    Marcus, I'd like to use EventGhost to enable and disable 3D mode for the Epson beamer since it should also handle power on and off.
    Can you tell me what RS232 command you use to switch 3D mode on and off? I've tried 3DIMENSION that's mentioned in Epson's documentation but it doesn't work however your plugin does :)

    @jamesst: I have one further question, because I'm not sure if the Intel tool lists all services: Do you have any Android or iPhone, because there is an LG remote App available for both devices. Could you test if it is possible to control the TV over Android/iPhone?[DOUBLEPOST=1370463995][/DOUBLEPOST]@vuego:

    To enable 3DSBS I send the following commands / strings:

    3DFormatSBS
    -> "3DIMENSION 03 02"
    3DDisplayOn
    -> "3DIMENSION 01 01"

    The most important thing is the newline character. I had to set "\r" as newline character to get it working, because the default "\n" didn't work!

    Just download the following file: www.venturi.de/Auto3D/UPnP.zip
    Extract it and start "Device Spy.exe" with your LG TV running. If you TV is listet, select it, open the context menu on it and select "Get Device XML".
    Upload the XML file to your post. Then I can check if your TV supports the UPnP remote service of LG.

    Hi Marcus, with the post the file you requested. I read about the other LG TV, there is an app to control it that's right.

    At the Moment I'm not sure, wether the Intel Device Spy can see the LG UDAP-Services (including the netrcu service), because LG states that it is necessary to search for "udap:rootservice" to see them. As the Intel tools are open source :) I will try to provide a modified version next week.

    In the meantime you could check, if it is possible to control your TVs via the LG remote app (if you have an ANDROID or iPhone).

    Marcus, i have installed the corresponding LG app and with this i can control the tv.
    https://itunes.apple.com/nl/app/lg-tv-remote-2011/id417713365?mt=8
    This app needs pairing with the TV, a code comes up on the screen and you have to enter the code to make the connection.

    Please see the picture on the link, if i tap the mouse pointer (right picture) the TV menu comes up and if i move the mouse cursor down to the 3D button on the screen and tap it the 3D options menu with SBS etc. comes up and is selectable by tapping again.

    Thank you, that information helps a lot. I will provide a modified "Device Spy" as soon as possible.

    beware the are two versions of 1.4 prerelease floating around[DOUBLEPOST=1370528687][/DOUBLEPOST]
    One remark: I also changed the behavior for the MCE2005Remote. The remote keys for switching channels (ChannelUp/ChannelDown) had no autorepeat. I modified this. Now it is possible to zap fast through the channels by holding down these keys.


    can we get this into main trunk ? I map channel change to page up down when not inside TV or full screen video. . this would make it so much faster to browse my gazillion movies
