My church and I have just learned about openlp.org. I have been interested in finding a software similar to openlp. I have also been reading some of the questions about remote controlling the advancement of slides or sequence of operations. Some questions were asked about using a single keystroke (left or up arrow to advance the slide). Then I read where many people would like to use a remote (because of the single keystroke). I have an idea, but have not tried it to see if it work. My idea:

Use an inexpensive wireles remote that is compatible with Microsoft Office PPT or similar product.
Download and install a software application that is similar to Xpadder (xpadder.com).
Configure the Xpadder or similar software to meet the wireless presentation controller of your choice. IE: One button on your remote may simulate Ctrl+Alt+Z, another Ctrl+Alt+A, etc...
<p>
My thought is that many of the wireless remote PPT controllers are designed to have the functionality of a mouse and a slide advancer. Programming the button, roller, slider, rocker arm, etc. on the controller via Xpadder would allow two different simultaneous senerios that can be configured for openlp. 1.) Advancing the sequence of operations. 2.) Advancing the slides. Has anyone tried this or have any ideas?
