Python MSN messenger

i agree on the sip part, i mean it is still possible to add streaming video chat to a messenger program. though the memory usage would probably cripple performance. also to the person who wanted to capture video, 20 seconds of mid quality video uses 2.6 of hard drive could you image how often you'd be crashing your xbox from low drive space? it's risky because it'll be an open source allowing incoming and outgoing connection on a full time basis while engaged in video chat. usually most programs stream content but the connection is already down while you watch until you select your next stream or the programs next action.

the idea would be to encode the video. only a schmuck captures video and stores it in its native format... cards these days even do the encoding for you, right?

just imagine : a jabber bot that answer your request for updating scripts ... lol

i think you can forget video as for now...

i'm interested in coding this kind of applicacion for xbmc. i'm not a python guru, in fact this is the first time i use it.

i've been taking a look to jabber.py (http://jabberpy.sourceforge.net), wich is a python library to access jabber servers. now i have a little program that shows any incoming message as a pop-up. no gui yet, i think that this will be the hardest part.

did you say you got problems with threading in xbmc? i had some of them too. we may work together in this project. i'm spaniard so, if you can explain your trouble better in spanish we can get over it Smile

the main trouble in this kind of project is being able to integrate gracefuly with xbmc. like having onscreen notifications like xlink kai, a fast way to access the application, etc..

msn libs are crappy

the work i started use xmpp library which is a universal im protocol. my tests were working, i mean i can send receive message (on pc not xbox yet, not perfectly in fact...) to/from msn or other im. supported im are only depending on which server you connect.

it seems that many people are working every where but nobody share....
i repeat, if you feel able to and if you have time to spend, i can share my work and source.
