Re: Using the on/off button on remote to start xine

[Lucas F. <ljf...@pu...>]

I have no idea if this will work, but you might try it.  We have irexec start 
off in the 'irexec mode'.  When in 'irexec mode' irexec will receive a 
command to start xine and irexec will enter 'xine mode'.   Xine will 
automatically start in 'xine mode'. When you quit xine, the irexec command 
that originally started xine will not be run because irexec is in 'xine 
mode'. Instead, the entries in the 'xine mode' will be run. The first entry 
quits xine.  The second entry puts irexec back into 'irexec mode' so the next 
time you press ON_OFF it will start xine again.   I've never actually tried 
this, though.

This is really very clumsy.  It would be nice if there was a toggle feature in 
lirc that solved this problem.

begin irexec
begin   # irexec start xine command
	remote = Sony_DVD
        prog = irexec
        button = ON_OFF
        config = xine --auto-play=d
        mode = xine
#        flags = once
end
end irexec

begin xine
begin
	remote = Sony_DVD
	button = ON_OFF
	prog   = xine
	repeat = 0
	config = Quit
end
begin
	remote = Sony_DVD
	button = ON_OFF
	prog = irexec
	mode = irexec
end
end xine
