<div>I set up something pretty simple on my myth box, but an actual X10 plugin would be pretty neat. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>All I did was use irexec to launch shell scripts which call 'heyu' (an X10 control command line tool) to set different lighting scenes based on what I'm doing with myth. </div>
<div>One example is, I have the power button on my remote set to toggle between two scenes: </div>
<div>ON: turns the projector on, lowers the screen, dims the lights. </div>
<div>OFF: raises the screen, brings the lights back up, and turns the projector off.<br> </div>
<div>My motorized screen is a DIY creation as well, but it's not quite done yet, so until I get more time to finish up the electronics, I've left the screen in the down position all the time.</div>
