Hope this helps.

This is how I added the XBMC Notify to asterisk / Trixbox. For this to work my inbound calls go to a call group that rings all of my phones and the xbmc-notify app. I downloaded the phone icon from http://blakekrone.com/2009/03/31/boxee-a...ler-id-fun


Step 1.) Turn on http services on XBMC

Step 2.) add the following to the end of /etc/asterisk/extensions_custom.conf note the exten => .... line must be on one line. Replace the ip and port with the ip and port of your mediacenter / xbox.

;-----------------Add to /etc/asterisk/extensions_custom.conf ------------------
[xbmc-notify]
exten => s,1,System(wget "http://192.168.1.106:8080/xbmcCmds/xbmcHttp?command=ExecBuiltIn&parameter=XBMC.Notification(${CALLERID(name)}\,${CALLERID(number)}\,300\,pho​ne.png)")
;-------------------End of xbmc-notify-------------------------------------------------------

Step 3.) Useing the trixbox web ui navigate to PBX Settings then Module Admin.
Now Click check for updates then install the Misc Application Module if you dont have it installed allready.

Step 4.) Go to tools, Custom Destinations to create a new destination that points to the xbmc-notify section in extensions_custom.conf.
For the custom Destination enter xbmc-notify,s,1 then enter a nice description and submit.

Step 5.) Go to setup, Misc Applications to create a new application that points to the destination created in the previous step. enter a feature code that is not in use and not an extention for example 123 for my system then select a destination of custom destination (the one we just created)

Step 6.) Add 123# (or the extension you chose to use followed by # ) to the extensions in your call group.

Step 7.) You many need to reload the dialplan via CLI or a reboot then sit back and enjoy.
