Re: [slim] Could this replace the Controller scroll wheel?

That is how Lazy Search works; the format currently in the database is specialised for the numeric keypad on the remotes but the principle is the same whatever number of keys you've got. The trick is building a database that allows that search to happen quickly. I've looked at the Controller and had a few ideas for a Lazy Search equivalent, but I've not had the time to put any of them to code yet, I'm afraid. This does seem like a nice interface idea - it would be interesting to try. It comes down to licensing, though, as it's not free.

That is what the LazySearch plugin does, isn't it?
