writing a value, even if it's the same as the existing value, from a task
action into the target property of the sender device is the right way to
trigger the message send.
So you should have
1) a HB button that calls a task,
2) the task makes changes to a sender device, the last one being the
target property
3) the sender device transmits the xAP message to SqueezeCenter
Not sure I follow your description below. A screen shot of the task might
help.

Subject: [xap_automation] HouseBot Plug-in
So, I made it past the hurdle of communicating with the Squeezeboxes, now I
am stumped on the HouseBot Plug-in. Let me know if there is a better forum
for these questions.
I have created a Sender device in HouseBot that will send the button
commands to the correct squeezebox when I click on the "Click to test
and
send message". So, I try to create a "macro" using Tasks,
but no luck;
nothing is sent. In the help section of HouseBot on xAP Sender Devices it
says "Writing a value to the xAP Message Target property triggers the
xAP
message", so I use "add Action" item and chage my button
name (favorites,
play, etc) and then the name of the target. Unfortunately, the target name
is not changed between the "marco" calls and the command is not
sent. So, I
try changing the target field to "-", which creates an error
message in xFx
Viewer, but no problem. This works. Great I think, until I realize BOTH
Squeezeboxes are changing! I have the same problem with all commands, other
than power and level. Any guidance on where I'm going astray would be MOST
appreciated. Again, I am looking to simulate button pushes on the unit,
such
as next track, pause, play, and a macro (favorites, down, play).
Thanks in advance for any help you may be able to offer.
