I am a N00b Big Grin

I do know some LUA scriptting but i'm guessing this has nothing in common except showing i am cappable of scripting something lol.

Where do i start to look and stuff to get started making scripts for XBMC.

Hello,

A year ago I was in the same situation as you are now... Smile

I went out to get python for my win pc first... Be sure you download v.2.4, because this is used in xbmc.

Now you can make some little experiments with python syntax.
But you are only able to make command line things with that..

Google for "python tutorial" to find some easy and explained things such reading files, "Hello Worlds etc..

To make scripts for xbmc you have to go through the "API classes" xbmc.py and xbmcgui.py. These classes will give you control over xbmc functions (xbmc.py) and the interface building of your script (xbmcgui.py).

There is a whole page about building scripts in the Wiki -->

And also look in other scripts for inspiration, there are very good coders out the, meanwhile...


Hope I could help Big Grin

greets lolol
