Hi all,

Is there anyway to Start Plex and then close/quit Plex from Roomie?

The Shutdown command seems to crash it and then close windows. I don't see any other commands that could work.

If you're on OS X then Roomie Agent can handle launching and quitting apps for you.

Thank you.

And if you are in windows? I'll be able to get it started assuming (I don't have the infrared pack yet) you have mce keyboard as a device that can be added.

But not sure how to close it. I guess I have to find out if there is a keyboard key that will close Plex, then I can map to that using mce keyboard device.
