Have managed to get some "Hello World" to appear on my own script for XBMC.
However, that's it. Once I draw the items on the display in the __init__routine, my script just waits. I tried putting a loop into the __init__ routine (with a sleep routine to maintain 10fps), but XBMC just kills my script in short order, and I don't see any updating happening.
So, basically, I need to call my updater function every, say, 0.1 seconds, to update the display surface. How do I do this?
I've looked in a lot of docs, can't find anything apart from xbmc.sleep, which makes the program lock up, as above.
