Questions on xbmcplugin - kruuth - 2011-08-31

I'd like to generate a popup when someone starts my plugin that warns when certain settings aren't configured. Can that be done?

Also, is there a way with addDirectoryItem to call an executable with a bunch of switches. Is that possible?

You can alway open the setting screen....

xbmcaddon.Addon( "addon name" ).openSettings()

What about the other part?

Yep, that worked, however, I have made a list with xbcplugin, but I need another program to execute each of the things on the list. Is that possible?
