So, ok, if you aren't using all those audio system control buttons for anything, why wouldn't you want to repurpose them for use with Eventghost?

Because audio system does respond to them, obviously.

Also, I have another Sony remote which has a lot of vcr-related buttons and just perfect for even advanced pc-controlling... but misses that audio system on-off switch button. =\

For sure, everything Qt "hangs" for 2 seconds if *power* button is press (not "slide switch" on the side) - guys from QTLockscreen replacement experienced it. I feel it too, if listening to radio without analog bypass, and I press power button to see time in lockscreen

No idea if it's related to current problem, though.

Hmm, could be the problem. I wonder if there's a way to detect the change in the UI and work around it...

(BTW, did the QtLockscreen guys find a way around the problem? <Copernicus crosses his fingers>)

Thanks for all the hard work (:

Now I want to do something for you. Do you have dutch translation for Pierogi, if not and pierogi supports languages. I am happy to do the translation although I always use english om my device :P

I would _love_ to see Pierogi get translated into Dutch! (Or, honestly, any other language.) Qt has significant support for internationalization, which I've pretty much been ignoring, as I'm really not fluent in anything but English.

Let me see what I would need to do to set up Pierogi to manage multiple translations...

As far as I'm aware - no

You may want to poke topic as for "why it happens" in CSSU thread (yea, I know...), as they're ones that update Qt things there.

I took a quick look; I doubt that the list appearing on that page covers the Samsung device, because it's a little too old (the timestamp says it was posted in January 2012, so it pre-dates the release of the Samsung).

But also, I've been trying to avoid getting any codeset data from commercial sources; Pierogi is currently a fully open-source project, including the keysets.

I suspect that the data they're talking about on that site is from the Bang & Olufsen company itself, so I'd probably want to avoid it...

no no bad idea to dich propetiery for the shake of functionablity

i respect your thoughts and myself would never give an idea to put non free parts in open projects . insted if fesiable create something like pierogi-restricted-extras which when installed can provide pierogi with the functionablity but do try avoid adding them directly to pierogi itself and sabotaging the open nature of the project'
