Need help with almost finished WOL service addon - stoffmann - 2011-10-16
Hello,
i'm currently developing a wol service addon for xbmc. Unfortunately my python experience is very bad.
The service works when i hardcode the mac address in my script, but i wan't it to be configurable from the GUI. The GUI itself works too, but i don't know how to pass the parameter entered in the GUI into the WOL command.
The command working is:
Code:
xbmc.executebuiltin('WakeOnLan(40:61:86:02:ff:b4)')I tried the following:
Code:
xbmc.executebuiltin('WakeOnLan(' + str(Addon.getSetting("mac")) + ')')I can output the MAC into the logfile with this line:
Code:
xbmc.log("Send WOL package to " + str(Addon.getSetting("mac")))Can someone please help me with this?

Thanks for this. I will try it when I'm back home.
