I'm glad you like it. Of course it would be possible to read in an existing configuration from a plist file and to create a small tool / system settings plugin to modify it. Unfortunately, I don't have the time for this rather big rewrite at the moment, but maybe somebody else has. I just created a repository at Github for collaboration. This shortcutrecorder control might be very useful then.

Installed it on Snow Leopard/P5W DH Deluxe. The only problem I had was that the folder /usr/local/bin did not exist. I manually created the bin folder inside /usr/local/. Otherwise, an awesome “driver” for something I never had hope for
One suggestion though:
Is it possible to write an interface for it so that the key presses emulated can be defined by the user?

Thank you very much for your work. Is great on Mac OS X Snow Leopard 10.6 on a P5W DH Deluxe.

I’m happy that it works! The “maximize” button (the one next to AP LAUNCH) should send esc now. Same link as above.

wow Tino, you are my savior!

it works perfectly fine with -plex option except for ‘menu’ button doesn’t act ‘esc’ key.

could you please change the code again for this?

for me, it’s much better to use DH remote with -plex option.

thanks!!

Here you go: AsusRemote-v0.2.zip. I changed the code so it sends key presses for up/down/left/right and return. However I couldn’t get the daemon to launch Plex with a button on the remote.

By default, the program will work as before. You have to launch it with the parameter “-plex”. It will then send keystrokes to the active window.

Please try it from the command line first. You should see “* Emulating key presses for Plex *” the program is working in “Plex mode” …

To run it using launchd, add the parameter “-plex” to the program arguments in the plist.

Warning: I can’t guarantee that it works. I even couldn’t test it as I don’t have access to my Asus remote at the moment.

I really appreciate for your kindness!

I want ‘ap launch’ button to launch Plex. (instead of front row)

and on plex, ‘up down skip play menu’ buttons to the same as normal apple remote(arrows and return and esc keys)

thanks, again.
