EventGhost

When I try to run EventGhost via psexec, it won't start. It says it's looking for a file (which doesn't say which one). PsExec.exe -i 1 -d -s "C:\Program Files (x86)\EventGhost\EventGhost.exe" PsExec v2.2 - Execute processes remotely Copyright (C) 2001-2016 Mark Russinovich Sysinternals - www.sysint...

Now that Python 2.7 support has ended, are there any immediate plans to update EventGhost to use Python 3.x? I tried the latest beta; however, it's still using Python 2.7.

Yes, setup is easy.. but, you won't have access to the thousands of awesome Alexa skills which integrate very well with 3rd party services; especially, music services. Also, you can't really compare a cheap lapelier microphone against 4-8 far-field microphone arrays available on Amazon 3rd gen Echo ...

In the last stable release version 0.4, the webserver would trigger/generate events in the log called like: SamsungTV-OFF ..after sending an HTTP GET to the webserver. Now, the events are called: HTTP.SamsungTV-OFF It's not a big deal, but I have to rename all my webserver events to start with HTTP....

Thanks I actually already use IFTTT for many automations; including sending http webhooks to my EventGhost webserver. I really don't like the idea of involving my clunky mobile phone or a web browser; especially, since I already have a dedicated Windows server (which also runs EventGhost) ...and pre...

I just upgraded from EventGhost_0.4.1.r1722 to EventGhost_0.5.0-rc6. It looks like something either changed or broke with the web server plugin. After the EG webserver receives an HTTP get command, the respective EG event SHOULD trigger the associated USB-UIRT IR EG action . If I revert back to Even...

Thank for taking the time to respond. I will check IFTTT to see.

I was able to successfully setup EchoToEventGhost to have Amazon Alexa trigger EventGhost Events (thanks to creator of EchoToEventGhost): http://www.eventghost.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=7429&f=2#p54675 However, I'm curious if anyone has done the same thing with Google Assistant. I searched but, coul...

I just wanted to report back. I swapped out my old MCE IR with a new USB-UIRT (with 56KHz IR sensor). That thing works great as an IR "blaster" . It's able to reliably/quickly control ANY of my IR devices BETTER than the original IR remote controls. Plus, it's able to receive IR commands just as goo...

I made some really good progress for my tests. I added the web server plugin so I could control my TV via Cortana (using ifttt.com). Now, I can say "Cortana, Turn on my TV" .... "Cortana, Turn off my TV" ... or "Cortana, Turn off AC" . I got the idea from: https://www.reddit.com/r/ifttt/comments/5bo...

Awesome! Thanks again. I'll get to play with this tomorrow when I get my extender emitters tomorrow in the mail. If it works well, I'm going to swap out the MCE IR base with a USB-UIRT.

you can

Code: Select all

eventghost.exe -event "SamsungTV-ON"

I totally forgot! My old USB-UIRT had a builtin blaster right in the IR receiver. It actually worked pretty well. It looks like EventGhost supports the USB-UIRT anyway. I think maybe you didn't understand what I was asking about command-line capability. I want to be able to do something like: EventG...

Okay, I got it setup. However, my MCE IR device didn't come with IR emitters. I just ordered a couple generic IR extenders from Amazon. I was at least able to test IR code learning.. which works fine. I have a couple of questions... 1. So, how do I trigger the two actions I created below via command...

Thanks a lot for all the info guys. I'm ready to start. I have a few more questions: 1. Which IR receiver/blaster can I use that doesnt require installing a windows service or dll? I'd prefer a device that I can use that only needs a Windows 10 64bit driver only. 2. Is there a command-line utility I...

@kgschlosser thank you so much for the quick and helpful response. Honestly, I was expecting my post might go unnoticed. I have a Samsung is actually considered old these days... Model: UN55D8000 It's possible I dont remember correctly... and, remote codes would flip-flop back and forth between 2 co...
