Keyremap plugin - remaps keys in rockbox

[korvin]

worstest plugin ever, it's easier to modify source code with keybinding and build/compile rockbox firmware from scratch + install it, as to force this plugin it to work. It does nothing after applying new keybindings.

@korvin you can also make a plaintext file and import it

likely you are just picking the wrong contexts

what device and what are you trying to remap?

Hi, I'm trying to get the volume keys on my Fiio M3k to go to next/prev song on a locked player, i managed to make it work on the wps screen, but as soon as i lock the player, the keys go back to fast volume changes, also, how do i make the changes not temporary, i always need to remap everytime to do this, thank you, it's a very powerful tool

[Bilgus]

Set Core Remap should load the keyremap next boot

I committed a patch that should allow you to remap while the player is locked grab the latest dev version (12/31/2022)
Reverting this adding CONTEXT_XXX_LOCKED will allow either behavior

@Isaac so are you trying to make it behave like the original firmware - change volume when unlocked, and skip tracks only when locked?

in case you didn't know there's already a default key mapping to skip tracks while locked: hold the PLAY button (small circular one) while pressing the volume buttons.

Ok the key remap plugin now has _LOCKED contexts added for devices with HAVE_LOCKED_ACTIONS

so far thats the M3k, the ClipV2, ClipPlus, ClipZip

you will need the latest dev version (>= 12/31/2020)

here is an example keymap.txt for the clip(s) to remap the volume buttons to volup and voldn
and disable the regular action of left and right (skip prev/next) while locked
(and be sure use 'advanced key lock' set to allowing track skips)

To apply use Import within the plugin once you save to a .txt file

Code: [Select]

# Key Remap
# Device: Sandisk Sansa
# Entries: 5

# Each entry should be PROPER_CASE and on its own line
# Comments run to end of line

CONTEXT_WPS_LOCKED = {
    {ACTION_WPS_SKIPNEXT, BUTTON_VOL_UP, BUTTON_NONE},
    {ACTION_STD_CANCEL, BUTTON_RIGHT | BUTTON_REL, BUTTON_RIGHT},
    {ACTION_WPS_SKIPPREV, BUTTON_VOL_DOWN, BUTTON_NONE},
    {ACTION_STD_CANCEL, BUTTON_LEFT | BUTTON_REL, BUTTON_LEFT},
}
note: you can use ACTION_REDRAW instead of ACTION_STD_CANCEL
if you want to supress the 'Buttons Locked' message

Whoah, than you, that's a life saver!
