Hey
Firstly, great program. I liked it so much that I paid and went for the full version - which is something I rarely do.
One thing - would it be possible to re-map the volume buttons so instead of being ^ and v (joystick), it was instead the volume buttons located on the side of the K750i which are used to alter the volume on the phone itself?
The reason is because of the tempermental design of the joystick, when you try to alter the volume, you often end up accidently skipping tracks (which is < > on joystick).
I looked at the script itself, and this...
[code:1]if (theKey == "^" || theKey == "u") {
changeVolume(5);[/code:1]
...implies that the volume buttons can actually be used to alter the volume, as well as the joystick (I believe "u" refers to the upward volume button), but when I try it, it doesn't work.
Having said that, I know absolutely nothing about scripting, so I may be tottally wrong....

Hi,
Unfortunately, the K750i platform doesn't allow us to override the volume buttons. The newer Sony Ericsson phone W550i do, however. Sorry.
Best.

Hmm...OK, the only reason I thought it may be possible, is because using the HID creator by SE, you can map the volume buttons.
Before I used Salling, I used simply HID profiles, with keys assigned to shortcuts within iTunes, and I could easily map the two volume buttons... ? |

HID is not Java. What I'm saying here is that it is impossible for a Java application to know when the volume buttons are used.

Ok, understood :)
Thanks anyway.
----------------
EDIT
Actually would it be possible to map two other keys? Eg. numbers? |

Certainly. The standard iTunes controller script uses "0"-"5" for rating. The others are free for you to hook up. And it sounds like you already figured out how to do that in the script.

Excellent, I just opened up the script and searched for all "u" and "d" and replaced them with "7" and "9", works a treat, thanks :)
Also - I noticed your avatar is a K750i, I was just wondering if you had any problems witht he stability of the bluetooth connect when using Salling Clicker?
Mine never seems too stable, although admittedly it could be because my bluetooth dongle on my laptop isn't in the best of conditions (its been stepped on accidently a few times!) |

Great. When connecting to a PC, I haven't seen any stability issues with the K750i at all. Others have, though, with really cheap adapters.

Hmm yeah, it seems to be quite an issue. Lots of esato.com members report problems maintianing connections over bluetooth.
My K750i is on the latest firmware, and my dongle is acutally a Belkin one, so not too cheap. Having said that it is only 10m one, so maybe I should try and get a 100m one. |
