Jump to plugin from shortcut or keyboard (1 Viewer)

[gazzas]

Hi,

Does anyone know how to create shortcuts to particular areas of MediaPortal. For instance, if I want to watch a movie, I would love to just click a button on my remote and it jump to the MovingPictures plugin even if I'm not in MediaPortal.

I'm creating a PC remote software that allows you to control the Media experience and run any macros from any browser (e.g. iPhone), remote (e.g. Harmony) or speech (using MS speech recognition). I want to be able to use this to say "Show me movies" and it jump straight into the correct plugin.

Thanks,
Gary

Bump.

Any one know how to open media portal directly to a particular plugin?

Also - if you are using the inbuilt mediaportal remote control, then you can edit the .xml file so that a button on the remote eg. "the My Videos button on the MCE remote" shortcuts straight into a plugin (eg. moving pictures or my tv series) - otherwise you can pass a keyboard shortcut to the shortcut'er plugin and that will make mediaportal jump to whatever plugin or screen you desire (using the window ID code)
