Some interesting communication possibilities can be achieved. If you come up with other ideas or create some additional applications using this you can post it on the forum below.

Using the new webserver command will allow you to send Beyond TV remote control commands to other xLobby machines on a network. The example belows provides the concept but for music playback control.

5. Web Server Command: This is a much needed command and will provide users the ability to send events from any xLobby machine to another with individual password protection. xLobby Machine 1, For example under F2, XNet, start the webserver on any machine you want to send commands to, write down the Server started ip address and port numbers. Now on another xLobby machine connected on the same network, lets say xLobby Machine 2 create a test menu and add 5 new buttons for testing labeled add 5 new events called 1. Next Track, 2. Track Previous, 3. Play Album, 4. Volume Up, 5. Volume Down . So now lets say we want to play and album and then change the track selection or volume on xLobby Machine 1.

xLobby Machine 2, under F2, Skins, create a new group label it Remote Server Command xlobby Machine 1, add 5 new events called 1. Next Track, 2. Track Previous, 3. Play Album, 4. Volume Up, 5. Volume Down . Under commands goto Web Server Command enter the IP address and port number into the first field from xLobby Machine 1, in the next field add the server password from xLobby Machine 1, now add the next field add the event group you want, example (Music) and in the next field add the Event Name you want to execute (Play Album, Next Track, Mute, etc). So lets create the event to trigger start play album on xLobby Machine 1, enter the server and password information, now in the Event Group field add Music, in the Event Name field add Play Album. Next goto your test menu and in the skin editor select the Play Album button, under the event tab of the skin editor, click event add the event for Play Album. Exit the Skin Editor and the press the Play Album button on the menu and Music should begin to play on xLobby Machine 1.

What causes hum and ground loops?
Hum and ground loops are typically generated two ways 1) differences in voltage between equipment grounding points and 2) magnetic coupling. A long cable run may suffer from both problems, video equipment is not usually connected to the same ground terminal in different parts of a building and the cable may be run next to other wires and cable.
