Solved - Eventghost not sending commands when Kodi focused

Post by aur0n »

Hello,
sorry if it's a dumb question, but I'm new to this and I already searched for an answer, with no luck.

I am setting up some events with Eventghost to control XBMC with its plugin. I think I've set it up correctly, in fact, if I test the commands with Eventghost open, Kodi receives the commands correctly. Even if I minimize Eventghost, the commands are received and executed.

The problem starts when I focus the Kodi window: any input is not received (and the Play icon in the system tray doesn't change to red).

What am I doing wrong?

Edit: Solved launching Eventghost with Administrator privileges.

Same issue here even after running as admin. Anything else I can try?

your best bet would be to ask in the Kodi/XBMC Plugin support topic.
