Keyboard.xml direct to an addon - pbathuk - 2017-09-12
Hi,
I have my Kodi setup just how I like it, however I am missing on key element.. the ability to click a button to go directly into an add-on.. that add-on being the new Plex one.
I have key mappings for live TV etc, but can't for the life of me work out how to get it to open and run the add-on on button press.
Also is there a way to (with another button) kill the add-on? Plex likes to take over control of the play method (rewind / fast forward etc), which is fine for that media, but live TV I prefer the Kodi setup.
Please let me know if this is on a wiki or something I have missed, I checked Google but could not find anything.
Cheers
Phil

Know nothing about the plex addon (best to ask them) but typically you would bind a key to RunScript(script.plex).
As far as exiting the script, it seems like you would have to bind a SendClick to the appropriate plex skin window, control 500 (seems to be shutdown?).
At least that's how I would start experimenting.
