Hi to all,

What happens if you execute the script from a .bat file?

Hi,
I would do it in this way:
create a cmd file e.g. c:\playmagnifica.cmd
put on it:
cmd /c start cscript c:\playmagnifica.vbs

In this way you will go back to Domoticz very quickly, otherwise could fail if more than 10 seconds.
And this should work.
lets try.

@SweetPants idem if execute VBS script from a .bat
If i launch .bat from windows work if ilaunch from Domoticz in log "Execute script.." but nothing happens.

@zak45 .cmd work on windows but in domoticz no way and in log "Error: SQLHelper: Error script not found 'C:\playmagnifica.cmd'" it seems that domoticz might not start as a .cmd script
