EventGhost

I figured it out!! You have to check the box that says "use alternate method to emulate keypresses on the action part of the macro configuration. I posted over the SD forums about this also. KG, no hurry, and I know your working on a lot of other stuff I'm excited to try out. I have been really dist...

I started poking around with Windows 10, and remote navigation in order to explore how eventghost fits in. I noticed while using an Xbox One Controller as a remote control, the direction keys work natively in the WIn 10 HDHR View app. Another benefit to the XBox controller remote is there is no need...

Kevin, is PyOpenZwave something that I have to compile, or can I just install python 2.7 on a machine, and run it from the interpreter?

I'll try it out when I get a chance but I can't look at it until next week at the earliest. Thanks again for helping out.

Thanks for all of the help from everybody. I'm tied up for a week but I'll test as soon as I can

What about using a plugin for something like openhab? JR Iver also has an automation platform called injen? I don't know if there is an open API for it though.

KG, I read through many of your comments on the open Zwave GitHub repository. I have some of the tools to build this. once built and compiled, would I need any additional prerequisites other than EG and open Zwave on my machines?

I have seen threads around here before about ZWave devices but I'm not sure which applies to me. I have been very very slowly building up a small collection of Zwave devices, and now I have reached 2 devices!! I have a Aeon Labs Aeotec Gen 5 ZStick & Gen 5 Multi-sensor. This should be enough to setu...

Like MCE Remotes, USBUIRT is long abandoned by its developer. Because using this has been a topic of discussion, I'm sharing this link which talks about updated drivers, and disabling driver signing enforcement in WInodws 10. I'm still on hunt for a simple, contemporary remote control for WIndows 10...

They look like they could be opening up the mouse and keyboard apis a little for the XBox at least. https://arstechnica-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/arstechnica.com/gaming/2018/06/xbox-one-mouse-and-keyboard-support-could-be-rolling-out-soon/?amp_js_v=a2&_gsa=1&=1#amp_tf=From%20%251%24s&share...

Thanks for looking!! Yea, I was into car audio for a while up until a few years ago but then responsibilities got the better of it. I have a lot of old hobbies that have become toys in the attic. The one thing that can benefit everyone in some way or another is the theater room though. I still have ...

There are a few reasons why a store app might benefit EG and deffinately more than a few reasons why having a store app is a bad idea. I'll start with the bad. The API is limited a developers would have to focus effort on it. All around I hear the argument against store apps being the limited API bu...

If EG gets split up into a frontend backend or web client / server configuration then maybe it could get a UWP app listed in the store. It would obviously require a win 32 component to be installed but a store app might bring a chance to modernize parts of EG

One more thing. As far as a new send keystrokes goes, a lot of things are moving in terms of updating EG so after some EG "platform" updates there are likely to be quite a few new possibilities in terms of plugin development. But a lot of that is still in the works or undecided. I have a lot going o...

If you install the MCE Vista+ plugin along with the Alternate IR service, and use a Windows media center control profile with your harmony remote, EG should intercept your keystrokes, and windows SHOULD not see them. Installing the MCE Vista+ plugin will remove those two registry keys referenced ear...
