[VU+ Duo] Long Red

[Delagroov]

Yes Pc software.

Just tested and added extra devices. I tested duo/uno and ultimo and still in device mode...no long color supported.

As i had several years ago I had to contact Logitechsupport and they enabled it for me in my database, which is lost due to reprogramming I assume.

But okay i use activity mode and then it works.

Hi,
for the long press option a Duration-Option must be activated by the support and they usually do it for the power button only. I am also quite sure that a long press did not work for me in devices. With the delays you can only decide how often a button will be pressed in a certain amount of time. This is a totally different situation.

Hi judge,
when you have the same problem with the original RC then it must be one of your plugins or settings which filters the long red.

May all be very well the case, but long-buttons work for me on all my Harmony's out of the box. So I find it strange that this apparently is not the case for every one.

It's a fresh install, no settings back-ups or anything. Has happened with the last few releases of VIX, not sure which build the problem started with though.

There is simply no command associated with long-red in ViX; not sure if that's ever been the case.

Hi Rob,

Button Mappings

Short Red** & *** - Show current channel EPG info (ViX Single EPG).
Long Red*** - Show current event.

from the release thread.

It definately worked for me on earlier builds, not sure what build it stopped working on.

Ahh, good find, thanks. Never too old to learn .......
I'll report this as a bug.

Just learned that long-red is set to activate HBBTV. We must have missed this one for the release threads.

In a future release several more buttons will be user-adaptable; long-red will probably be one of them.

Thanks for the update Rob, atleast now I know I'm not going crazy & it did work for Show current event once...

 

[Rob van der Does]

Naahh, ViX doesn't make you crazy

Hi Rob,
it seems that ViX handles long presses a bit different then normal E2. It works in device mode (EPG + OK tested) but real long presses like power toggle doesn´t work in device mode and you need activity there. Tested with 785.
