Is it possible to have the 6-button keypad on the 635 emulate the left/down/right/up/enter/esc keys in Windows?

thanks

You mean using the actions screen?

I guess....I just want to use it to navigate through a front-end (for a HTPC) in Windows. I really don't care about navigating through screen menus.

thanks

Understood....

Give me some time to check something

OK I'm back

I think there is no such function supported

Maybe CF can help you about this

In the other hand you can raise a feature request in LCD Smartie Site about it

actually its pretty easy to do. Someone just needs to write a program (in whatever language they wish) that can accept a keycode as a command line param, and then post it to the system, just as if the keyboard had sent that keycode. Then all you would have to do is goto the actions screen in LCD smartie, and when whatever LCD button is pressed, you could run the program u just made and supply whatever keycode you want. For anyone that knows how to program in an executable language, this should take a couple of mins to make.

Is this display USB or serial?
