Change pairing from Mute button to Menu button

Open ttimpe opened this issue 4 years ago • 2 comments

It would be nice if the button command that is sent to the TV to check if the connection succeeded was changed from the Mute button to something like the Menu button as the Mute button cannot be pressed when the TV has no signal or the audio is being routed through the optical audio port.

Thanks for the feedback. I could add an optional parameter that allows to set which key to send to the tv for this purpose. What do you think about this idea?

Sure, that's sounds great. Do, however, also consider changing the default key to something that every TV has available at all times like the menu button. Remember that many people may not have the TV and their computer in the same room while setting up the plugin.
