Wiimote controlling Winamp (testing)

***READ THE DESCIPTION FIRST***

I wrote some simple scripts in GlovePIE to control winamp.

This video doesn't show the finished article, this is purely testing to get the right gestures + forces. (You might notice the Down flick to go back in the browser needs tweaking)

Its hard to hold the Wiimote infront of the camera to flick it. But when you have the space to flick it properly, it works perfectly!

The controls:

Flick Up: Select all tracks
Flick Down: Browser back
Flick left: Back 1 track
Flick right: Forward 1 track

Hold B & Twist to left: Seek back
Hold B & Twist to right: Seek forward

- & + = Volume up/down
Home = Start/Stop

Hold B & pitch back: Window select

Key 1: Windows Start
Key 2: Execute Winap .exe


This script can be found @ http://www.wiili.org/forum/glovepie-wii-mote-scripts-t360-s287.html

Still needs tweaking, but is still nice to use :-)

Thanks due to Carl Kenner for making it possible to use the Wiimote outputs in windows :-D
