hi.
not sure if this is the right palace to ask.... but here goes....
i am using vlc with directshow to stream my desktop into tv server. i have got it working in that regards and can watch my vlc stream as a channel. the next step is i want to use eventghost to change the program running on my desktop based on the channel i tune to. if i use multiple iptv cards (1 per channel) i can use eventghost to detect the stream id (card id) (cant seem to get eventghostplus to send channel id as a payload) from mediaportal and it will then close down one program and open another - so far so good!
only issue is that i have multiple clients and if the first client starts on one channel and another client starts a different channel then eventghost will override it and both a forced to watch the same channel - not an issue but if recording then it screws up as i get half a program!
i have tried changing the number of iptv to 1 (which i was hoping would limit tv server to one active iptv at a time) but after a server restart it deletes all but 1 iptv card!
am i setting it wrong somehow or is there something i can do.
help please!
