create /etc/init/xbmc-events.conf

Code:

start on screensaver or player or library
task

env UPSTART_EVENTS

script

         screensaver)
                 ;;
         player)
                 if [ $ACTION = START ]; then
                     echo "Video Playing, dimming ligths!"
                      kaku 123 1 dim 4
                 else
                      echo "Video Stopped, brighting ligths!"
                      kaku 123 1 dim 8;
                 fi
                 ;;
         library)
                 ;;
         *)
               ;;
     esac

end script

okay, how to start it? sudo ./ says commands not found
when i took a look at the event file i saw you could specify the type playing (tv show movie audio)
then i can set that playing movie won't kill the lights, and if i want to set another value like pause , would it be

if [ $ACTION = START ]; then
echo "Video Playing, dimming ligths!"
kaku 123 1 dim 4
elseif [$ACTION = PAUSE]; then
echo "video paused, brighting lights!"
kaku 123 1 dim 7
else
echo "Video Stopped, brighting ligths!"
kaku 123 1 dim 8;
fi


i know that in this case it doesn't matter much but its more for understanding what i write...

Thanks a lot
