Hey guys,

I want to make an add-on for XBMC by Python script. I have read the tutorial on the wiki. I'd like to ask if it is possible that I can make a GUI window in XBMC which 25% of this GUI screen will have the video screen - I mean 25% of the GUI will playing the video and the rest of the GUI window is to do other things (like a function button or something).
Is it possible to do it with python script add-on? Or do I have to do it through a patch?

Many thanks in advanced.

yes, it's totally possible. just add a videocontrol control to your addon's skin and off you go.

Thanks for the fast reply
I just found some example add-on to practice.
I'd like to consult you guys if I have further question. Thanks.

Hi,

Can you show me in which way I can get the local videos playlist in XBMC?
I mean if I have some videos file in the video source, I want to get this list so I can play it in my add-on.

Thanks.

Hi,

I have already succeeded with the window screen playback.
I used this in my xml skin

Code:

<control type="videowindow" id="2">
      <description>My first video control</description>
      <posx>80</posx>
      <posy>60</posy>
      <width>250</width>
      <height>200</height>
      <visible>true</visible>
</control>

What next I want to do is that I want to click on the window and switch it to full screen, the normal playback, can you show me how I can do that?

Thank you
