turns out some recent change in xbmc broke the script.

i'll look into it.

Thanks.

ronie,

Could I jump in here with a request please. Have just made a push to my skins svn with built in support of this script, but was wondering why you have set all the video type files to default to DefaultVideo.png for the fallback icons. Could we have the icons set to DefaultMovie for movies and DefaultTVShows for TV shows? Or even better if it is possible to allow the skin to over ride your defaults if I set a fallback to something else?

BTW, love the script, really nice job on this one mate.

Wyrm (xTV-SAF)

@wyrm

:-)) Mate, you surely are on fire :-) You made some major steps with xTV recently. Kudos.

it allows you to find items in your video/music library right from the home screen
Should this global search function not be a feature in XBMC's core so it will be used by all skinners?

Why is a python script needed for it?


- spiff - 2011-09-09

because the guy that took his time to create it for you writes in python, not c++.

patches welcome.

In the meantime, any skinner could use a script, it's available in the repo.

Would be choice expanding this to provide plugins for searches of common online content e.g YouTube, icefilms, etc. Configurable, combined search result. We live in the era of unified searches via the internet, smarttv's do it, let us do it!

Hi Ronie, first thanks for the script. Unfortunately i'm not able to use the search, the script return to me "search failed"; in the log i see
12:51:36 T:2052 INFO: Loading skin includes from D:\XBMC_TEST_12\portable_data\addons\script.globalsearch\resources\skins\Default\720p\includes.xml
12:51:36 T:2052 INFO: Error loading includes.xml file (D:\XBMC_TEST_12\portable_data\addons\script.globalsearch\resources\skins\Default\720p\includes.xml): Failed to open file (row=0, col=0)

But includes.xml doesn't exist in the folder.

If needed, here the full log: http://pastebin.com/Qk0qRraR

it's likely the same issue as was reported here:

i'll release a new version of the script asap.

No hurry for this, seems lasts nightly builds have changed several things.
If you need an italian string for this, i'm happy to contribute.
Thanx for your disponibility.

new version is now available in the addon repo.

it fixes all recent issues due to json-rpc changes in xbmc.


please note:
in order to use it, you'll be needing the next xbmc nightly build.
