Steering Wheel Control Delay

**SKiTLz** · 02-11-2011, 11:06 PM

So I wrote this config almost two years ago. I honestly barely even remember what most of it means. All I know is I finally after a lot of work got my steering wheel controls working.

The problem I've always had is my steering wheel buttons are toggles. For instance next track is a toggle up or toggle down. I often go to skip a track and I end up skipping 3-4.

I need to tweak the delays, but I can't remember what I should be changing. Hoping someone can save me spending all the time I did last time trying to come up to speed on MDX configs.

You can crank up the global input timer. That will slow everything down which is undesirable in my setup.

Another option is declare a countdown variable. Add an "AND" statement to your above code so it checks against the countdown variable. Note: I have trouble with these type of logic statements where the THEN is supposed to do more than one thing. They work until I re-run configurator when they disappear. I have no doubt I'm doing something wrong.

Would upping the minimum_delta_vote_time="50" on the buttons I have issues with not work? That is delay the time between sending the keystroke correct?

I did a little reading last night.
