Switching Presentations on event trigger.

Hello,

I have several pre made presentations, and I want to be able to use the motion sensor (GPIO trigger) to switch from one to another. ( start in a welcome presentation, but when approached, change to a presentation about the center.) I have not been able to get it to work, without creating a new presentation with BOTH presentations embedded into one, and switching on the GPIO event, and creating an media end event to switch back to the original event. Issue 2 is that I cannot figure out how to disable the trigger until after the presentation is finished, so it does not constantly sense motion and restart.

Any step by steps on how to accomplish this?

Thanks,

In order to use switch presentation, you have to add each presentation to each other. So, presentaiton 1 can only switch to 2 if 2 is added to 1.

You could listen for the motion trigger in another zone. In that other zone, you could wait for a timer or other trigger to indicate it's ok to accept the motion command.

For example the background could have an event handler as initial state with gpio events attached. Then a command from the video or content playing back can switch to a event handler that listens for gpio events.
