[QUOTE="neme5i5, post: 75218, member: 21177"] Use Case: Erick would like mediaportal to launch an external program that excepts commands from iRtrans. Solution: I developed a plugin that will launch any program I want with any label that I want. For example, I have an BeyondTV button in the main menu (Home) that when clicked minimizes the mediaportal interface and launches BeyondTV. I use a MediaCenter remote to control BeyondTV using the app.cfg file. MediaPortal is configured as a client for irTrans. Thus it listens for events from the irTrans server. Problem: When BeyondTV is maximized and has focus, MediaPortal is still listening and responding to commands from the irTrans server. Is there any exposed API that I can call that will allow me to disable the InputDevice? And renable it once I close BeyondTV. Note: BeyondTV is strickly an arbitrary example. [/QUOTE]
