I am attempting to use "ActivateWindow" (on a keypress) and would like the window to instantly begin the file located at /mnt/usb/video1.mp4. I've tried the sub commands of files, and videofiles but cannot get it to start the video. I can get notifications to display and other functions to work. What am I missing? Looked around the forums for a bit but couldn't find any solution.
BACKGROUND
I have setup a keypad to my pi running xbmc. Upon booting, xbmc begins a slideshow of pictures from a folder. The following keys operate perfectly (keyboard.xml).
<one>PlayMedia(/mnt/usb/video1.mp4)</one>
<two>Notification(KEYPRESS, you pressed 2!, 3)</two>
<three>SlideShow(/mnt/usb/slideshow)</three>
I want to be able to start the video (which I can currently do), then have the slideshow display immediately following the short video. Thank you for any help in advance. I'm sure I will make my way around the forums over the next few days as this is all new to me.
