Re: Serial plugin doesn't process repeat data?

Great, thanks so much!

Also, the TCP Events (a fork of Network Sender/Receiver) doesn't seem to have this problem so I'm not sure if that is helpful or not?

Anyways, thanks again so much for the help.

Re: Serial plugin doesn't process repeat data?

I just replied but deleted it since I didn't see your response.

Thanks for researching it. I somewhat understand what you're saying but can you give me advice for my problem or how I can solve it?

Is it possible for me to change the default behavior or implement a workaround?

Re: Serial plugin doesn't process repeat data?

Thanks very much for testing this.

Did you create a COM port (virtual or otherwise) and then send actual serial commands to it?

I've sent you a PM with more information and my egtree file. Thanks so much for any help!

I'm using EventGhost 0.5 rc4 and the built-in Serial plugin but I'm having some problems.

When the serial port receives repeat data in a short amount of time, it will only process the first command. For example, I send the ASCII string "KBD_RIGHT\r" from another device to my PC running EventGhost ...

How can I wake a display? (i.e. move the mouse?)

I've set my PC to never go into sleep/hibernate. Instead, the display "sleeps" (or "turns off") after 15 minutes of no activity.

Typically you walk over to a PC and wiggle the mouse or press a key to "wake" the display.

How can I simulate this with EventGhost? The monitor is already turned on, so ...

Anybody have any Python examples using COM? (re: IUnknown)

I'd like to write a simple plugin that allows switching of the default audio device using Vista and Windows 7.

This was easy to do under XP (using public API calls), but under Vista and Windows 7 it's hidden away in undisclosed DLLs.

Somebody reversed engineered the Windows control panel (sound ...
