Importing Behaviour Scripts

View

This posting is older than 6 months and can contain outdated information.

Hi There. First, thanks for the great application - I was an instant fan.

Anyways, to my problem: I created the Remote Buddy Behaviours and all works great on my mac. I exported the Action and Behaviour Scripts, but cannot figure out how to get the Behaviours imported onto another computer.

I can get the Actions to load, but would like for someone else to just be able to use the default behaviours - is this possible, or am I missing something?

Thanks.

These entries from the FAQ may be relevant to this topic:

Behaviours

How can I create my own Behaviours? (FAQ015E0240)
You can create your own Behaviours with the Behaviour Construction Kit. A video on the Remote Buddy website provides you with an overview and step by step instructions.

You can also find step by step instructions in the Remote Buddy Help under "How Tos". You can access the Help via Remote Buddy's icon in the menu bar and via the support area of this website.

Hardware - Apple® Remote

After uninstalling/quitting Remote Buddy, my Mac® no longer reacts to the Apple® Remote. (FAQ015E0241)
To enable you to use all capabilities of the IR Receiver of your Mac®, Remote Buddy is using its own driver. In contrast, all other applications with integrated Apple® Remote support usually use the OS X Apple® Remote subsystem.

As long as you're running Remote Buddy, Remote Buddy and its driver are responsible for turning the received button presses into actions. As soon as you quit Remote Buddy, this task is again handled by the OS X Apple® Remote subsystem.

If other applications don't use the interface to the OS X Apple® Remote subsystem correctly, this can lead to the effect that nothing happens when you press a button on your Apple® Remote. For as long as you're running Remote Buddy, issues like this are covered by Remote Buddy and it's driver and are therefore not visible to you. However, as soon as you quit Remote Buddy, the OS X Apple® Remote subsystem is back in control and any issues caused in it by other applications become visible.

Therefore Remote Buddy is neither the cause of the issue nor is it responsible for it. Instead, the cause of the issue exists independently of Remote Buddy. It's located elsewhere and can also only be solved there.

Although our products can't cause any such issues, we're regularly contacted about such issues and asked for help. In order to make locating and fixing the cause of such issues as easy and efficient as possible, we've developed a free diagnostics tool: Remote Control Diagnostics. It can locate issues with a single click and will provide you with information about the issue as well as with instructions on how you can fix it.

Hello Monica,

thanks for asking.

If you've created Behaviours of your own and want to share them with
others, all you have to do is:

1) Select "Export Scripted Behaviour…"
2) Transfer the file to the computer you want to use it on.
3) There either double click it and let Remote Buddy handle
installation - or manually move it to the user's Library/Application
Support/Remote Buddy/Behaviours/ folder.

What applications did you write a Behaviour for? If it's of general
interest, I'd love to have a look at them and if the quality is
right, put it online for everyone through Remote Buddy's online
update feature - and send you a free license code as thank you :-)

Best regards,
Felix
