yes you can!

insert this line for get the string for device A8:

dim variable=hs.DeviceString("A8")

then modify the hs.geturl line with the following:

hs.GetURL(Path,Path1 & variable & path2,False,80)

(A homeseer value can be sent with hs.devicevalue)

I was looking in using Jointspace for Philips TVs, this can also accomplised by jstX as described here domoticaforum.eu/viewtopic.php?f=38&amp ... amp;t=5219 however i would like to have an interface that can run on a Windows OS guest instead of linux.
