[QUOTE="and-81, post: 171008, member: 11844"] Unfortunately the Event mapper requires some dark magic to get it working. You really need to be able to look through MediaPortal's source code and find the parameters and events that you need. Basically, if MediaPortal sends an event for something Event Mapper should let you act on that event. It means that if you have some thing that you want to do and you know MediaPortal is internally sending an event that you want to look out for then Event Mapper should let you do that. This is all very abstract, but that's what Event Mapper is, it's abstract. It's not there for any one reason, it's there to do whatever people figure out they can do with it. I don't even know what it's capable of. I might be able to put together some "serving suggestions", a simple guide to some popular uses of Event Mapper... once I get some of the other things I'm working on sorted out. And I am in the middle of putting in Time-Based schedules. Things like, Every 10 minutes do this ... Every Monday, do this ... That sort of thing. That's still probably a little way off, but I'll let everyone know when it's in. So much to do ... :) Cheers, [/QUOTE]
