To run a .bat file using shutdown menu option help - meridius - 2012-08-16
Hi all
I was wanting to know how to run a .bat file by using the shutdown button on the main menu screen ? i have had a look at the DialogButtonMenu.xml and found this
<control type="button" id="1">
<description>Exit XBMC</description>
<label>[UPPERCASE]$LOCALIZE[13012][/UPPERCASE]</label>
<include>Objects_ContextMenuButton</include>
<onclick>XBMC.Quit()</onclick>
</control>
and changed it to this
<control type="button" id="1">
<description>Exit XBMC</description>
<label>[UPPERCASE]$LOCALIZE[13012][/UPPERCASE]</label>
<include>Objects_ContextMenuButton</include>
<onclick>XBMC.System.Exec(c:/exit.bat)</onclick>
</control>
this works for the context menu "exit" but wanted to do this on the home screen where it says shutdown is there a way to do this, i am using xbmc 10.1 and aeon nox skin
thanks

Ok thanks.
Same question then for xbmc 11 and the latest skin as I have just upgraded to that last night

search for <onclick>ActivateWindow(1123)</onclick> in includes_mainmenu.xml. that´s the line which you have to change.
