there is so much available, I am still finding things i did not know after years of using. And i Hope someone knows an answer to this. i need to fire a script or file every time someone changes a live tv channel. has anyone come across a way to do this? I am using windows 11. thanks Any ideas will be apreciated.

What do you mean "someone" and what do you mean by "fire a file"?  Where?  Your ask is super ambiguous with no context.

Hi, you can already setup a webhook when something is played using the notifications feature.

Thanks for the reply.

Yes, Though i need to do the work at the time of channel change, and the Live TV Webhook only deals with recordings and its very thurough. While it does hit a channel change, it is when a recording starts,  It does not deal with Live TV channel change every time a user does. The Playback Webhook has a Start,  I imagine it would fire when anything is played back ie. saved movie or TV.  I need only to fire, when channel change is selected by a user. I Like the feature for, at the end of recordings being used for Show Analizer. I searched hopeing there was another script place .

Took me over a year to find the, click on your face, when your logged in on with the web. LOL So I am hopeing there is a way you are refering to, that i do not understand the concept of yet, with the WebHooks. That would allow me to get, when a user changes, Live TV channels. I can get, when I do, i cant when some one else does yet. 

If You would please be a little more explicit. I may be able to pick up on your reference/ hint.  Thank you.

I just love all the things one can have this software can do.

There is a general playback start event you can use under webhook. it sounds like that is what you want.

Someone refers to anyone that reads that message. Thats the whole point of the message base is it not? How else should i refer to anyone, who reads that, with one word? I am realizing i need to be more careful with wording, as i realize this software is used all over the world and english is not everyones fist language. and of course my poor spelling. LOL Fire refers to trigering a file meaning scripts, executables, and or bat's to be run. As for "where" that could be anywhere, as that will be determined by the process that runs the file.  As you did not ask when, it is "When a user changes the channel on Iive TV". With the user being, someone who logs in though the intranet, being internal net. Cool? Sorry for the confusion. Thanks for asking.
