EventGhost

Read about "audio receiver" on a WinLirc home page.
I personally use it already 4 years with my HTPC.

AFAIK, EG do not have such feature.

Instead, if you using LAN router with network filter function, you can adjust and enable it.
Or, you can install on machine with EG some free or non free network filtering software.
And third way, will be acceptable for you only, if machine with EG do not need ...

I suppose, your machine with EventGhost is using, so called, "real" IP address, accessible from outside network (internet).
It is extremely insecure, because no one can guarantee, that your software, EG's web server in that case, absolutely error-free. Such errors can be used by a hackers to gain ...

It is also can be possible IR incompatibility with such kind of EventGhost actions (which depending on key pressing time).
I'm using "homebrew" IR receiver, connected to the sound card line input together with WINLIRC.

It is not impossible to display "Sleep Timer off" instead of "Sleep Timer 0". But it requires some reprogramming of the script.

About your second question.
Single press of remote's key should just display current value of SleepTimer. Additional key pressing with pause between each press no more ...

Hi Zhan ,

No no no. You have to add to autostart section a python script. And inside that script you have to add those 3 lines.
After that, you should save your config and restart EventGhost.

This is just a definition for variables for SleepTimer script. If they are missing, then SleepTimer will ...

Hi Zhan,

Have you added to configuration autostart section a python script with following values?
(Sorry for delay with reply, i'm not often visit to forum.)

Hi.

For vlc 1.1.11 and EG 0.4.1.r1534 on OS XP prof SP3 it's very easy.

I use following code:

Switch between "long" and "short" jump:


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<EventGhost Version="1534">
<Folder Name="JumpControlForVLC" Expanded="True">
<Macro Name="ShortJump" id="476" Enabled ...

When i talking "dig", i mean you have to find a workaround with USB-UIRT, to send random IR-codes, to control your TV. But i don't know how, because i don't have a USB-UIRT controlling device.
But the goal seems not to be impossible, because with scripting you can do nearly everything.
If you ...

It seems, i totally misunderstood you, and push you into wrong direction.
You don't need Multitap plugin, if you not planning to use IR-remote.
You have to "dig" USB-UIRT plugin. Sorry.

Does your way of controling TV supports sending commands, like "go to the preset random channel xxx"?
If so, then Multitap is a right solution for you.

But keep in mind, what Multitap itself cannot control your TV directly. It's EventGhost plugin, which can help you to generate events you wanted ...

Here goes a short description by the author of the Multitap plugin.
If it's not sufficient, ask, and i'll try to explain more.

Stalltime wrote: They all work fine but what I cannot figure out is how to jump to a specific channel straightaway! For example entering channel 123 in event ghost would send all three IR codes sequentially and change the channel on my TV to 123.

You can easily achieve this with Multitap plugin.

second, is it compatible or have a plugin for this particular Reciever?

Thank you for your time!
I personally use that kind of receiver more, than 1,5 years. Without any problems.
But, i use WinLirc with it's sound plugin, not a rs ...

@wakko - nice script, I like it :)
Thank you :)
I'm also thought about script improvement by doing additional maths with variables. Your changes makes script really smaller and more nicer.
But i stopped myself, because in that case it's become too difficult to set up any desired increment value on ...
