add link to plugin on home menu

Posted by jack under enart.hubeidaxue.com

  • Is there a way to jump directly to a plugin from the main menu?
    I've tried setting it up similar to how you run a python script from the main menu, but nothing would happen.
    XBMC.RunScript(Q:pluginsprogramsLauncherdefaul t.py)


  • Settings->System->Enable debug logging.

    Ideally a reboot after that so I can see version info etc. in the log.

    Cheers,
    JonathanCrap, okay. I set the logging to 3 in avanced settings hoping that was it. I posted the bug already. I'll do that now and edit the bug report.


  • Hmmm...I see no such option in Settings->System


  • Note that while the crash is fixed, I have no idea whether the plugin URL I gave you suffices or not. It must be close, however, otherwise it wouldn't have crashed :p

    Cheers,
    JonathanWOOOHOOO. I compiled my own build today and it worked. I used the URL just as you suggested, BAM like magic! You come thru once again. Thanks!


  • Well, nothing should cause a crash, ever. Please post a bug report on trac including the changed skin files, the plugin you used (a link to it is fine). Feel free to assign it to me.

    Thanks,
    Jonathan


  • I had to remove1from my advancedsettings.xml file for debug logging to show up in the GUI.


  • Ah - yeah, it will be removed if advancedsettings.xml has it (just like any other gui setting).

    Note that while the crash is fixed, I have no idea whether the plugin URL I gave you suffices or not. It must be close, however, otherwise it wouldn't have crashed :p

  • I did a clean install, now I see the option.


  • plugin != script.

    To run a plugin, using ActivateWindow(Programs,plugin://programs/Launcher) may do the trick.


  • What's weird is on my other PC, I have that advancedsettings and it still shows up.

    If not you, who would know the proper path? I tried changing that path to all kinds of variations, none worked. They all just took main programs screen.


  • Don't bother - found the reason.

    The crash should be fixed at least. Not sure whether it'll run or not.

    Cheers,
    Jonathan


  • Please use PM3 so that we can eliminate the skin variable from the equation.

    Settings->System has "Enable debug logging" as the very first option.


  • Settings->System->Enable debug logging.

    Ideally a reboot after that so I can see version info etc. in the log.

  • XBMC.ActivateWindow(Programs,plugin://programs/Launcher)Crashed the win32 build. I'll test the xbox build later.


  • Thanks. I was going to try it with PM3 today. It was just too late last night to do anymore.

    I did switch to PM3 to set the debug setting, but I still did not see it. I see it on my other PC with XBMC. I even copied over the PM3 skin from the one I do see it on, thinking my PM3 skin was corrupt.

    Just curious, what was the fix?


  • I assume that first bit means a plugin does not equal a script. They all have a default.py, so that's the best assumption I could come up with for launching them.

    I'll try your example thanks.


  • Well, nothing should cause a crash, ever. Please post a bug report on trac including the changed skin files, the plugin you used (a link to it is fine). Feel free to assign it to me.

    Thanks,
    JonathanOkay will do. I'm looking into how to run the win32 version in debug mode. When I figure that out I'll post it.
