1) How do you get it to show up on content list? When I right click on media "Queue Item" is at the top and "Now Playing..." is at the bottom, but there is no item called SimplePlaylists. I've unistalled and reinstalled SPL, but no luck.

It does not show up in the context menu. For this it had to be integrated in XBMC / Skins. You have to run the following command:

Code:

RunPlugin(plugin://script.simpleplaylists/?mode=addCurrentUrl)

You could also use Commands for that.

2) I have also added the following to favourites.xml

Code:

<favourite name="ShowPlaylists">RunPlugin(plugin://script.simpleplaylists/?mode=showPlaylists) </favourite>

3) The SimplePlaylists entry does show up on my Favorites menu, however clicking on it does nothing.

This should show your existing playlists. I have no idea why it wont show up. I need your log to know why its not working...

4) How do I map to a remote button?

5) How do I map to a key?

You will find all needed infos for keymapping here.

Thank you for your reply asde.

Code:

RunPlugin(plugin://script.simpleplaylists/?mode=addCurrentUrl)

Where do I insert or where do I run this code from?

You have to map this command to a key.
An entry for your keymap.xml could look like this:

Code:

<a>RunPlugin(plugin://script.simpleplaylists/?mode=addCurrentUrl)</a>

It's the default preinstalled repo. Go to

Code:

Settings -> Add-ons -> Get add-ons -> XBMC.org Add-ons -> Video/Music/Picture Add-ons -> SimplePlaylists

to install the addon...

It should be possible, but you'll have to customize your xbmc.
I never did this, so I dont know how to do add a global context menu item. Anyone knows if there is a simple way to do this?

No simple way. You would need to adjust the source code and compile XBMC yourself

Hi... I am quite new to xmbc, but I find it simply great and SimplePlaylists looks like the best add-on.
Unfortunately, I do not know how to start using it... I understand that I should map it to some button on remote, but I do not have remote... just keyboard.
What to do, is there some guide for us - absolute beginners?

Thanks
Martin

I have a question about Settings of SimplePlayLists.
- what does mean "Use alternative directory for playlist"?
- is it relative sub-directory to some hard-coded location or can it be anywhere, e.g. on shared drive (this did not work for me)?
- what format is used for playlists? .m3u or similar?

Why do I ask... I have simple NAS with DLNA. My idea is to create playlists (using great functionality of this plugin), save them on NAS and my home theater will access them via DLNA.

Thanks
Martin

You can find a nice introduction into keymapping (also for keyboards) here...
For example it could look like this (keyboard key "a"):

Code:

<a>RunPlugin(plugin://script.simpleplaylists/?mode=addCurrentUrl)</a>

Yes, you can change the directory for saving the playlist. It could be any directory. It should work on a shared drive too, but I did not test this... I have to look for this!
Its a custom playlist. The default location is: XBMC/userdata/addon_data/script.simpleplaylists/SimplePlaylists.spl

It should work like on any other remote: see here!
Some more atv2 infos are availabe here.
For the up button it looks like this (I have no atv2 so i cant test this):

Code:

<button id="1">RunPlugin(plugin://script.simpleplaylists/?mode=addCurrentUrl)</button>

Is there a way to add this to the music playlist menu as a button/icon

[GatoGuga]

Friends,
Great job.
I noticed that version 1.1.0 is not translated into Portuguese as remittances from Wanilton friend.
I managed to apply the command to the keyboard, perfect.
I managed to send the music to the playlist playback.

My question is, how do I access the playlist created and thus be able to play them?

Thanks for the help.


Note:
All settled.

@AddonScriptorDE, translation for portuguese (Brazil), version 1.1.0
