Hey everyone

I'm on my first Kodi service development and trying to figure out how I can catch that the user stopped or paused the playback (or when the tv show episode ended), to do some things once after every time something has been played?

This is my current structure:

python:


class Service():



    def __init__(self, *args):

        self.skipped = False    



    def ServiceEntryPoint(self):

        monitor = xbmc.Monitor()       



        while not monitor.abortRequested():        

        

            if xbmc.Player().isPlaying():

                

                #doing some things here, while playing a movie

                

            if monitor.waitForAbort(5):

                break

I know that there are callback functions like onPlayBackStopped() and so on, but I have no clue on how to implement them in a service?

Thanks in advance for your help

This might help.  It's a service addon I wrote which has what you are looking for.  Take a look and feel fee to ask questions.  There are a few ways to do this but I find a working example is a great place to start.  You are on the right track with your code.

Glad to help.  I'll be traveling this week so if you have any questions my response time may be a bit slow.


Good luck,
