Format aspect ratio

[xlobbyer]

I see there is a "formataspectratio" field in the movie database.
How can I have Xlobby look in that field and send a command I select.
Similar to how it looks in the "collectionnumber" field and sends a command for that.
I want to do that so if the aspect is 2.40 or 2.35 or 1.85 or whatever,I can send a command to my TV to change its aspect ratio.

Not sure about your specific field, as i have only done this with fields visible from F2/databases.

The way to do this is to do a Girder/send event string:

LGTV.Ratio.%movies>formataspectratio%

Where LGTV.Ratio. is any text you like.

This field is visible in the F2 database.
Specifically i'd like xlobby to read the field, determine the number,2.35,1.85 etc and then know to send the 2.35,1.85 code to girder(which I already have set up to respond to) I just need a way for xlobby to send it to girder.
So if the movie is 2.35 aspect,Xlobby will read it and know to send the 2.35 aspect event to girder and not the 1.85.
BTW im using girder because im sending a serial port command to my TV.
Thanks for your help with that.
