Description Blackketter Dean 2008-12-30 16:02:36 UTC
Fab4 isn't responding to IR remote events similarly to SB3. Here are a few I noticed.  (Let's get the two devices consistent first, then discuss changing them consistently.)


The following don't work:
- Now Playing (should toggle between Home and Now Playing)
- Shuffle
- Repeat
- Now Playing
- Browse
- Search
- Favorites
- Sleep


From Now Playing:
- RIGHT should go into the current playlist
- LEFT should go Home
- ADD should delete the current song from the playlist and go on to the next song

In text entry screens:
- Digit keys should jump to the first letter on the button.  Hitting the button again should move to the next letter.  (After pressing a digit button and waiting one second, the cursor should move on to the next character).

In number entry screens:
- Digits should enter the number and move on to the next digit.

In sorted lists:
- Digits should jump to the first item starting with the first letter on the button.  Subsequent presses should jump to the subsequent letters on the keys.

In unsorted lists:
- Digits should jump proportionately within the list.

Pressing a volume button works fine, but the up/down keys are ignored until the volume pop-up goes away

I put these all together in one bug, assuming that many could be fixed in one fell swoop.  They should split into separate bugs if they can't be fixed in one go.

Slider controls (e.g. Settings/Advanced/Sound Effects/Volume) should also respond to Up/Down on IR remote. This would match (for example) the bass/treble adjustment sliders on Boom.

Tom's reworking the event subsystem in SqueezePlay to better handle IR/touch/etc. This should address a number of the following issues.
Comment 4 Wadzinski Tom 2009-03-25 09:09:50 UTC
fixed much of this multi-bug.  Remaining details covered in new bug 11465
