Code:

kwargs = {
  "title": "xxx",
  "date": "xxx",
  "duration": "xxx",
  "plotoutline": "xxx",
  "playcount": "xxx",
  "iconimage": "xxx"
}

Code:

liz = xbmcgui.ListItem(name, iconImage=kwargs["iconimage"])
liz.setInfo('video', kwargs)
xbmcplugin.addDirectoryItem(handle=int(sys.argv[1]), url="xxx", listitem=liz, totalItems=111)

Can't get "plotoutline" working. Every else parameter works but there is no plot text displayed anywhere. Where should it appear anyway?

Press "i". Most Skins don't display the plot in file mode.

[enyone]

Works. Stuppid skin.

That is not the fault of the skin. There is no need to display the plot in filemode.

[enyone]

Of course there is a need. At least an outline. There is also enough room.

You seem to be an expert in user interface design, if you can make those assumptions. Might I suggest that you create a skin yourself?

Use ,e.g., "xbmcplugin.setContent(int(sys.argv[1]), 'movies')" to set the content type of the listing to "movies". Then, the same views like in the movie library are available, which can also display the plot.
