Help with mce standby tool or Evenghost to close XBMC on Hibernate - tebicenter - 2008-10-30

Hi

I'm trying to configure MCE Standby Tool or EventGhost to close XBMC before hibernate and open it after resume, but I can't figure out how to do this on both programs...

Can anyone tell me how to do this on any of this two programs ??

Thanks in advance

I am not in front of my htpc so it's not exact but in eventghost, there should be a log of commands. system.standby is one of them and I dragged it over to the xmbc plugin command for xbmc.shutdown. So when eventghost sees a system.standby, it'll issue a xbmc.shutdown.
I use a MCE remote, so there is also a MCE.shutdown command in there somewhere.

Conversely, there is a system.resume that I added to a launch app command and relauch xbmc when the system wakes.

well, I downloaded the XBMC plugin, but I can't add it. When I want to add the plugin, the OK button is disabled.

Any ideas?

PS: thanks for the fast reply
