I made the DemoScenes add-on for playing scene clips from movies, for demo and testing.
You add scenes from playing movies by pressing a key ("d"), the scene is then added to a list, with thumb and art made from screenshot of the scene playing.
The scenes can then be played later, from a list invoked from the DemoScenes add-on.
In a demo situation this is excellent - all scenes arranged readily available, starting at the right offset, no need to fiddle with bookmarks or searching for the right movie.
I post it here in case others find it useful.
Feel free to modify it as you find suitable, there may be bugs I did not find and a few "issues" I did not fix.
I searched for similar solutions, but found nothing, and there were at least one other request for something like this.
It also works fine for music, though you get no thumb or art.
They keymap must be added manually to the keymaps.xml file in your userdata folder:
<keymap>
<global>
<keyboard>
<d>RunScript("/home/xbmc/.xbmc/addons/plugin.video.demoscenes/demoscenes_add.py")</d>
</keyboard>
</global>
</keymap>
