If you have any questions about it, just send me a private message on the VDJ form.

Update info will also be posted in my blog.



This first version has hardcoded mapping (i will change that later.) At the moment it detect the  following keys from Powermate: Q,W,E,R,T,Y . When it detect any of these it sends a CTRl-SHIFT-ALT +  Char to vdj. So a Q from the Powermate results in a CTRL-SHIFT-ALT-Q sent to VDJ. 

You must have .NET 2.0 installed on your computer for it to work. If you don't have that 
you can download it here:

- Using it as a Video Controller for VDJ
------------------------------------------

Here is a description on how you can use the Griffin powermate as a video controller with VDJ. With it you can crossfade video output, activate/deactivate and select FX etc. 

You can assign it to anything you want, but here is the settings i use to controll video with it. 


In the Powermate properties application, set: 

Rotate Left - Send Key - Q 
Rotate Right - Send Key - W 
Click & Rotate Left - Send Key - E 
Click & Rotate Right - Send Key - R 
Click - Send Key - T 
Long Click - Send Key - Y 


In VDJ, create the following Keyboard ShortCuts: 

[CTRL+ALT+SHIFT+Q] video_crossfade(-200) 
[CTRL+ALT+SHIFT+W] video_crossfade(+200) 
[CTRL+ALT+SHIFT+E] video_select_fx(-1) 
[CTRL+ALT+SHIFT+R] video_select_fx(+1) 
[CTRL+ALT+SHIFT+T] video_fx 
[CTRL+ALT+SHIFT+Y] video_slideshow auto 


This will give you the following functionality: 

Rotate Left - Crossfade to Deck 1 
Rotate Right - Crossfade to Deck 2 
Click & Rotate Left - Select prev Fx 
Click & Rotate Right - Select next Fx 
Click - Activate/Deactivate Fx
