ecschnei Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 Hey all, Is there a way to map the 0-9 keys on the sr-260 so they can be used in the roku driver? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonic30101 Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 Doubt it since the Roku remote doesn't have any of them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ecschnei Posted January 26, 2018 Author Share Posted January 26, 2018 We have a pin # set for the adult accounts so I was looking for a better way than over over select down over select up up over select...blah blah blah...1st world problems I guess...Thanks sonic30101 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ecschnei Posted January 26, 2018 Author Share Posted January 26, 2018 However, I'm not smart enough to program...but this looks like it could work right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMHarman Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 However, I'm not smart enough to program...but this looks like it could work right?Yep control 4 could map more of the remote to the room command set. End users would have to recreate the driver as it is encrypted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaphod Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 Yes - is the existing driver IP or IR? This is exactly how other types of drivers can work. But someone will have to do some work redoing the driver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roku use this functionality in their app so search and keyboard of your phone translate to the device and screen. Makes inputting passwords etc so much easier. Or searching for titles. I've never written a driver of any complexity just hacked the roku mini drivers for additional channels. Based on that I imagine this is a pretty simple copy paste of an existing code line for an arrow key x 10 and then changing the SR input variable and the output variable as detailed above.

christophers Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 i actually have the same use case is @ecschnei @alanchow did you look into this when creating your driver for things like plex? or does it have to be done in the master driver only?

Cyknight Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 While you could possibly do this to add 0-9, the use case is so limited that it's not worth the effort, unless C4 or the other driver's developer want to incorporate it. With a-z, theres just so few places where it would be useful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
christophers Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 0-9 i think is what we want. it asks you a PIN to log into that account, and i was actually surprised when i had to use arrows and "ok" to enter the pin instead of just using the numpad. just an idea.

Yes I know that is what you specifically are asking for. But...that's just you, and to underscore that, you're the first to ask. We're NOT talking about a simple IR driver that can be modified in seconds. Not even sure if the C4 driver is open to begin with, so other than C4 doing it, it would require developing a completely new driver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is the information I was missing...knowing what it takes someone to "modify" a driver like this case. Thank you for the answers everyone...

They updated it in November maybe someone with Control4 ear could ask them to add the 30 or so lines of code to do this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Copy the down command 10 times and map the 1-0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I understand it, c4z is a zip file and can be unzipped. Whether the files inside are locked or not is another question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rexabyte Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 The driver is encrypted, if it wasn't I would make the change. This is something Control4 would have to add. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
