Add Point / Touch - keyboard mapping

[jasonwkl]

Is it possible to add Bluetooth controller mapping to screen so it can be used on RPi fashioned much like a switch dock for playing android games.

[srevinsaju]

Did you mean, opening the Bluetooth panel with a keyboard shortcut, or switching Bluetooth on/off

[jasonwkl]

Maybe this is not for the capability of this software but I was thinking more of letting a Bluetooth game controller map to a region on the screen, so that people can use a game controller to control buttons that is on the screen.

I wanted to map some customizable points on the screen , similar to BlueStacks and RemixOS, but the problem is scrcpy is running on SDL. I have add this to 'my virtual feature list', to use a screen shot from the device and then let the user map the points, like buttons mapped to keyboard. What is your opinion on this? Or did I misunderstand your feature?

[jasonwkl]

That exactly what I am thinking of. Sounds awesome. Can't wait to try it out.

@jasonwkl , its finally a feature. Get guiscrcpy v2.0 with Keyboard Mapping and let me know how it is https://github.com/srevinsaju/guiscrcpy/releases/tag/2.0

Firstly thank you for this project,
Can you give us an example how we can define a key mapping to do some event on scrcpy screen ?
in video or gif animation it will be perfect.

@karousn I may not be able to give full video of it afaik, maybe these steps might be helpful

• Connect your device
• Type

guiscrcpy-mapper

in your terminal

• If everything goes successful, you should see your phone screenshot
  
• Follow the on screen instructions
• Close the window, now open guiscrcpy
• Click this button to enable the mapped buttons

thank for the fast response.
I am not familiar with python script so i need some help in that.
To execute : guiscrcpy or guiscrcpy-mapper i have a problem with PyQt5.sip No module named 'PyQt5.sip'
for guiscrcpy i can executed with python3 -m guiscrcpy but i can't do the same with guiscrcpy-mapper
in stackoverflow i see this : https://stackoverflow.com/a/59712128

@karousn we have a discord channel https://discord.gg/TyhR3B for guiscrcpy related issues. I can help you out in details, there
Maybe your default Python is 2.7
What does

python -V

give?

[karousn]

python3 -V : Python 3.8.2
python -V : Command 'python' not found
Btw, using python3 scripts/guiscrcpy-mapper i am able to see the key mapper and it generate a json file called guiscrcpy.mapper.json on .config/guiscrcpy so for me i can start prepare a file to my need but i need an example.
using the guiscrcpy mapper i have this message error:
Lets Check Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/lib/python3.8/dist-packages/guiscrcpy-3.3-py3.8.egg/guiscrcpy/lib/mapper.py", line 185, in keyreg fixy = rely * int(dimValues[1]) ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: '2960\nOverride size' PyQt5.QtCore.QPoint(365, 355) LAST
That why i need and example file to generate manually if we are in need.
Thank 👍

Thanks, Seems like your device is using a Override resolution. This doesn't work, I will need to add that feature too. Thanks for finding this out.

@karousn For your reference
This is a sample config file for the mapper json

{"key": [], "pos": [], 
"S": [296.4705882352941, 357.16129032258067], 
"K": [652.2352941176471, 417.0322580645161]}

The S key corresponds to the position x=296 and y=357
The K key corresponds to 652, 417
etc
