Title: Zaurus Remote With Tkc Players
Post by: jomo on January 12, 2005, 10:24:05 pm

Ok, guys,
  This joker went out and bought a few TKC apps (Yeah, I know  Blech, yech!!!  Phooey!!!  But I was so naive.  :^)).  I have been pretty happy with them overall, but then I went out and bought the Zaurus remote off of Conics.net.  Is there any way to get the Zaurus remote to control TKC music player?  Would it make more sense for me to shift from the standard Sharp ROM to something like Cacko or tkcROM which doesn't include the original Sharp apps?

Setup:
Zaurus SL-C860 with Sharp ROM

Run VNC server, http://sdgsystems.com/download.html (http://sdgsystems.com/download.html), on the Z and access and  control remotely using any VNC client, like http://www.realvnc.com/download.html (http://www.realvnc.com/download.html).

Nice answer, shame the question is about something entirely unrelated.

The remote sends keycodes to the Z just like the keyboard does. KeyHelper can remap those keycodes to whatever TKCplayer's interface expects, although it requires some config-file editing.
