So, I am trying to figure out how I can regain functionality in XBMC that Windows Media Center provides me as well as my current comcast cable box. I want to have XBMC start live TV with the last channel that was played. I know there is a setting in XBMC's settings menu that enables this but I want to leave XBMC running at all times to have the full appliance experience. I will be using eventghost to detect my TV powering on and the computer coming out of standby mode. Eventghost will query XBMC for what channel is currently if Live TV is playing. The channel number will be written to a file for storage to safe guard against power loss and restarts. When the TV is turned on eventghost will read the value from the file and send it to XBMC to play that channel.
So can this be done with the current JSON command set? I'm new to json and I am not fully sure how to work with it so if someone can point me n the right direction it would be much appreciated.
