Here is a small script that creates a plugin for a local folder.

http://xbmc-scripting.googlecode.com/svn...in%20Maker

What it does is allows you to stay in library view and view local folders. Currently it only works for videos.

How it works:
1. run the script
2. browse for the local or smb folder (You may choose a multipath source)
3. name the plugin
4. goto videos library view and under videos goto video plugins. there you'll have your new plugin.
5. run the plugin and you'll get your file list.
6. the path is saved in a settings.xml file, so you may edit it after from plugin settings.

Hey Nuka, I'm trying to use this as a WOL script for my server as ozNick suggested it was compatible here:http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid...hlight=wol

When I run through and create the script for my share I get the error 'Copying plugin to new plugin folder failed!'

Is there something I am doing wrong? I am using this on my Windows XBMC and have the network share mapped in windows i.e. S:\Movies. I just grabbed the latest version off the SVN too.

The retries on the file access after WOL looks really good!

I get the same issue on the Xbox.

Sorry, totally my fault. I did not have the resources folder for some reason
