I've looked and looked again, and used search with every possible term i could think of, and still ended up blank...
I was thinking of writing a plugin that could report the XboX's uptime to a server to keep track of it (if it's online or not).
It would require both possibility for scheduled tasks, and a way to fetch the uptime from the xbox. As it's originally MS based, it feels like it should exist a "GetTicks()" function as it does in Windows. But is this information available thru python??
And how about these scheduled updates, how would they be done?
So it's both a feature suggestion, and a straight question.
1. Is it possible to run scheduled tasks at the XboX XBMC
2. Is it possible to fetch uptime from XboX thru XBMC so an .py script can interpret it.
I don't know if this is the right forum, but i hope so. If not i ask mods to please move my post to correct forum.
