The simplest way to do it would be to restart XBMC to get a fresh log file, then run the plugin, and send me that version of the log.

Hi Benke01,
I'd say that the problem you're experiencing is something to do with XBMC as my plugin does not handle playing content directly.

I got an error 'contact the dev', while entering the movies section.
Tvshows are appearing, but those shows are not missing in my library.

Uhh, where is the page? Haha I don't see a link.
The reason I say that it doesn't work with smb shares is that Python doesn't natively support them, so I can't handle them. If you're mounting your Samba shares as network drives, then I think they should work pretty well.
That's in my experience though, using Samba shares from a Linux machine to another Linux machine. It may very well work for people using Samba between two Windows machines, which would be great news! But I don't have any Windows computers so I can't actively test it.

Thanks for that timdog! I'll look into that when I get a bit of time.
Well, there's nothing in my code that prevents Samba shares from working. I don't block them or anything, so they should be picked up like normal and at least attempt to be handled.
If you guys are prepared to help me (by doing testing, posting logs and whatnot), I can try and figure out the problem regarding it not detecting Samba shares properly for whatever reason and we could get them working.
Also, thanks for clarifying that ppic. Basically every thing I looked up regarding Python supporting Samba shares (through Google) stated that this functionality didn't exist.

Just found this plugin and it is exactly what I was looking for, except for the fact that I am running xbmc on an apple tv 2 with an SMB share =P But I will try it and post logs if it doesn't work. Thanks a lot for writing this.
