Displaying system platform
#1
After receiving a number of support queries for my skin mod (why does menu item 'x' not work) I have decided to include a 'Support' menu item in my skin mod. Basically I'm looking to display some basic info about the users system to give me a hint on what is going on with the skin.

I have found INFO tags for XBMC build and screen resolution, but have not found anything for displaying the users platform (Windows XP, Mac OS, Linux, etc). Is there an INFO tag for this that I have missed, or will I need to write another script to give me that info?

If required a FULL debug log can now be submitted from the skin in settings->skin settings->support. Or follow instructions here if you can't access skin settings.

System info in the shipping skins (PMIII, PM3.HD, Confluence) shows platform.
Always read the XBMC online-manual, FAQ and search the forum before posting.
Do not e-mail XBMC-Team members directly asking for support. Read/follow the forum rules.
For troubleshooting and bug reporting please make sure you read this first.

just hide and show a label bases on the following booleans...

system.platform.linux
system.platform.xbox
system.platform.windows
system.platform.osx

for some reason the wiki doesnt show all the updated stuff that was there on main site before the change Confused

Thanks guys, thought it would be something like that, but as you said wiki did not show that. Will go and code this up now.
