As a novice in XBMC skinning I am struggling to work out how I could display on a label the time remaining for a particular PVR episode.

To do this I want to find the difference in minutes between the current System Time and the EndTime of the item.

So it would be ListItem.EndTime - System.Time and then display the result on a label:

For example something like below

<label>$INFO[ListItem.EndTime - System.EndTime] mins</label>

But the syntax above does not work. Can anyone point me in the right direction here?

You can't calculate in skin engine - try ListItem.Duration

Thanks for the clarification. Seems a shame there are no sort of Utility functions available for these sort of basic calculations in the skinning engine.

Maybe you can do it with a script?

Isn't there a list item remaining?

There is Player.TimeRemaining but not ListItem.TimeRemaining.
