by WannaTheater on Tue Apr 28, 2009 12:46 pm So I may have found something that could be very useful to me, but can't seem to get it to work. I currently have a database that the "parameter" is set to a streaming URL. When I select that button, it opens WinAMP and passes in the URL. I am not sure how xLobby knows to open WinAMP, but I assume it has something to do with the <type>track</type> in the database.
The "F2-> File Types" has a way to run a Start Event and an End Event. So I tried this as a test: I changed the parameter field in the database to "C:\mytest.txt" I then created a new entry in File Types for my notepad++.exe editor, and pass in %parameter% as the command line switch. But when I push the button, nothing happens. I would assume XLobby would identify the .txt filetype in the parameter field, map it to the program specified in F2->File Types, then open it up. I can start this program from an OS event, and also from a command line. Anyone have any ideas?
