EventGhost Macro to close XBMC

Post by ijourneaux »

I created a simple macro to close xbmc.exe using the close command. When it executes, rather than closing xbmc, xbmc gets minimized to the taskbar. At that point, it is in a hosed state and I have to kill it with task manager.

Shouldn't this work? Is there another way to accomplish the same thing?

Sorry about that. Forgot that I had already asked the question.

I did find a solution. Installing a new version of XBMC seems to have resolved my issue and close now closes the application. This was such a simple macro is was hard to understand why it wasn't working.

No off to try and get my X10 Usb adapator to work.

Take Care.
