React to Xbox 360 turning on/off?
Is there a way for EventGhost to know when a networked Xbox 360 is turned on and off? I'd like to have EG send an IR command to my TV to turn it on/off automatically with my Xbox. This way I can use a "dumb" media center remote that wouldn't normally interface with my TV to turn both on/off.

You could use the ping plugin. The thing is that you would have to have eventghost always pinging to the xbox address all the time. You would have to have the xbox as a static ip address. Now when you press the power for the xbox after a little while the you will get a response from the ping plugin as an event which can then trigger the ir send.
