guess how slow it would be to reply to a message using the virtual keyboard...

would look cool but alx5692 is right, but you never know someone might want to do it,

@alx5692
is it possible to port scripts like this onto the xbox easily ? just wanted to know as your the expert!

do usb keyboards work in xbmc?

nope

it works, i'm using one.

really?! sorry, but just before i go out and buy a usb keyboard, are you saying they definitely work with xmbc?

(if you're wondering why, it's cos i realised you could write a python script that executed input (using the 'exec' command and local namespace) and - hey presto - you'd have a test python interpreter on xbmc to try out code! )

hi.

my usb-keyboard dont work in xbmc 16-05-2004 cvs, but works in avalaunch, evox and other prog. so its no support in the xbmc what i can see (maybee it will be in the future)

so "windragz" what cvs are you using if you can get it to work??

it's a modified version of apr 28 cvs. there is an example in xdk how to add kb support to your code. i just followed that example. i just use that code (copy and paste).

the keyboard is supported by the xbox kernel as any other device, such gamepad or remote.

coo this does look interesting... not that i use msn, but it sounds useful and a definate boastworthy feature for xbmc.
if only we had a control for nokia style predictive text,typing a msg by remote would be as quick as a sms.

@windragz
have you posted your patch to the devs forum? sounds like it would be easy to add. i'd buy a keyboard if xbmc supported it

mind providing a patch for this on sf so it could be implemented?

heres a python msn library and sample client that could be used for xbmc to add msn messenger, i don't have the know how but mybe one of yous could add it to xbmc :bowdown:

tia

i crossposted to both future dev and python dev because it belongs in both, thread was already started in future, but it's a lib

:nuts:

hey !
i'm very interested !
so please, coders, come and help us !

i already tryed this lib but i'm not very good at python.

this could be very nice!
