Keystrokes emulation does not work for me...

Post by fidoboy »

Destination program doesn't get notified when i emulate keypress from EventGhost. I'm trying with MediaPortal, when i press a given key in my keyboard, EventGhost must send a single letter k to MP, but it doesn't work... if i manually press that key it works... but EG is not sending the key to MP...

May be that the reason were that i have a findwindow action before. I need to make sure that MP is running before sending the key. i search for the window with Program name only, checked, and stop macro if window is not found. Any ideas?

I'm controlling MediaPortal using EventGhost this way. Find Window: Program name only.

What OS are you running?
