    send text from HSTouch

    Hi,

    How can I send a text string to Kodi from HSTouch. I see the command to send the text, but to enter in the text I can't find. If I keep pressing the Send Text button. a blank text to sent to Kodi. I see in HS3 the box to type the text in and the submit button (that all work great). How do I enter the text from HSTouch into the Send Text box in HS3?

      Well, I'm not sure if it is possible or not, I'm not a HSTouch guru... maybe you should ask in the HSTouch forum.

        Hi Spud,

        I had this working perfectly before as per this forum.

        https://board.homeseer.com/showthrea...light=huntley1

        Since I've update the plug-in to 3.0.1.1 it hasn't worked for me. Even when I type in text directly from HS3 (the first attachment I sent in this thread). After I type me text in the text box and press Submit. Kodi acting as if a blank text was sent. From HSTouch nothing happens. its as if the InputSendText command is not executing.

          I jusr tested the "SendText" text box and it worked for me.

          From HSTouch you need to update your script has the plugin has been renamed

          Code:
          Sub Main(ByVal parm as object)
             
          hs.writelog("XBMC-HSTouch", parm(0))
          
          hs.PluginFunction("[COLOR="Red"]Kodi[/COLOR]", "", "InputSendText", new String() {"Kodi (localhost)", parm(0)})
          
          End Sub
          If it still doesn't work, set the log level to Debug, and check what is sent to Kodi.

            But nothing appears on the screen, Kodi Kryten 17?

              What are you trying to do?
              InputSendText is used to fill a textbox when Kodi prompt for something. If you send text notifications, sue GUIShowNotification
