What should I be doing with my .txt CSV file to get the JSON? I think we added a JSON validator that broke text csv importing. Just tried it.

quattleb Posted June 29 Report Share Posted June 29 I'm using macOS 13.4.1 and wanted to check the Admin Mode Your suggested Terminal command returns "zsh No such File or Directory" when I use --- Mac Instructions: In a terminal: echo -e "{\n \"showAdminPanel\": true\n}" > ~/.config/SkipApp/config.json --- I turned on Show Hidden files and my home directory is devoid of any /.config subfolder.

Sinan Posted June 30 Report Share Posted June 30 I have worked out all of the Pronto codes for my BenQ EW3280U monitor. I am attaching my json file to this post: BenQ-EW3280U-TV.json One problem I have left is that the volume up/down buttons don't send a continuous signal.

RColeman Posted July 12 Report Share Posted July 12 (edited) Checked my Mac and the config.json file does not exist. Checked my entire home folder and came up empty. also does not exist in the application container. Nevermind. Saw the previous comment too late.

Once done, you're device will show up in the app's wizard for you to assign buttons. Please share devices here and I will include them in the software for the community. I'm struggling to add the TXT files via this step, considering the SkipApp file selection dialog filters the file list only to JSON files. Tried both on the Mac (selecting of .txt file is disabled) and on Windows (by forcing *.* at the filename field to make the file show, but failing to import the selected file since it's not a JSON file.) Do you have a sample .txt format for me to try to import, or can you share the python script to convert them to JSON files? I'm using version 0.9.92 Beta of the SkipApp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worked with the linked script, but I had to adapt the protocol from "Pronto" to "PRONTO" otherwise the remote logs would give a message of invalid protocol.

Ah yeah, sorry I did that tweak too, forgot to mention! How do you view the remote logs out of interest?

geobrick Posted August 6 Report Share Posted August 6 On 6/4/2023 at 7:14 PM, jason said: Thanks! Are only those keys missing? Is there a windows media center remote with full keyboard keys? No remote that I know of has all the keyboard commands but the "Microsoft MCE Keyboard" device available in the harmony app seems to have all the keyboard commands available to assign to any remote button. It allows me to use the remote to execute keyboard commands or combos for shortcuts on a windows PC. I use it for activities involving Kodi or media monkey or anything else on the PC that I have connected to my TV. For example, I put app shortcuts on the task bar and can execute them from a remote as needed or at the start of an activity. I can send the WIN+4 command to open an app then send WIN+5 to run an NirCmd that switches the default audio device. Upon switching activities, I can send an Alt-F4 command to close the app and WIN+6 to switch the default audio device back to what it was. It all dependent on the order of the shortcuts placed on the task bar. When using Kodi with a Flirc USB on a Raspberry Pi, I think I needed to learn the letter 'T' command and the 'delete' command from my harmony remote configured with the "Microsoft MCE Keyboard" device. That way I was able to toggle subtitles with a single button and delete a video file with one button (no need to use the context menu to delete something). That's what I'm hoping to do with the Skip 1s. Other than that, the remote seems to work well and I'm getting used to the button placements. I'm also learning the app (just realized today that I can add delays). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyC Posted September 5 Report Share Posted September 5 So I added a new brand with the JSON file format and I added the up, down, left, right and back but but it seems to be sending two commands as it jumps two icons when navigating. I have the repeat set to 1 and it does not allow me to go lower. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WheelsofTime Posted November 4 Report Share Posted November 4 I feel like I'm missing something simple but trying to be self-sufficient. When I use the attached .txt file I get the following: C:\Users\#####\Downloads>python csv_to_skip.py c:\users\#####\documents\Topping-DX5-AV#Audio#Misc.txt > "Topping - DX5Pro.json" Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Users\#####\Downloads\csv_to_skip.py", line 44, in <module> "label": row[0], ~~~^^^ IndexError: list index out of range I'd like to learn how so I can add more as I can and then upload successful files here. What am I doing wrong? (Windows 11) Topping-DX5-AV#Audio#Misc.txt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
