Pause XBMC when Shairport4w starts playing

Post by andrewch »

Hi all,

I have Shairport4w installed as my AirPlay client on my HTPC. What I would like is for XBMC to pause the current track if Shairport4w starts recieves a track of its own to play.

The way I invisage this happening is for Event Ghost to send a pause commmad via keyboard press or the XBMC plugin when it sees Shaitport4w start playing something. Is this possible? Nothing appears in the log when I start playing something through AirPlay. I did try searching the forum for "AirPlay" and "Shairport4w" but didn't find the answer.

In on Windows 7 using Event Ghost 0.4.1 r1568.

Thanks

I guess there is no plugin for shairport4w. Is there a way I can monitor traffic on a specific port to trigger an event?
