I'm trying to detect when I should start my Movie Mode. I'd like all of these conditions to be met:
TV is on
Location == Living room
Media Player Classic or XBMC is running
I already track all the conditions individually and store them in variables but I find it hard to combine them. The possible solutions I can think of are:
Find all the places where any of the variables can change and add an event that will trigger a check whether all conditions are met.
Collect all the events that could lead to a change and let them all trigger a check.
While TV is on, run a repeating timer to periodically check the other conditions.
I don't like any of those solutions so I was wondering if anyone had a better idea? What would the least bad way be?
