Hi,

These are separate commands when controlling via IP.  To do what you're suggesting would require some black magic to make the command change when video playback is detected.  Certainly not impossible, but I'm concerned if I make this change lots of other users will complain as it no longer functions the same as the native XBMC iOS app.

The user/password stuff is something i'm looking into.  I've had a few requests to support different user profiles which requires this as well.

Cheers,
Matt.

First off.... thank you!!   Love all the hard work you have done and I cant wait to start using it full time.  Theres just a couple tweaks I'm looking for... hopefully I'm just overlooking something.  Heres what I'm having isssues with.


I'm working with XBMC 12.1 and I had been using ir control for complete control of xbmc.  Normal behavior for xbmc is for the left/right arrows to step video forward and backward 30 sec and up/down to do the big step.  However when using the driver...no matter which up/down/left/right commands i choose i can not get the skipping feature to function.  the normal 4 way navigation works but doesnt do anything during video playback.  Using the dedicated step forward/backward commands are fine for the ipad interface but when using a remote...having the d-pad work for skipping if very handy and would love to see this fuction to work as it does with a keyboard or mce ir remote.

I also noticed that in the setup portion of the driver... there is no way to use a non default username/password for the http interface.  Would also love to see this work as well as I use some other software that requires xbmc http interface to use a password for it to function properly.

Thanks for your time

Hi,
I am using the xbmc driver and it all works very well. I am wanting to assign a button to go straight to live tv epg on xbmc. The command is;

XBMC.ActivateWindowAndFocus(MyPVR, 35,0, 14,0)

I have a version of the driver by Matt that has an activate window command, but this requires activate and focus. What syntax is required at the start and end of the string to get this to work using the "custom string" command?

Thanks

Hi Matt,

I have a project with 4 rooms joined together. The dynalite programmer has used one area and changes the join byte to control individual or multiple rooms. The driver works great and can recall presets for a single or any combination of rooms but I was wondering if it was possible to ramp or set a level an area with a different join byte or get feedback at all?

Thanks,
Wade

I cant find this driver anywhere?  Looking for Livezi control.

Hi,

i am new to this forum, but not to RTI:-)

i had a few problems with the popcorndriver too, maybe some of you, or matt, can help:

- i have a A-400, but driver works so far...

- the connected varable is always blank, no feedback
- the return-command seems to have no function
- i can not find the zoom-command at all, am i blind?

for all of you many thanks in advance!

The driver hasn't been tested against the 400, so I can't comment.
If you send me some debug logs I will be able to tell if it's compatible.

Hi Matt

Does this work with XBMC Gotham release as I had a quick try and no luck and have used the driver before so just wanted to confirm as it does say Frodo ?

The Frodo version works with both Frodo and Gotham.

The Eden version will only work with Eden.

Replied by email a while ago. Posting here just to confirm that yes, activate windows works as expected. Very helpful. Thank you
