DirectInput Axis And Button
Nov 2, 2009Ok, so I am attempting to try my hand in directinput, I got the code up and running within VB.net, it recognizes the controller and almost all buttons work, but for some reason 2 or 3 of the axis do not work on each controller.I have tried this with an xbox360 wireless controller and a Logitech wired controller (ps2 style) they both show the correct amount of axis on each controller, but do not work correctly.[code]I have looked everywhere for my problem, but the issue is, I am not exactly sure what the problem is to search for.if anyone also knows how to access the "X" (power) button on the xbox controller, that would be awesome as well, because I want it to interact with my program!and if you don't have a wireless receiver a wired one is exactly the same...

View 6 RepliesList Name Of All Connected Devices On Lan?
Oct 28, 2010i am trying to enumerate all IPs on my local network, but i am not having any luck. The only thing i have came up with so far is a really tedius "get my own ip and scan the subnet with pings" which surely isn't the best way? I am really only trying to get the ip of a tivo box, and i can determine it's a tivo by mac address or name. My router lists the "computer name" of the tivos as a long string of numbers with the prefix "tivo".What about broadcasting a ping packet? I could also attempt to connect with telnet to port 31339 on every one of them.
View 8 RepliesAdd Support For MTP Based Devices?
Apr 3, 2007I'm writing a media management tool and want to add support for MTP based devices.I've been reading through the SDK docs and with the help of some C# examples have managed to make a start on getting some VB code working.
I've come across a few anomolies that I hope someone can help me with!In the examples IPortableDeviceManager.GetDevice appears in C# to receive a string array. But in VB.NET it appears to only receive a string. I have a similar issue with IPortableDeviceManager.GetDeviceFriendlyName which according to the C# samples appears to receive a char array, whereas in VB.NET it is accepting a UShort.

View 3 RepliesForms :: Hide Hidden Devices
Dec 9, 2009Been a long time since my last thread but here we go.I'm using VS.NET 2010 Prof Beta at the moment and I'm trying to list all Nic Cards and their settings into a text box. I succeeded with a script from the web (which had an error in the first place) and some adjustments to it.
It lists all hidden devices too (as to be shown in Device manager: Show hidden devices) I worked my way around it and let it jump to next if it doesn't have a IP address, but I find this a bit clumsy and want to really skip them if they are hidden and not just the way I did this now.
Plus it still does show the same NiC (different name, same MAC#) in the list because it has an IP, but in Device manager this one is hidden.[code...]

View 3 RepliesVS 2005 Polling Data From Devices?
Aug 19, 2009We are currently polling data from devices and sharing these data using shared memory. So other applications can get the data off from the memory mapped files.
Now we are moving on to web and we are still using the same method of using asp.net to read data off the memory files.
Would like to find out if there are better methods of doing this?
