Need a very basic script

[Orpheus66]

What i need is pretty simple (i think), all i need is the script to push dpad Up every 2min. The reason is i am on a work laptop and every 10min i have to enter my username and password if the computer is not in use. However, i am able to connect my laptop to my plasma TV and watch movies on it but it is very annoying to get up and push the Up key every 10min.

Can anyone help me out?

edit: ummm, ya i guess i was a little hasty. Will this work

$begin = TimerInit()
While 1
    sleep(120000)
    $dif= TimerDiff($begin)
    send ("{UP}")
WEnd

You could try 2 things

try this script

Global $dollarsign = 1

If $dollarsign Then
   Push("Up_Key")
   Wait(1000*60*2)
Endif

or look at the helpfile at

loops

Send()

Have a look at these two functions, found oddly enough in the Help file, go figure..

Send

Sleep

With the example codes, you should be able to come up with pretty much what you want. Post what you come up with if you need more help..

Probably, but leave out the timer stuff, use one or the other, if thats all the script is doing.

Which Laptop is this?!

What is the OS installed?

Which player do you use?

I have a laptop that also turn on an LCD TV and use Windows Media Player and jetAudio, both have the option to disable the screen saver in Windows as I'm watching a movie!

I did not understand what you want ...

Edit: Why "Up Key"?
