Hi all,

I want to do the following:

<four>Stop,XBMC.ActivateWindow(Home)</four> (this doesn't work)

Essentially I want the 4 button to go to Home, stopping any music or movie that may be playing.

Can this be done?

Cheers

Pete

yes. just script it and map the button to a runscript()

Thanks Spiff, you're being tons of help with this project....

So I'm guessing the script needs the following lines:

Code:

xbmc.PlayerControl(Stop)
xbmc.activatewindow(home)

But I have no idea how to write the script... can you tell me how or point me to a good resource that assumes I know absolutely noting about writing code or scripts?

Thanks..

Pete

uhm, wiki and google.

but in any case, see autoexec.py which sits in the scripts dir in svn. you want

Code:

import xbmc

xbmc.executebuiltin('playercontrol(stop)')
xbmc.executebuiltin('activatewindow(home)')
