Great! It works!

I can write parameters even from inside the chrooted environment.

Now I only have to change remapping of function keys done by XServer XSDL in order to avoid "double" remapping of the same key, and I am done

Thank you!

_that's Kernel key remapping function works perfectly, I can use the following commands (in Android terminal or within the chrooted environment, as root in both cases) to enable Esc, Del, Ins keys, and to use special keys as Function keys without needing to press Alt/Alt Gr:

echo 3 > /sys/module/asusdec/parameters/key_flags

The problem is XServer XSDL.

Problem 1:

Xserver XSDL sees Esc, Del and Ins keys (corresponding to Back, Lock, Volume Mute dock keys) as if they were the same key, that in the default XServer XSDL config is mapped to 'Unknown'.

So even if you try to remap them, you can choose only one option for ALL of them.

Solution:

Do not touch XServer XSDL default key mapping settings .

Follow my previous post, point 2, and add to the $HOME/.lircrc config file the following lines:

begin
prog = irexec
remote = /dev/input/event1
button = KEY_ESC
config = xte 'key Escape'
repeat = 0
end

begin
prog = irexec
remote = /dev/input/event1
button = KEY_DELETE
config = xte 'key Delete'
repeat = 0
end

begin
prog = irexec
remote = /dev/input/event1
button = KEY_INSERT
config = xte 'key Insert'
repeat = 0
end

It is a problem of android kbd mapping, see next posts

Problem 2:

With _that's kernel key remapping functions, function keys (with no alt/Alt gr) and dock's special keys (with Alt/Alt Gr) are different key events, however XServer XSDL sees them as the same event, so you cannot remap them differently.

If you use function keys in your chrooted linux GUI, everithing is fine.

If you try to use dock's special keys (with Alt/Alt Gr to toggle wifi, bluetooth, adjust brightness etc.) you get the special key event AND the function key event at the same time.

So if you press Alt/AltGr+ToggleWifi you toggle wifi AND press F1 at the same time, so you may see the help window of the program you are using. And so on...

Quite annoying....

Solution

none found at the moment, I guess it would be necessary to modify XServer XSDL code.

Simply do not try use dock special keys (with Alt/AltGr) when you are inside your chrooted linux GUI :)

Anyway, thanks [MENTION=4878287]_that[/MENTION]!

I chatted with [MENTION=2683775]pelya[/MENTION] , see my comments on github:

https://github.com/pelya/commandergenius/issues/40#issuecomment-69906349

it seems to be a problem of your kernel-level keyboard remapping function: it sends correct Scancodes but wrong keycodes (always 0) for "fake" ESC, DEL and INS keys (checked in android with input event logger app) see my next post

https://github.com/pelya/commandergenius/issues/40#issuecomment-69908886

keycode and scancode swap for keys SLASH (Italian kbd: minus) and MINUS (IT kbd: apostrophe) may be a problem of the kernel remapping function or of CM11-CROMBI-KK, needs to be investigated
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
Thanks for your research so far! The kernel sends only one set of codes, those defined in linux/input.h, through the event interface. The keycodes you're seeing come from Android and it looks like you need to copy some lines from /system/usr/keylayout/Generic.kl to asusdec.kl.
[Asus Transformer TF700] pinaz:
You're right, thanks!

I solved the esc-ins-del problem in the following way

In Android terminal:

su
mount -o remount,rw /system
nano /system/usr/keylayout/asusdec.kl

then I added at the end

key 1 ESCAPE WAKE_DROPPED
key 110 INSERT WAKE_DROPPED
key 111 FORWARD_DEL WAKE_DROPPED

then

mount -o remount,ro /system
reboot

---------- Post added at 10:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:17 AM ----------

[MENTION=4878287]_that[/MENTION] : the swap between the MINUS and SLASH keys (respectively, apostrophe and minus in Italian keyboards) seems to be a problem at the kernel level.

I looked here:

http://www.win.tue.nl/~aeb/linux/kbd/scancodes-1.html#ss1.4

The correct scancode for US MINUS key is #0c (12) while for US SLASH key is #35 (53)

If I use [MENTION=2683775]pelya[/MENTION] 's input logger app, I get swapped scancodes (12 when I press US-SLASH/IT-minus, and 53 when I press US-MINUS/It-apostrophe, while it should be the other way round).

I did not notice it before because I was confused (in Italian kbd minus=US-SLASH, and apostrophe=US-MINUS, I saw KEY MINUS in the logger app when I was pressing It-minus and I thought it was OK, but it was not, I should see KEY SLASH instead!).

So I guess that it is something at the kernel level. [MENTION=4878287]_that[/MENTION]?

P.S. The same problem (swap of scancodes 12 and 53) happens also with an external wireless keyboard, so it is not a problem related to the asus dock kbd
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
These are exactly the codes that I get when I run evtest, which operates directly on the kernel's event interface.

The key near the right Shift key ("/" on US keyboards, "-" on my German one) sends keycode 53 (KEY_SLASH).

The key next to 0 in the top row ("-" on US keyboards, "ß" on my German one) sends keycode 12 (KEY_MINUS).

The same happens on my PC.
[Asus Transformer TF700] pinaz:
mmm

I am not an expert in such kind of things

Do you think it is a problem of Asus hardware? Why am I getting wrong codes both on dock kbd and on external kbd?

(A simple workaround in my case is to use key remapping function in XServer XSDL, but I would like to solve the problem)
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
No, the hardware works fine, and the kernel works correctly too - according to your own log output you're getting the correct scancodes:
[Asus Transformer TF700] pinaz:
You're right!

The fact that IT-MINUS corresponds to US-SLASH and not to US-MINUS was confusing me, sorry.

I repeated the tests having in mind the corresponding US keys, if I press US-MINUS I get 12, and if I press US-SLASH I get 53.

So it may be a problem of XServer XSDL.

I will check with [MENTION=2683775]pelya[/MENTION]

Thanks!

Hello guys,

I was looking for a place where i can download all the stock icons for the apps that currently exist in the play store (or at least the most famous ones).

I have been doing Google searches for all the apps one by one.

Was wondering if someone knows of a place where i can download a Zip file from, so that i don't have to manually search each app and downloads their stock icon separately.

Thanks in advance

Well after a lot of reading and watching videos(apparently not enough),i seem to have gotten myself into something i am not sure i can get out of.I followed all the steps to install TWRP on my SGH-I727 AT&T Skyrocket using Straight Talk.That went ok,i got it installed,booted into it and forgot to backup my data first!I did a wipe first.... no idea why

I had the CM-11-20140106-nightly skyrocket.zip file on my external sd card.I get to the sd card and see the zip file,select it,I clicked install and the screen says checking for MD5 file...Skipping MD5 check no MD5 File found,then FAILED.

I also put gapps on sd card and it installs that fine.

So now when i try to reboot it just goes to the twrp screen and i can't get any further.Of course i can't restore because i didnt backup...

i was running 4.1.2 jb,am i totally screwed or what?I tried to reinstall with kies but it won't connect to phone now

theres only one specfic gapps version that will work with cm11, its in their installation/instructions page.

I've been accessing Plex Server via DLNA using AVIA, and it's been ok. However I've noticed with larger video files, the Chromecast seems to stop for a few seconds every 10min or so. It's not always, but I don't want it to be any.

Would I have better success using the Plex App instead of AVIA or is this more of a hardware issue? (Plex Server is running on an old Dell p4 )

thanks.
[Google Chromecast] shelby04861:
Both work well for me. I have zero issues with the plex. Avia has only given me a couple issues because of streaming from other sites. The developers are all working very hard, so it more than likely will get smoothed out in time. I still want to get a NAS setup as well and see how that goes too.
[Google Chromecast] admin856:
IMO plex is much better than avia. Plex server automatically transcodes incompatible file formats for CCast plus it has subtitle support. However plex transcoding on pc needs very high cpu so it may not work properly on older hardware.
[Google Chromecast] walmartman:
Thanks for the replies! I'm not huge into media and all the codecs and containers. Typically I just rip everything to mp4 since it seems the most compatible for devices. All I want is to be able to stream the occasional movie and TV show that I have ripped, and typically those are shows for my son, so I don't need 1080p or anything, lol.

I do think the majority of my issue might be the network. I played about 3 hours consecutively of tv shows/movies fine last night with no issue. It wasn't until I started streaming the football game on my laptop at the same time that I started to get the pausing in the CCasted video again. Once I switched to streaming the football game over 4g connection instead wi-fi, the pausing stopped after a little while. At least I know networking and hardware a lot more than I do media encoding :)
[Google Chromecast] Asphyx:
MP4/H264/AAC should have no issues playing on CCast. If it stops or stutters then the cause is likely Network related.

Laptop streaming is probably connecting via Wireless. Thats half your Wireless Radio Bandwidth out the door.

I suspect thats all going to change if what I'm reading coming out of CES sees the market soon. Netgear has a new Router that claims to have 115Mps throughput on 2.4Ghz and into the 300s on 5Ghz.

Something that might help in your situation is to configure the Laptop to only connect to the 5Ghz side of the router. Then your Wireless traffic should not eat into the 2.4Ghz throughput. No Guarantees mind you but it's worth a try the next time you want to stream to both a CCast and some other device.
[Google Chromecast] sherdog16:
My guess is that it's the cpu. I run plex on a minimum spec machine and it runs okay until the computer does something the background. Then I see skips
[Google Chromecast] ETFoneHome:
I use Avia more because it can see the USB flash drive on my router and stream media from it. The only thing I don't like is that Avia does not show thumbnails of each file - only a default music note symbol for mp3 and video reel symbol for mp4. However, Avia does show thumbnails of media files on the device and on Plex Media Server on my PC. Plex is nice, but I don't want to turn on the high power PC just for it, unless it's necessary.
[Google Chromecast] jsdecker10:
That's very strange that you don't see thumbnails of your movies/video files using Avia. I have the paid version of Avia and it's up-to-date with all the recent app updates and mine shows each and every thumbnail with no problem...hmmmmm...man, that's really odd. Have you tried updating it? Is it the most current release? Have you tried clearing the app data/cache?
[Google Chromecast] ETFoneHome:
Yea I tried clearing everything. I think since Avia is not showing thumbnails for the USB flash drive on the router it's a router firmware issue. I don't think the DNLA feature is certified.
[Google Chromecast] Asphyx:
Yes that could be the issue, I'm going to make a Feature request at Plex to see if they can't add a priority setting for the transcoder which should help in cases like yours.

Plex can see those files as well you just have to map the flash drive to some section in PMS and you may need to refresh whenever you change the Flash drive.

In my PMS setup I have my main Media NAS (Roughly 12TB RAID) for most of my media and also have Two 4TB USB Drives plugged into the NAS and a Router for content I probably won't watch often. I use the same Folder structure I do on the NAS for each external drive and add the appropriate folder of each drive to the Sections that content should be added to. The Router tends to keep the same drive Letter no matter what drive I plug into it so my Router USB port is my sort of wildcard Media location I can plug any media into and with a simple refresh can see that media in Plex.

It really depends on the server aVia is connecting to. Some make Thumbnails others do not. Plex will actually send you Posters while other might send you screen caps.
[Google Chromecast] siratfus:
I didn't know you can use the avia app to access the plex media server. After I saw this thread, I immediately went into the avia app to try it out. I went the the "ADD MEDIA" and found my plex server and added it. When I click on the plex media server, it doesn't show any of my movies. I just see two top categories: ADD MEDIA and the name of my Plex server.

My plex server is installed in a notebook. And the movies are in the default video folder in libraries. Do they need to be in a specific folder?

CPU	Marvell 6281 1.2GHz

DRAM	256MB DDRII RAM

Flash Memory	16MB

I would expect the TS-112P to be significantly better than the no-P model.
