does anyone know the MIDI-Commands to control players 3 and 4 instantly?

In the given version combined with the VFX-CONTROL hardware, you switch between channels 1/2 and 3/4 and you can control the two viewable channels with the Vfx controller. all right.

But: I wanna have at least the main commands (PLAY / CUE / VOLUME AUDIO - VIDEO / FX ON) available for a secondary controller.


second idea/question:
As I am using the secondary channels for background video and cam I would like to control these in a easier way. So is the using of the GUI. As we're all talking about more than one screen you might be the good guy in development (ahead from the other companies) who is using the multi-screen possibility which formerly was a part of Vfx (and the earlier MV progs). I don't know how much the code changed. But it was windows-based, not bitmap-based before. So it would be easy in my (not-developer) eyes to make a new window available for the secondary players which can be dropped in a second monitor to keep an eye on what's playing. just think about this.
I know that TEKYES and the guys are doing awesome jobs with only one monitor. but there is the possibility lying in Vfx and I would loooove if you make it usable.

1-There is a command into Vfx mappings file that change the control of 1&2 to 3&4. This command is : SHIFTMIDICHANNELS

So for your new mapping to control 3&4 I bet you would only need to adress MIDI channel 3 & 4 like in the old MV7.

2-Adding a 3rd screen to Vfx ? Ok, noted on the to do list.

Cool help. Thanks a lot!!!
