Should now work with the latest hijack versions and fixes an http port bug.

I am retracting this comment because I found the feature I was asking for. SOrry for the confusion and it is now a perfect tool.

By the way, you might want to edit the website to make it a bit clearer that you can send commands via HTTP too. I nearly didn't try the application because I rarely have the serial port plugged in at home - but when I downloaded it, I found out I didn't need to!

has anyone ever thought about making something like this for us Linux users? Like a nice docker app that will go into the "notification area" in KDE/GNOME or Openbox for me.
The spec is over at freedesktop.org
later,

You kiddin'? The first time you posted about it I D/L'd it. It gets CONSTANT use at work, where my Empeg sits quietly on my cube shelf (displaying for all the world to see..) and plays out my computer speakers. A sweet little utility.
Thanks!
Me.

Wow! I too was unaware that it worked over http! I always thought this was for serial only. sweeeet!
Would be super cool to have some of these features worked into other aps like Jemplode and Tony's LogoEditor. How about a screen grab or something? would be cool to have a mini display above the clock with the same info that would be on the screen.

Using http, the Fast Forward and Rewind commands (not using hot keys yet) both cause the player to Pause... Am I doing something wrong?

It might just be that I haven't updated this thing in... well... forever. I'll take a look at the source code sometime in the next few weeks... I have finals this week so I won't have much time right now.

For anyone who hasn't tried this yet, give it a shot. It's cool little tool! You just download and run the exe. There is no install. I've attached a screen shot of it in action.

How about adding support for the Windows "key" as a modifier (like Shift,Alt,Control etc).
Most Keyboards come with the Windows Key, and being able to assign hotkeys to Windows either with ot without other key combinations (Shift,Control,Alt etc) would be useful.

That is good idea, actually. Can't think of anything else, other than a little annoyance feature - If you enter the name/IP into the HTTP dialog box, exit the program, and rerun it, the name/ip is 'missing'. (It still connects, but if you need to go see what it's using, you can't.)
Otherwise, I don't have a need for anything else. I'm easy.
Me.

WOW. I can't BELIEVE i didn't ever use this because i thought it was serial only! This thing rocks! Very well done my friend. The key modifier would make it damn near perfect, especially linked to the windows key as suggested. sweet!

my Empeg sits quietly on my cube shelf (displaying for all the world to see..) Ah, see... there's the difference... both at home, and at work, the empeg is about 6 inches from my keyboard where I can watch the visuals instead of getting any work done, so I don't need the controls in a dock applet. (Oh, and I'm not on Windows either, so I'd have to wait for the KDE/GNOME version). Hmmm.... say.... now that I've finished doctoring my Costa Rica photos... /me goes to look at the KDE link...

If your logitech keyboard is a fairly modern one [i.e. less than 2 years old].
It should send "multimedia" keys to Windows for all those special keys on your keyboard.
These are trappable by programs, however the program needs to be able to abvle to handle them.
[they are like standard keys though, so the same "multimedia key" on your logitech should send the same code as a similar key on say a Microsoft keyboard.]
There are many articles on Microsofts web site about how to remap these keys using Registry entries.

You kiddin'?? That's what the EmpegVNC is for!
Since I'm running windows, I made a small little 'webpage' that has the VNC plugin on it, so my Empeg's display is right on my destop, not in a window in the way! Muahaha!
Me?! WORK?! Never!
Me.

I'll probably go to hell for this, cuz' I can't remember the author's name, bu - oh, CharcoalGrey. His XML webpages for the Empeg. The applet is in there. Just snip and paste.

Could I edit the html to remove the "fake empeg" image and just have the display? Better yet, how about having the window auto-size to 128x32 (size of the empeg's display) w/o the navigation buttons? Then I could drag this window to a part of my screen and use either the VNC or the empegtray to control it. ?
