restricted access in Maestro?

[compressor12345]

Two videos, two buttons, one menu.
Can I restrict acess to either video
by requiring a password entered with
the numeric keypad on the remote?

In other words typing "1234" will let
you access video one, typing "5678"
will let you acess video two,
and typing "12345678" will let you acess both.

How?

yes it can be done, and it has been mentioned a couple of times in a few threads, cant find them atm tho.

basically you'll need a menu for each digit select which will comprise of the 10 numbers and maybe an enter key to play it.

there is two ways you can work it, only proceed to next menu if you pick the right one, or take all the numbers and check it later.

the first one is easiest, you link the correct number on each to the next menu, the rest you may as well link to the first menu, or whever.

the 2nd one involves saving each selection into GPRM's and checking it after the last selection.

a good idea would be to start with the first way, then if you need it more secure (or harder to get in), then use the other way.

have a go at it now, the script is actually not much at all, (actually possibly just the play both code, unless you use playlist), but the 2nd way has a lot of script.

enjoy
