Start Program if not found woes

[javamarket]

I must admit I'm at a loss. I've scoured the forums and spent a few days so I'm looking for a little help.
The background is I use EG to launch XBMC. Because of a USB-UIRT problem, I need to kill and restart EG when resume from PC standby.

The startup I have for the XBMC macro is as follows:

Start.Program.XBMC <Event>
Ping: Remote Host: 192.168.1.10 <action> (can ignore this)
Find Window: XMBC <action> (Search invisible, Stop macro if target is found, Program: XBMC.exe)
Start Program: XBMC.exe <action>

So it should look for a running XBMC.exe program / process and if found end the macro. In testing it within EG it works fine.

Now I kill and restart EG from a batch file, and when it runs it always closes and restart XBMC.exe. The batch file makes no reference to XBMC, but if anyone would like to test here is the batch file:

Batch File:

Code: Select all

@echo off
tasklist /nh /fi "imagename eq EventGhost.exe" | find /i "EventGhost.exe" >nul && (
taskkill /F /T /IM EventGhost.exe >nul
 ) || (
rem EventGhost isn't running
)
start "" "C:\Program Files (x86)\EventGhost\EventGhost.exe" -h

what's the end goal i don't get it
- restart eventghost with a .bat script for System.Resume
- start xbmc

?

The end goal is to diagnose why the Macro, although logically outlined fails to operate correctly.

When you use find window right after use bring to front action or expect strange things to happen
Also, ensure these values are correct (in configure item for find window xbmc)
program: XBMC.exe
window name: XBMC
window class: XBMC
only return: 1 'th match
