Thanks for the clarification. My OP correctly referred to a .wsf file but my aging brain subsequently converted it to .swf
Since my last post I had already discovered that a .bat file was an alternative to a .wsf, though batch files have the disadvantage of causing a short flash on the screen. However, I've never used Curl before, so thanks for that info.
I still have an issue with the MCC 10037 command, as it appears to be behaving in a rather erratic manner.
Using the command prompt, I can turn detached display on for the current zone with MC32 /MCC 10037,1 and turn it off with MC32 /MCC 10037,0. So far, so good, but when I specify the ZoneID the situation becomes more complicated.
MC32 /MCC 10037,1:0 correctly detaches the display for Zone 0, but MC32 /MCC 10037,1:10038 also detaches the display for Zone 0 (but not Zone 10038). The same applies when I use other ZoneIDs in the command. They all detach the display for Zone 0. What might explain such behaviour?

Is this a HPBEME request that you want reversed?

Rather non-intuitively, the successive zone IDs stepping down my zone list (as displayed in MC) are 10038, 0, 10036, 10035, 10018, etc. What is the logic behind the ordering of the zone list in MC?Internal IDs are... internal. No logic is required Maybe you should use the Index or Name instead. Quote How would I incorporate that in the SWF script mentioned earlier?Use Curl to do the HTTP calls. Quote On a wider issue, that script was published in this forum long before the Adobe Flash SWF format became defunct. Is there another way to automate MC startup?It's not SWF, it's WSF (Windows Script File). It's not related to Flash. If you just need a script to run as a shortcut or as a scheduled task on windows startup/logon, you do not need a WSF file. You can use a simple .bat or .cmd file with the same commands, something like this: Code: [Select] @echo off |

You can list the zones and their index/internal IDs via MCWS: Thanks for that very useful zone information Rather non-intuitively, the successive zone IDs stepping down my zone list (as displayed in MC) are 10038, 0, 10036, 10035, 10018, etc. What is the logic behind the ordering of the zone list in MC? Quote There's also the /Playback/SetZone MCWS command to switch zones. That one can switch by zone index, zone ID, or zone Name. The SetZone example provided via your link let me switch to my 1st zone by using the following browser entry. http://localhost:52199/MCWS/v1/Playback/SetZone?Zone=10038ZoneType=ID How would I incorporate that in the SWF script mentioned earlier?

I seem to have it working now.
I was very confused about zone numbering. I've no idea what controls the order of the zones in my MC installation, but it's certainly not in alphabetical order. I was originally following the guidance provided by Glynor (the author of the wsf script) in the thread I linked in my OP, which stated "1:0 corresponds to the first zone, 1:1 to the second, 1:2 to the third and so on and so forth". That does not appear to be correct in my case. A process of trial and error (greatly assisted by the Overview that appears at the top of the Playing Now section in the MC interface and indicates which zones have a detached display) proved that Zone 0 was my 2nd zone, Zone 2 was my 5th zone, and Zone 3 was my 4th zone. I don't know the meaning of Zone 1, as it simply generated a black rectangle and didn't trigger any detached display indicator in Playing Now: Overview. I tried to add another command to set Zone 0 as the current zone but mc32.exe /MCC 10011,0 doesn't work. Have I got the syntax wrong for that command? |

MC has hung both when trying to playback a video from active audio playback and after a file has finished playing (playback stops with the track title and status "waiting" shown in the player bar with the waveform still visible). I can see in the log that it started setting up playback for the video file but then froze. I'm not quite clear why yet. Going to add a bit more logging to see if we can pin-point where it happens exactly. Unfortunately hangs are very opaque to us as there is no indication where exactly it stopped. |

This has been happening to me recently. Hangs on a black screen when I stop a movie... has to be task killed. Local files.Are you watching via browser (Netflix or Amazon)? Try escape or F11. Could be a focus problem. Click on the screen first with your mouse. Alt tab Alt-F4 will kill a browser window without killing MC. |

I purchased the MS-01 with base Intel i5-12600H processor. While the benchmark score was not quite up to the UM790, it was still quite respectable. I posted the results in the benchmark thread here: https://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php/topic,54396.400.html.
It allowed me to get rid of my noisy HTPC at the expense of a few internal LEDs that I can't cover with black tape. I particularly liked the cost (less than $600) even when I added my own RAM and SSD. Bypassing a gaming GPU provides quite a cost reduction. |
