Curious if anyone has tried remapping the buttons on the Zwift Play controllers to work with TrainerRoad? I’d love to be able to use them to change resistance mode and adjust intensity without reaching over to my laptop.
I imagine its seen as just a bluetooth keyboard on whatever device its laired to.
I’m tagging this as a feature request because maybe trainerroad could do the mapping in their software?
I am more interested when Wahoo inevitably brings virtual shifting to its entire Kickr lineup and opens up an API to other training apps.
Actually, no, because they use Zwift’s own proprietary protocol and not a standard specification, so I don’t think TR could do this unless Zwift opens it up for third party developers. I agree that it would be cool, though.
I just like the idea of you FaceTiming during a TR VO2 Max workout.
The elgato or mini keyboard could work. The longer I’ve worked in the tech field the more attractive a reasonably priced off the shelf solution looks.
Its crazy that it uses a proprietary protocol. I wounder how TrainerRoads relationship woth Zwift is and if they could get access to that protocol. I doubt many people are choosing Zwift specifically for the fact that they have a play controller, so opening up that protocol would only serve to sell more units.
