Hello everyone,
I'm trying to edit XBMC's Audio settings through my python script instead of the skin Huh
I noticed that the changes i make in the settings take effect in the guisettings.xml in the specific lines (669 and 670) as i was trying to edit (Speaker Configuration and Audio output device) i need to be able to change them on the fly. I tried editing the guisettings.xml manually but xbmc revert back the original values on restart and using advancedsettings.xml will be static and i wouldn't be able to change it on the fly from my python script unless of-course there is a way i don't know about Smile

Any advice would be appreciated,
Thanks.
not possible atm
maybe in a couple of months if a dev finds some time to implement
Aww that's too bad, this is the one thing I'm missing after switching from xbmc on windows to linux. :[
btw you can probably script these changes with xdotool if you are on linux and eventghost on windows, I will try it with xdotool if I get time this weekend, I think it should work..
