2) If you want to change what happens when you press Menu or hold Play while the Finder is the active application, you'll need to make the following settings:
a) "Global Mapping" is the wrong place for application-specific settings as it hardwires an action to a button, regardless of what application is active. Therefore, you might want to hit "Reset to defaults" for your Global Mapping table to bring back the Remote Buddy menu on the Menu button in all apps other than Plex.
b) "Default Behaviour" - which is used when no supported application is active or background-mode supporting application (like, f.ex. iTunes, DVD Player, ..) is running - is the right place to make this kind of setting. In your case, you'll want to choose
- "Behaviours > Activate Plex Behaviour" for the menu button
- "Put computer to sleep" for play (hold)
That, as well as the 'virtual remote' override in Plex Behaviour for up, down and system volume for up/down+hold is now working *perfectly*.
I must have set the default behaviour on the trial without realising it...
Thanks again Felix - I've already persuaded someone else to buy it (and use the exact same settings)
