Fw: XBox Media Centre - in Node0?

[Gareth Cook <g@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I have one of my XBoxes in Node 0  -  the power switch on the front is
parallel wired into a volt free relay (in this case Comfort's Relay board
- but could be on one of the CBUS channels). It "holds" it closed
for 0.5
seconds (needs longer to turn off sometimes).

Then either a CBUS switch (in my case, a button on the DLT in the lounge)
or a Comfort trigger can turn it on/off.

[ukha_d] XBox Media Centre - in Node0?

Category:



Don?t know if anyone does this:

I want to put the old Xbox in Node0 purely to use XBMC and feed the output
into my video switcher. That bit isn?t a problem but I want to also
achieve:

1.               Remote turn on/off of the Xbox  - (WoL for turn on would
be good)
2.               Remote control of the menus ? cursor keys and select etc

Is this possible? Anyone done it?

Thanks,

Paul.
