logi - Logitech R800 to OSC translator

logi intercepts button presses from Logitech R800 remote control and translates them into OSC messages as follows:

Button	OSC message
<	/remote/logitech/r800/press prev
>	/remote/logitech/r800/press next
🞂	/remote/logitech/r800/press start
🞂	/remote/logitech/r800/press stop
⎚	/remote/logitech/r800/press black

NB: On each press the 🞂 button on R800 alternates between the start and the stop commands.

By default logi will send messages to an OSC server on IP address 127.0.0.1 and port 6260. These can be changed with the --address and --port options respectively.

In order to do that, you have to override them in the [email protected] file. For example:

sudo systemctl edit [email protected]

and add the following lines:

[Service]
Environment="args=--address=10.0.42.123 --port=4567"

Share and enjoy.
