[QUOTE="valdi, post: 884132, member: 116882"] GJC, A couple questions and issues for you, 1) Couch Potatoes are rejoicing everywhere...You have solved the issue of AirplaneInteruptus in my house. Now that I can pinpoint the antenna from within MediaPortal, the airplanes in the landing pattern passing above my house do not effect reception on any of my channels. As well, I can now access 4 more channels because of the pinpoint accuracy this plug-in enables without my getting up to manually move antenna. 2) When loading EventGhostAntennaRotatorEventGhostConfig.xml for the first time a Win7 Firewall Dialog presents itself asking for permission to exclude. I OK'd the exception and no errors presented themselves. 3) I don't use a HID device so I deleted that plugin from your .XML config file. Is that OK? 4) The attached is my AntennaRotatorEventGhostConfig log showing some errors whenever the Antenna event is fired. EventGhost is posting errors after every Antenna turn. Everything still works as it should, but up comes the script errors. 5) My MediaPortal is working on a triple monitor set-up. 2 LCD's in the office and 1 LCD in the Bedroom. When an Antenna change is requested and the Dialog Box presents itself, I would want the message to be displayed on the Monitor that MediaPortal is being displayed on. Instead, Monitor #1 is showing the Dialog Box and it is not showing on the monitor that I have MediaPortal being currently displayed on. Could you figure out a way to get the dialog over to my other monitor to which MediaPortal is being viewed? 6) To the above question, would it be possible to use the EventGhost built-in message dialog to let the user know Antenna is being moved? 7) During Set-up within Antenna Rotator Plug Configuration Screen within TV Server Configuration, I have set all my presets to zero and have not input the secondary Azimuth Degrees for each station. Meaning, if ABC gets good reception at 170 degrees and it also get good reception at 000 degrees, I have not entered ABC twice. Long-term will this be an issue when several Clients are requesting Antenna access? To clarify the question, all my channels are located within a 60 degree arc. I don't believe the Antenna will ever be out of that 60 degree range. 8) The last issue I have is that this plug-in will not do my Laundry or Vacuum my Stairs. Please rectify. Excellent Work!
