Support for XBMC2 plugin (formerly XBMCRepeat)

[jesterod]

Can you explain this again? You want a macro to switch between screens within XBMC or between XBMC and another app? I'm not sure what an "ip" is.

i want to switch between computers running xbmc ip=127.0.0.1 like i hold zero for 1.5sec and it starts sending the butten press's to a different version of xbmc

[jesterod]

So you want to control two different XBMCs?
Then you need two XBMCRepeat plugins in the autostart folder, configured to use the right IP numbers.
Then you need to make a macro to enable one XBMCRepeat macro tree and disable the second XBMCRepeat macro tree, and vice versa. Using Exclusive enable a folder/macro or Enable/Disable an item.

yea that what i thought and tryed to do but i couldent get it to load 2 copys

What version of EventGhost do you have?
And when you try to add the second XBMCRepeat what happens?

At least on my EventGhost ver 0.3.7.r1462 I have two XBMCRepeat plugins one controlling XBMC on this computer and the second controlling XBMC on my XBOX.

I don't think you want to disable/enable the plugins. You want to switch between the XBMCrepeat macro trees. You should have 2 sets of those in your Context Folder (hopefully that is where you put them).

Context Folder
-XBMCRepeat
-XBMCRepeat#2

Damn, I don't like this at all, I made a bunch of screenshots showing how I control stuff and then you go and figure it out.

LOL. I figured you were making screenshots of it all, that is why I hurried up and just posted basic text

I guess the big difference between mine and your config is that I separate the control of what program is controlled to a separate folder Program Control
And have the program specific folder in a subfolder Context folder and the advantage is that the Enable exclusive action only effects that folder and I can have global macros active.

It's not THAT complicated, but as my EventGhost controls more than XBMC it needs to be a bit more complicated.
