Hi
Just after some info, or help in the right direction. I have a home automation style webUI at home that controls a few things aroung the house, and I wanted to add some basic functions to it for XBMC. I have tested a few things using JSON-RPC, Directions etc, but the main function I want is a hard reset for XBMC, Linux and the lot, as I do have frequent issues with freezing and what not that the soft reset cannot fix. Currently I use an SSH App on my phone to reboot, but that is not very "Wife Friendly".
What I have been playing with is just the strings, straight into the address bar, so this is what I am trying at the moment:
The issue is, it just freezes, doesnt matter where it is, during playback, or on the home screen, the player just freezes. And I have left it a while, but it doesd not reboot. I still have SSH access at this point and can reboot, no issues. I just would like to know if there is a reason this does not seem to work, and if there is anywhere I could find a log of what is going wrong.
I am using Frodo, 12.2, and I think Linux 11.10 (I have attempted to upgrade to 12.04 but for what ever reason it does nothing, I will be upgrading this as soon as I get a bigger SSD).
Thank you
