Serial port plugin

Post by pushpull »

I have just started playing around with EventGhost. I installed the serial port modem and set it to the com port that my modem is on. When the phone rings EventGhost detects the ring and I can get it to pause Mediamonkey. The only problem is that the next ring event will unpause MM and continue to toggle on and off with each ring. Is there a way to halt the event action after the first ring is detected?

It would be possible to use the action MediaMonkey.GetStatus and according to the results continue (or stop) the execution of macros.
However, the solution is much simpler: use MediaMonkey.DiscretePause action.

Thanks Pako. Works just fine. I misspoke though, I meant to say winamp but I really wanted this for MM anyhow. I had to update MM to get the MM plugin to work. Thanks again.
