"Conditional" Play Movie Event

[Bill Lott]

I just upgraded my system and am looking for a way to play movies via a 300 disk DVD changer and by using the default movie player in xLobby.

Currently when a movie is selected I have an event that plays the selected DVD via the changer by sending IR codes to the DVD changer using "%movies>slotnumber%". This work perfectly, but, I've filled up the DVD player and now want to store additional movies on the hard drive and use the computer output to play movies. I added a dual monitor graphics card and a large hard drive to the computer.

How would I create an event that could determine if the movie was a DVD or stored on the hard drive and then issue the corresponding "play" event???

Bill,

We need to add conditional logic language to xLobby to further support your issue. It is on our to-do list, I really want this soon as well. I will keep you up to date when I can. Please remind me from time to time.


Thanks,
