BUTTON CHANGES - REPORT PROBLEMS HERE

[JdGordon]

iAudio X5:
- When exiting a plugin (e.g. jewels) with "joystick right" the plugin exits and then starts again.
- "Show ID3 Info" closes immediately when opened with "joystick right". If opened with "joystick press" (select), it closes at the next button press (e.g. "joystick down").

both fixed now

It it connected with possible start of remote to function on X5?

Yes, I'm working on that.

target: h120
when i go to delete a directory on the root of the drivei hold in navi go down to delete directory and press the navi right  then it asks if i want to delete this for a nano second then goes back to the root of the drive.  just updated to 8/16/06 9:24pm version and still does it.

[edit]had to specify how i get to that in menu because clicking in the navi it works but pressing right of thte navi does not work[/edit]

[JdGordon]

yes/no screen is really fixed this time..

A couple of things I've noticed:

H140, 060817 - 0540 (although I downloaded CVS when the latest build was 2006-08-17 09:38)

You still can't go up a directory on the remote (I know this has been pointed out, but it's uber annoying!)

On the recent bookmarks menu, you now have to use left and right to scroll through the bookmarks not up and down, which means you can't use left to exit and have to use stop, which makes it hard to use the unit one handed.

Keys for the text editor are completely weird: You can't exit from the main unit, stop goes up a line, left goes down a line, down does page down etc!

That's what I've noticed for now!

Cheers,

Alex

Bger is working on the remote (hopefully he'll commit fix soon)
the bookmarks screen sux and should be replaced... but the buttons are wrong and on the toto list..
I'm not sure what to do about text editor.. the new button stuff hasnt been added to the plugins correctly yet and its needed for the list to work (which is why buttons are all wrong).. i might just disable text_editor for the time being

OK, cheers.

Just a note - the reason I was using the text editor was I was trying to turn off the new horizontal scrolling behaviour, and didn't have a PC with me.  Seeing as the option is not in the menus, using the text editor on a cfg file was the only way, and I dislike the new behaviour so much I just had to change it!  I managed it in the end with a combination of remote and main unit!

Yes, I'm working on that.

And I'm glad you got it working, so now I have a slight suggestion because the menus don't work as expected to somebody used to the menus on the base X5 for the remote.  In the X5's normal firmware menus, the vol +/- are used to navigate up and down the menus, while the FF/RW keys are used to "select" (ff) and go "back" (rw).  Right now in rockbox FF and RW are used to go up/down, and vol doesn't seem to have a use (could be wrong on this point).

One minor bug (maybe just not a context coded for it yet) is that it seems that once you get to the "shuffle/repeat/showfiles" menu (the one you can get to directly from the main playing screen), the remote does nothing.  You can get back out of it, but you can't "do" anything there, and as the ability to quickly shuffle/unshuffle is a great feature in rockbox IMO, the lack of functionality of the remote here is somewhat crippling.

A more serious bug is that holding down the play key brings up the menu, then seems to trigger the shutdown of the player.  This IS the on/off for the player (it's even on a GPIO register instead of the normal ADC like the rest of the keys), but strangely, you hold the key down, the file tree comes up, and when released, then the main unit display goes off and you can STILL SCROLL UP/DOWN on the remote, and then the remote and main units power down.  I can't see that this is anything resembling normal behavior, so I think it bears mentioning.

I haven't used the original firmware, so I don't know how it uses the remote buttons. I just chose a button combination that I felt was practical.

Yes, that's why I called it a "draft" in the commit message. I haven't added all contexts.

That's bad. I have to rethink the usage of the Play button then.

[Mmmm]

there is no way to file browse UP a level using the H100 remote. You can't get out of a directory! 

I've restored the previous functionality of the H1xx remote stop key in the file browser which was to act as the back (<-) button on the main unit.

OK now?

[Davide-NYC]

You can now browse UP with the H100 remote.
Thanks Mmmm! 

[Mmmm]

But you cant stop with the H3xx remotes!

Fixed!

Thanks for fixing the Stop-Button on the H120 Remote.
But Im sorry I found another Remote Button Bug for the H120 Remote:
When you use the navi-wheel on the H120 Remote to fast-forward of fast backward a song the song doesnt start playback after you stop the forward/backward going. Also the whole H120 remote crashed, the only thing you can do is shut the play off. No other things, like going to menu, enter dir-mode, etc., are working. But the Main-Unit does work. When you fast forward/backward with the main unit a bit after you chrashed the remote, everything works fine again.

Very strange, Im not sure of it is a Buttan Changes related Bug but it start happening after the new system was implemented.

iAudio x5: CVS-061686
- Setting the date is shifty - you have to use "joystick left" only to change between hr, min, sec, date, year, etc.
- Changing foreground/background colors (General Settings/Display/LCD Settings) is impossible; any button either moves between R G B or exits the option
- There are also uncertainties between "play" and "joystick press", as in, sometimes Rockbox asks you to press "play" to do something (battery_bench for one) but pressing "play" cancels, and "joystick press" initiates the battery bench.
- In the browser after "joystick press" to bring up the file submenu if you use "joystick right" on "delete", Rockbox asks you if you want to delete but immediately returns back to the file submenu (as if the "joystick right" was pressed twice).
