Good day,
I am new in this so i appologize if i don't make any sense at all...

I have an hdmi matrix switch which has a web interface for control. I can log on to it via hyperterminal and send it codes to control it. I was wondering if there is a way of getting XBMC to send commands to the matrix so hopefully i can control the matrix through xbmc

Thank you

yes. just write a .py.

thank you for pointing me the right direction. the script is in place and working. I'm now trying to figure out a way to run the script form my xbmc remote on my iphone. if i can get that to work, that would be great!

Thanks again

just use the executebuiltin httpapi command, with the runscript(path) builtin command.

Thank you. Thats what i figured reading all sorts of threads and the manual too... just trying to get my head around to how i can assign a button on the remote to trigger it, as before the script runs, i have no visual on the xbmc.

I have a feeling XBMC Remote application on iphone gets a list of possible buttons from the httpapi. i am poking around with that now, see how it goes

thank you
