Toggle Minimize/Maximize within xLobby

Postby Bill Lott on Mon Dec 19, 2005 4:32 am

I have a memory leak problem that won't go away and a work-around would be to toggle xLobby from fullscreen to minimize every 15 minutes. Can this be accomplished within xLobby?

Currently, I have to manually minimize and then re-open xLobby. This frees the memory and I can keep xLobby running without it using up all the available memory on my system. I'm really hoping to use xLobby over the Holidays; but need to find a way to automate this task. Can someone please help.

Ideally, xlobby would run full screen for 15 minutes, run minimized for 15 minutes, and then run full screen again for 15.... I would like this to repeat indefinitely. Any ideas?

THANKS!

If you have a remote, you can do it by that
or since you want to use it alot during the holidays, you can make it minimize and restore before and after watching a DVD/Video File

Is there a plug-in or script that could do this within xLobby?

ok if i understand, you need :

Xscript plugin : Download

install this and after install this script to the folder "Plugin\Xscript\Script" :minimize.txt

In you skin you need a new screen menu, clone the menu screen and name the clone "menu2", assing "menu2" to startup screen fonction.

create an event plugin:XScipt , Command = ExecScript, Variables = minimize.txt

asign this event to the "menu2" screen "exit event". restart xlobby.

now when you star xlobby, the first screen is "menu2" goto to another screen and the script running. you can create if you need an "menu2" screen "enter event" with a event goto menu :wink:

the fonction off the script is :

after start wait 90000 milliseconde ( 15 min :wink: )
minimize xlobby
wait 90000 msc
maximize xlobby
reExecut the script.

my english is not perfect but i wish you understand :mrgreen:
