Full Version: Access to the Builtin TV Show Information Window

Hello,

I'm new to addon development, and I'm curious if anyone can tell me if it's possible to call the built-in "TV Show Information" pop out window function from an addon script?

Just to be clear, I'm referring to the window that scrolls out from the right side when you select "TV show information" from the context window, after you select a show from the TV Show list.

For example, I'm was hoping that it would be possible to call this function using the tvdbid number, so I wouldn't have to write the code to scrape theTVdb.com site to get all the TV show data, and create my own TV info dialog window. I've been searching for any reference to this and haven't found anything.

Thanks to all constructive feedback.
