hey,
i'm curious whether pil is included with the xbmc distribution of python and, if not, will it even work with xbmc python?
i'm trying to write a script that will get the weather radar loops from noaa and play them on the weather page, but those images are too large and i need to resize them. i've already come up with workarounds that'll let me and my close friends use the script, but i'd like to make it generally available if i can run the whole thing on the xbox.
if xbmc doesn't run pil (as i expect), any guesses how hard it would be to install it using the distutils? could i just run setup.py from within xbmc? i haven't installed modules from source before, and i don't know how possible that would be on the xbox.
thanks for your help.
