Need to create a macro to repeat another macro

[dmehling]

I am using Event Ghost to operate my AV devices with the USB-UIRT. I am wanting to create a macro that will cause an IR transmission event to be repeated several times. For example, right now if I want to turn up the volume on my TV, I have to click several times on the "volume up" macro which is very inconvenient. In this instance I would need to create a macro that will repeat the "volume up" macro several times with one click. How would I do something like this?

Possibilities how to solve, there are many.
You can use this script for example:

Code: Select all

count = 5
for n in range(count):
    eg.TriggerEvent('MyEvent')

Number of repetition is set in the first row.

Hi,

For example, right now if I want to turn up the volume on my TV, I have to click several times on the "volume up" macro which is very inconvenient. In this instance I would need to create a macro that will repeat the "volume up" macro several times with one click.

You can use the command "Autorepeat current macro".

At least in the newest version (don't know about before, I just found this awesome program!) there is a volume control built in, also with this repeat command. But you don't need it as you can select by which value the volume should change. So you don't have to do it on your own.
But I am having a similar problem. My remote (technisat with usb-receiver) cannot repeat commands, so I guess this repeat function is useless (maybe its the same for you) and I would like to repeat this command when I press the button once till I press the button again. Is this possible? I didn't find anything, also not by searching.
Thanks, Pio
