Hi there! First of all, congratulations for a great product. I'm trying Remote Buddy and I'm utterly impressed by its integration and functionality. However, before purchasing it though, I wanted to tinker around a bit just to see what I could do with it.
I noticed you hadn't included actions for controlling the screen brightness (specially useful for those of us with a laptop and a second monitor), and I decided to do it myself:
First I tried to create an action which directly implemented the keystroke of F1 and F2 (the keys for brightness down and up respectively on my MacBook keyboard) but Remote Buddy didn't seem to register those keystrokes. Nothing happened on the dialog box when I pressed those keys.
Then I tried the Applescript way. I wrote a super-simple script telling the System Events application the key code for F1 and F2 (107 and 103 respectively). The script worked like a charm. But when I introduced the code in the Action Factory and mapped it to the appropriate Behaviour, it wouldn't work. The remote does recognize the command and Remote Buddy tries to execute the script, it even shows the Brightness Control Window (the grey one with the white sun on it) but the "slider" doesn't move in either direction.
My question is if there is another way to implement this action, or if there is something I am missing... it's really frustrating! I tried several workarounds, but I can't seem to assign and application based on this script to a keyboard shortcut in order to assign that shortcut to a remote's button and I've run out of ideas. Any help with that?
Thanks for your time and, again, for a superb product.
