EventGhost

Thanks, it did the trick.

Actually, I just renamed one file, config.py to something else, and as I suspected, it was indeed the offending file.

A week or so ago, out of nowehere, EventGhost stopped displaying the contents of the configuration tree and the event log. No point describing it, just look at the screenshot.

The problem is only in the display of the widgets. The configuration is loaded and is working normally. I can execute every ...

One other thing, regarding the presets. About the GetPresets action, which should return the list of available presets. How does it work, really? There is no direct return value from the SendMessage, it seems that the reply is asynchronous callback. But, I can't find the way to access this callback ...

You're right, it is unreliable, because of a bug. I posted my half-cooked solution right after finding it, and didn't realize that it isn't perfect. After a day of using it, I too have stumbled upon this. In some cases, it doesn't work. After some testing with OSD function (instead of presets), I ...

I checked and I couldn't find any non-unicode build. I remember downloading FFDShow from free-codecs site (not the usual sourceforge site) a couple of years ago, but can't remember whether I intentionally downloaded a unicode version or whether that was already the only option then. Right now, I ...

Now this one is interesting. Intended directly for Bitmonster.

FFDShow plugin has a bug. Well, maybe we could call it a feature , but it is not a nice one. It is driving me nuts.

What I'm trying to do is switch active profile using ffdshow plugin (of course, on a running graph). I'm trying to use ...

Well, well... finally somebody is developing something useful in the field of speech recognition for non-English speakers, which should be interesting for most of us here...

Let me start by saying that a month or so ago I tried to incorporate the speech recognition functionality into my ...

The situation is even worse than I thought - it's a hardware problem as well. Judging from posts in this forum , the CEC protocol utilizes separate HDMI pins, which are usually not connected when using DVI-HDMI adapter. So unless you're using graphic card with a built-in HDMI port, there's no chance ...

As far as I know, such plugin for EG doesn't exist. Not because nobody wouldn't think of it yet, but because there is no support for HDMI CEC protocol for the graphic cards yet. I may be proved wrong, but a couple of months ago when I thought about doing what you are suggesting, I googled and ...

Thanks for all the answers guys. Jostein, your idea is good but unfortunately not suitable for my particular case. The thing is, I would like to have multiple bits of information displayed at the same time stemming from different actions (although all would be triggered by the same button). The time ...

I'm trying to implement a kind of "info screen", which would display multiple items at the same time. For instance, I would like to display the current time at the upper right corner, the date at the upper left corner, and current volume and/or movie position at the bottom border. I would like to ...

Excellent idea, Pako. I think this is really the best solution, if Bitmonster agrees. The whole functionality is then encapsulated as a separate action, no need to burden FindWindow action with that, and no need to add another plugin just for this one-liner. Great!

Speaking of proverbs, in ...

Hello Pako,

Yes I agree completely with your point - a single-line plugin is a bit funny, if it can be as easily achieved with a line of phyton script. But (and this is not insignificant) for many people it is much easier to use a plugin, however small, than to write a single line of phyton code ...

Hi everybody. As this is my first post, I would first like to thank the author(s) for this great, useful, and altogether very nice piece of software. (As a software developer, I should know.) I've been using EventGhost for a few weeks now and so far, it's been working perfectly for me (using several ...
