Just my one question.
1. I create a macro and I choose the xbmc event broadcast right? In the command field I type in XBMC-Event.<b>CE_Automate<li>script_start</b>, or just <b>CE_Automate<li>script_start</b>?
All of the xbmc events are showing up in the eg log, but when I start the CE script I dont see anything except "XBMC-Event.<b>OnPlayBackStarted;1</b>" when I start up CE.
Again i wont be asking a million questions about this, if I could get it to work cool if not then could always use the setup I did before but I just love the idea of maybe dimming the lights little lower everytime another trigger happens
cheers
Did you also download the home_automation.py file from the link in that message? Also did you turn on the options in Home Automation in settings?
You also need to use the 'XBMC-Event.' as part of the event.
