[Ferdi-T]

Ok, worked partially: plugin now controls my lights, but also dims when I play music. I'm still tryintg to figure out how to run the script on video only, but at least it's doing something today it wasn't doing yesterday. :-)

As for distinguishing between music and video: is it right to assume that it's not possible to pass a parameter to sh? Because that was my conclusion after a couple of hours of tinkering.

So I tried making a python-script, which checks the media and then points towards the bash. Obviously it's not working, my python-knowledge is close to zero.

Code:

#!/usr/bin/env python

import sys
if  not  'music' in sys.argv[1]:
   import subprocess
   subprocess.call([./blauw.sh']
0

yields...

Code:

File "blauw2.py", line 6
    subprocess.call([./blauw.sh']
                     ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Anyone seeing what I'm messing up?
