Media Center Script by Unimatrix Xero on 06-28-2006 at 06:29 PM

Hi everyone..

Firstly Patchu ..brilliant program! keep up the good work

Ok to the point..

Im interested in making a script that works along side Media Center 2005, basicly what i want it to do is, when Media Center is open i would like the Script to reconise where abouts in Media Center i am (eg Live TV, Watching DVD, Viewing Pictures, etc etc)
And then translate that into a notifaction on my personalised status, so my name would be 'Unimatrix Xero - {TV} then my tag line would be (co) Media Center Status: Watching <insert feature>

(co) is the computer icon in WLM at the moment

Now since im completly new to this im unsure how much power a script has or if this is actully possible at all....

If someone is willing to help me make this or to actully do this for me then i would be very greatfull indead...


thankx in advance


Unimatrix

I don't think thats possible.

The script engine can't change the Media message.

It should be possible with calling an external DLL from a script. But I have no idea how to write such a DLL :)

Most probably, noone here does:s You'd need pretty good knowledge of how media center works I think.
