I've found a few similar threads on the forums, but nothing recent that seemed to be describing my same problem, so here goes:
Problem one:
In Plex, I have disabled the internal Apple Remote (AR) support and am using Remote Buddy (RB) to control it.
I've customised the RB behaviours in the following ways:
- RB activates Plex when I hold the menu button.
- I added two actions to the Plex behaviour:
- Hold plus I set to "Toggle fullscreen"
- Hold minus I set to "Home"
These two buttons had no actions associated in the default configuration.
Now when I use Plex the plus and minus buttons no longer function. The hold plus and hold minus buttons work as expected.
I've been able to work around this problem by changing the plus and minus buttons to use cursor keystrokes. (I also tried Plex's Up and Down actions, which also worked but failed to trigger the interface sounds in Plex.)
I am, for the moment, completely happy with this solution, but thought you should be made aware of the issue, if you aren't already.
Problem two is more annoying:
Once I've activated Plex, if I then quit using the Plex window's close button or via Plex's own shutdown menu, RB stops responding.
I tried setting the hold minus button to Command-Q but the problem remained. So I set hold minus to bring up the RB menu. If I then use RB's 'Quit' command to exit, this is the only way I've found to exit Plex without losing access to RB as well.
