/Minor? (eg: WinXP SP2)
Remote? (eg: RM-900)
Winamp? (eg: 5.04)

its gonna be a pain for me to debug any problems with this at all, since my SB-Live is now dead. i havnt been updating these two specific plugins at all ever since my card gave out.

[lhunath]

So I heard, I'm sure it must be hard. All you have is ancient code and your imagination =P

OS: Windows 2003 Server Enterprise (No SP) (if you care, Build 3790)
Winamp: 5.05
Remote: (as visable in the INI, RM-1000)

I don't think Winamp has anything to do with it as your RM-X Stand Alone (when it was still available for free) didn't respond either. The Remote itself should only be an issue for RemoteCenter as I understand it, and the OS, I don't know really, depends on your programming, I take it. Though 2003 and XP should be completely compatible. (*tries setting RM-X & RemoteCenter & IntelliRemote into XP compatibility just to see whether it changes anything*)

[Darkain]

IntelliRemote wont work w/ the RM-1000... wait, we are talking about the Extigy, right? then ya, IntelliRemote is useless. btw: the original IntelliRemote required IntelliType to be installed to handle the media output functions, but i removed that dependancey when i ported it to RM-X.

RemoteCenter likes to save multiple config files everywhere. try hunting down all of them. also, RemoteCenter requires the usage of a "key" file. there should be something like RM-X.Key in its key folder. i'm not 100% sure on the filename, but it should be something like that. w/o the key file, things wont work right.

[lhunath]

I read Extigy hadn't been tested with IntelliRemote, I thought it was worth the try, though. Are you saying, btw, that you incorperated IntelliRemote into RM-X, so that the actual IntelliRemote program itself is no longer necesairy to communicate with the RM-1000?

I found two RCMAN.CFG files and edited one, then copy pasted the content to the other before posting my problem. Thus they were identical. These are the paths:
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\My Documents\RCMAN.CFG
C:\Program Files\Creative\SBExtigy\RemoteCenter\Rc\RCMan.CFG

As for the 'key'-file, content of RMX_RemoteCenter.key:

Ps./
Is RMX_RemoteCenter (supposed to be) in your applications list when you doubletap START and see the list of currently running programs to control?

Ps./
Are you supposed to first tell RemoteCenter to 'control' RMX_RemoteCenter through this way before you can send commands through to RMX?

[Darkain]

the original IntelliRemote application isnt needed anymore. its entire code base was ported over to IntelliRemote.dll, which is an add-on for RM-X now. IntelliRemote wont support the RM-1000 because the extigy uses a different code interface.

as for remote center, and looking at those config files, its kinda obvious that i havnt touched it in a year or two... it still says "0.9.x" and "RM-X Stand-Alone"

RemoteCenter, at least the newer versions, like to make 2-3 copies of its config files, i know there is a copy in the RC folder, as well as the "My Documents" folder, but i cannot remember if there is any others. i would suggest trying to find all instances of the config file to make sure they where all updated w/ the RM-X config info.

you dont have to select RM-X from RemoteCenter. the way i set it up is to become the "default" application is no other app is specifically selected. this *might* become a problem when something like an explorer window is selected, as there is a specific key file for that, however, i cant really remember the priority order on something like this.

ive been wanting to buy a new SB-Live, but i just dont have the $$$ right now... and what money i do have is currently being devoted to the Nintendo DS WiFi hacking project. so ya, i really dunno when i'm gonna be able to get around to fixing up these two plugins for the current RM-X standards and bug fixing them.

my bad, you already said you searched for the config files. :P i'll read thru my old notes to see if i have anything else thatll help out tho.

Thanks for the info and willingness to have a dig one of these days.
Is there, however, nothing I could do? Some debugging as to trace the path of the signal, or something. Is there a way to see whether RM-X gets something from RemoteCenter, whether the remotecenter dll you wrote receives something?

I just changed all my creative apps to 'Compatible with Windows XP' but it didn't help.
Ps./
"Exe0=C:\Program Files\RM-X Stand-Alone\RMX SA.exe" in RCMAN.CFG
I have no such file or folder. Shouldn't it be referring to the Winamp Plugin? ;O

[Darkain]

OK... so i quickly glanced over the source code, and quickly noticed two flaws in it.

1) there is a crash on exit bug that for some reason wasnt crashing
2) there is a bug w/ "Message Only" windows, which is something i was using in this plugin... but not initially. ahh, the joys of changing around the way libraries work.

anywho, try out the attached file and let me know if it works for you or not. if it does, itll be included w/ the next major build.

Still a N/a when I press something :/
but what about the missing file? Doesn't RemoteCenter now send the stuff to "C:\Program Files\RM-X Stand-Alone\RMX SA.exe" which doesn't exist on my PC? Odd.

no, it doesnt send anything to the actual EXE file. i personally dont even know why it wanted it in the first place. you could try changing it to winamp's EXE to see if that helps.


here is another attachment. it makes the RM-X window visible, just in case RemoteCenter for some reason wants that. and if this still doesnt work, try selecting the window from RemoteCenter to see if THAT works.

this build will pop up a message box each time it receives notifications of any kind, so you will know when it is/isnt working

[lhunath]

Ingenious, it works now. Heh. RemoteCenter is a peculiar little piece of software. Just your new update did the job.
Thanks a dosen =)

If you could remove the debugging features for me now. Hmm, I feel I owe you one, but then again, perhaps that's already undebted by helping you improve your program.

Thanks alot for your excellent support and availability.

a) did you change the RC config file to point to winamp, or just left it how it was? did you have to manually select the RM-X window? or did it just *work*?
b) new version attached

The new dll you attached was plenty to make it work, as I attempted to say =)

b) new version attached

Works like a charm.

I did considder it. Yet I was thinking about whether I could get a licence for RM-X Stand Alone. I noticed you haven't really decided yet what kind of licencing you'll offer, though. Think I could get me one for a price?

Edit./
Perhaps you could add some of those messages to your console window? So that it's easier for people to debug any possible future problems.

Edit./
Hmm, is kind of annoying having that bar in your taskbar =)
Must be something inbetween what you had and this, since RemoteCenter's able to detect Winamp as well. Is there a way to just hide the taskbar thing perhaps? I don't know, I'm merely guessing.

Gosh, wish I could start apps with it as well; perhaps your script (*does some research*) or perhaps I'll need your Stand Alone.

[Darkain]

all donations will be honored as payment twards SA when it becomes available. i'm not in it to make money, i'm only in it to pay for the equipment to support.

i'll add some more console support soon

scripting support isnt available *yet*. the lua engine is integrated, yes... but it doesnt link in to any of the RM-X core functionality yet

yes, SA is what you need to launch applications and web pages. it already supports this functionality

new version attached that fixes the windowing bug. turns out it was another bug in my base API that has changed since the plugin was initially made.

if there are any other problems, feel free to let me know. but right now, i think this one is pretty much it.

I'll send you a fiver and good luck with the rest of the development.

a bit off topic for this thread. check out my web site. i post everything there. basically, i need a new wifi stick to be able to continue, and its in the mail... but friday night/saturday morning, disaster struct, and im at another major setback.. its also worth noting this set back effects RM-X and every project im working on, as i dont have access to my desktop ATM. http://darkain.livejournal.com/187328.html

i'll post when things are rolling again.

As noted in the RM-X CLOG (ChangeLog), things are moving right along again with continueing bug fixes and feature improvements. i'll probably try to push for a 20050110 beta later tonight.

[Darkain]

Its been a while, but I thought it would be noteworthy to mention that RM-X version 1.2 is about to come out of Alpha/Beta/RC phases and go public. Quite a bit has changed since the ye old 1.0 that is available in the Winamp plugins section.

Two weeks from today (on teh 17th), the RM-X team will evaluate the stability of the project, and if all goes well, RM-X v1.2 will go public, including the much awaited RM-X Stand-Alone.

If you wish to check it out, then go ahead and get it from the RM-X Download Page.

To help ease usage of all of the new features, I am working on documenting as much as possible over at the RM-X Wiki

[Darkain]

Alright, there we go. RM-X Media Edition v1.2 (20060217) is out now. You can download it from the RM-X Wiki.

Good program man!

How can i assign in Winamp version to "OK" the "RETURN" keyboard key and the other bottons of my Audigy2 ZS Platinum RM-1500 to other keyboard keys?


Thanks!
