I am by no means a coder, but I need to adjust this bit of code to not return all the channels, but only.

The loop below returns 72 channels (names) currently from the url but I only want to return 6, from channel 30 to channel 36. How can I edit that for loop below to make that happen?

Code:

def Channels(murls):
    setCookie()
    i=1
    link = OPENURL('URLFORWEBSITE',cookie='NAME')
    link = cleanHex(link)
    link=link.replace('\r','').replace('\n','').replace('\t','').replace(' ','').replace('  ','')  
    addLink2('[I][COLOR red]Refresh Links[/COLOR][/I]  (Click Here if Vidoes are not playing)','url',555,artpath+'empty.png',fanart)
    if '<a href="#" class="user-name">'+user+'</a>' in link:
        matchlist=re.compile('<li>([^<]+)</li><ul class="inner-ul">(.+?)</ul></a>').findall(link)
        for name,urls in matchlist:
            addPlay(name,urls,411,art+str(i)+'.png')
            i=i+1

Thanks in advance.

give this a shot:

Code:

for name,urls in matchlist:
    if i in range(30, 37):
        addPlay(name,urls,411,art+str(i)+'.png')
    i=i+1

Thanks for your help, but unfortunately adding that broke the plugin. I removed it to ensure it wasn't something else and the plugin worked again afterwards. Any other thoughts?

[ronie]

look in the kodi log why it fails with my code.

Ronie, you are a star. I looked into it a little more. I had no idea indents and their placement had an impact. Unless I did something wrong before? Do indents have an impact on python programming?

[PlexMan]

PS. It's working perfectly.

Do indents have an impact on python programming?

yup. a lot :-)

Good joke!

I also have to add that in most cases explicit counters inside loops and functions returning lists are the signs of code smell in Python.
