Hijack stalk volume translations

Hijack stalk volume translations - 19/05/2003 08:58

I have the following translations in my ir_translate section:

;; Increase stalk volume control speed
KVolUp=KVolUp,KVolUp,KVolUp,KVolUp
KVolDown=KVolDown,KVolDown,KVolDown,KVolDown

After experimenting for quite a while, it seems that these translations only work when the player is in Tuner mode, and not when it's in MP3 mode (I don't have an Aux input, so haven't tested that). I'd like to know if this is normal - do other people see a similar effect, or is it just me? And is there a way to make it work in all modes?

FWIW, I don't have any other translations for KVolUp or KVolDown - for completeness, here's my entire translate section:

[ir_translate]
Visual.L=Visual.L ;; don't override longpress
Visual=VisualSeek ;; from mlord 2003-04-03
;Four.L=Four.UL,QuickTimer.N ;; a longpress works even in Tuner mode
SelectMode.L=SelectMode.UL,QuickTimer.N ; Select Mode is timer in all modes
Four.AM=Four.U,QuickTimer.N ; Rio Remote '4' shortpress Mp3/Aux

;left/right menu navigation with stalk
KNext.L=KNext.L
KPrev.L=KPrev.L
KNext=Right.U,KNext.N ;left/right menu navigation with stalk
KPrev=Left.U,KPrev.N

;; Increase stalk volume control speed
KVolUp=KVolUp,KVolUp,KVolUp,KVolUp
KVolDown=KVolDown,KVolDown,KVolDown,KVolDown

;; Fix broken v2.0 tuner seek
PrevTrack.LT=b9460c.L
KPrev.LT=b9460c.L
NextTrack.LT=b9460d.L
KNext.LT=b9460d.L

Mmm... looks good to me. Volume up/down should work regardless, and there's nothing in Hijack to (intentionally) prevent it. Try the stalk volume controls by themselves, without any translations. Do they work?

As an alternative, you can also use VolUp and VolDown on those translations, to the right of the equals sign.

A bit more description of what I get:

In Tuner mode, I get the expected translation, and volume goes up or down by about 2dB per press.

In MP3 mode, I appear to get the untranslated press coming through , as volume goes up or down by about ˝dB.

I'll try putting VolUp/VolDown on the right-hand side an see how that goes.

This Works!
KVolUp=KVolUp,KVolUp,KVolUp,KVolUp,KVolUp,KVolUp
KVolDown=KVolDown,KVolDown,KVolDown,KVolDown,KVolDown,KVolDown

This not!
KVolUp.L=KVolUp,KVolUp,KVolUp,KVolUp,KVolUp
KVolDown.L=KVolDown,KVolDown,KVolDown,KVolDown

Any idea?
