General

This section of the plugin can send data to the LED controller
of your MSI MEGA Display.You can choose a context, a command and
three arguments (which can be replaced by variables)

Context

The context is the main option of the LED control.
You may choose MP3 to setup your display for MP3 playing.

Be sure to do an INIT at the beginning and a QUIT context
at the end of your LED control session.

Available Context values:
INIT =100
QUIT =101
EQMODE =102
CD =103
MP3 =104
RADIO =105
TV =107
DVD =108
VCD =109
PICTURE =110
RECORD =111
BURN =112
KARAOKE =113
SYSTEM_STATS=114
MUSIC =115
VIDEO =116
AP =118
SETUP =119

Command

With the command selection you can alter the display within a context.
For example VOLUME will setup the volume bar on your display between 0-16.
TRACK will show the track number from 0-99.

Available Command values:
INIT =0
QUIT =0
INIT2 =201
VOLUME =202
TRACK =206
TIME =207
PAUSE =204
CPU_RPM =0
CPU_TEMP=1
SYS_RPM =2
SYS_TEMP=3

Arguments

The arguments vary between the different contexts and commands.
For example the VOLUME command needs the first argument
to be a number between 0-16.TIME will need the last two arguments
for minutes and seconds.

Examples

A typical call will look like this:

INIT:INIT,0, 0, 0
MP3:INIT, 0, 0, 0
MP3:VOLUME, 16, 0, 0
MP3:TRACK, 15, 0, 0
MP3:TIME, 0, 12, 45

This will set your display to MP3 playing with a full volume in track 15 at 12 minutes and 45 seconds.

INIT:INIT, 0, 0, 0
SETUP:INIT, 0, 0, 0

This will display the text "SETUP" on your LEDs.

QUIT:QUIT, 0, 0, 0

This will reset your display and show the time.
