It looks like Pako may have changed the GUID in the SVN, but i have not looked in the new release build 1544 to see if its the same.

OK, that explains it, looks like Pako changed the guid in
build 1508 to not conflict with the old XBMC plugin, unfortunately I was unaware of this change and used the old guid.
I hadn't updated EventGhost since before 0.4 was released so I didn't notice the new guid and when I updated to rev 1544 my plugin used the old guid again and I didn't notice any problems.
I'll update my plugin with the new guid right away.
So some people might need to change the guid that is in EventGhosts config by editing the config.xml directly and use this guid:
Code: Select all
{8C8B850C-773F-4583-AAD9-A568262B7933}

Hello, I come from an other topic:
viewtopic.php?f=2&t=3578
Pako tells me that you can help me (yes, you Jonib!!!) :
Ask for it in topic Support for XBMC2 plugin (formerly XBMCRepeat).
It is possible that jonib to add this feature to his plugin.
What do you think about this? It's just to toggle fullscreen/minimize screen.
Can you help us?
Regards...

Sure, I'll try. Hopefully I understood what you want.
Code: Select all
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<EventGhost Version="1544">
<Action Name="Check if XBMC is minimized">
EventGhost.PythonScript(u"from win32gui import FindWindow, GetWindowPlacement\n\ntry:\n if (GetWindowPlacement(FindWindow('XBMC','XBMC'))[1] == 2):\n eg.result = True\n else:\n eg.result = False\n\nexcept:\n pass")
</Action>
</EventGhost>
Paste this code in your EventGhost config, it adds a Python script command that checks if XBMC is minimized and returns True if it is and False if not.
Then you can use the EventGhost "
If" action to jump to an appropriate macro.
This is the code if you want to create the Python script action yourself:
Code: Select all
from win32gui import FindWindow, GetWindowPlacement
try:
if (GetWindowPlacement(FindWindow('XBMC','XBMC'))[1] == 2):
eg.result = True
else:
eg.result = False
except:
pass

I knew I was not clear

you only need one of the code blocks as they are the same code, so you can remove the one you put in EGs startup.
That's all. No more problem. I don't understand how it's working but it's working!!!
Great.

XBMC Home Screen while playing

With
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<EventGhost Version="1544">
<Action>
XBMC.Home()
</Action>
</EventGhost>
I can switch to Home Menu while playing a movie. How can I get back to the movie? I can see the movie in the background but cant find a action to get back.
It should work. The official xbmc remote on android have a button that switches between home menu and movie screen.
This post was moved/merged.
xbmc2 plugin issues?
There is a Topic for that... Here.
No need for multiple Topics per plugin.
Thanks.

Controlling multiple XBMC clients?
Would it be possible for one set up commands to go to one XBMC IP address and another set to go to another?
Basically I want all the normal local ones for control on my own computer and then I want to be able to stop play on several other XBMC clients over the network.

Sure, just add one XBMC2 plugin per XBMC you want to control and change the IP address in the XBMC2 config.

Thanks for the reply.
That part makes sense but I guess I just don't fully understand it. If I create a plugin within a macro it will only be active for the length of the macro?
Sorry I am pretty new to event ghost and having a hard time finding a detailed tutorial.
Here is a picture of what I have so far.
