EventGhost

Funny story. I seem to have used the Auvisio remote like an idiot for the past two years, not knowing what brilliant work skat had already done. :lol: :lol: :lol:

I was wondering about the "Exclusive" section in your XML file. Those do not seem to activate, when I start XBMC through the 'Start ...

First off, thank you very much Wharf! I was waiting for a thorough explanation and you delivered!

Life would be too great, if there wasn't, of course, a problem lurking behind the next corner.
I have been unable to copy/paste your code into an XML file and get EventGhost to open it.
I also notice ...

Yes, I can control XBMC the entire time, no problem! I'll now read into "controlling multiple programs" with my remote.

Thanks again.

Dear Walter,

I can report that everything works now, despite my apparent blindness when it comes to copying code ha.
Thanks so much for your help, you are a star.

Strange, when I copy/paste your thing into an empty python script, I get those spaces automatically. I will delete them!

That's what I have been doing all along when using your code.

I still get an error message though for some reason.
This is how it looks on my EG by just copy/pasting your code into the script.

I thought as much. I still cannot get it to work though and I think my command line options must be at fault.
I seem unable to incorporate those into your template, could you take a look.

I need to incorporate this into your template but I keep getting errors.

eg.plugins.System.Execute(u'C ...

Thanks Walter,

"Copy to Python" is greyed out. I cannot select it. Any ideas why?

Edit: Nevermind, I didn't understand what you meant. The Renamer now starts using your script. Do I need to do the same for Ember Media Manager as well and this solves my problem?

Thanks again!!


Edit2: I think I ...

Hello Walter,

to narrow down the mistake, I created an entirely new Eventghost script.
I changed the path to include \\ and started it as Administrator.

from threading import Thread, Event

def theRenamer(theRenamerThreadEvent):
eg.plugins.System.Execute(
u'C:\\Program Files (x86)\\theRenamer ...

Ah, thank you Walter!

I am getting an error message when I add the python script, any idea why?

from threading import Thread, Event

def theRenamer(theRenamerThreadEvent):
eg.plugins.System.Execute(
u'C:\Program Files (x86)\theRenamer\theRenamer.exe',
u'',
0,
False,
2,
u'C:\Program Files ...

Oh... I cannot program/script. Guess I have to live with it
Thanks anyway Walter

Hello Walter,

Thanks for your reply and English is fine! To use the scheduler and retain control while those are executed, how would I go about doing that?
I added the scheduler plugin, but it's asking for an XML file. Should I create a separate XML file with those "directory watch" parts?

Edit: I ...

Frohes Neues! Hat jemand vielleicht eine Idee? Habe ich es schlecht formuliert?

Ich grüße Euch,

ich poste auch mal hier im dt. Forum, weil ich die mir hier entgegen gebrachte Hilfe eher verstehe :lol:.

Ich m├Âchte im Prinzip nur die Kontrolle ├╝ber mein XBMC mit der Fernbedienung behalten, also weiter XBMX bedienen, w├ñhrend
EventGhost an anderer Stelle ein Makro von oben ...

Thanks for your help master!

I have looked at your XML file with Eventghost but I still don't know how task create/switch would help me
keep using XBMC with my HTPC remote, while there is another program running in the background.
Could you please explain that for a noob. Thanks!
