Make some tests.

First, I start script in daemon mode in Home.xml :

Code:

<onload>XBMC.RunScript(script.artistslideshow,daemon=True)</onload>

And in DialogAlbumInfo, I set up properties and call script :

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<window id="2001">
    <onload>SetProperty("CURRENTARTIST","$INFO[ListItem.Artist]")</onload>
    <onload>SetProperty("ArtistSlideshow.ExternalCall", "True")</onload>
    <onload>XBMC.RunScript(script.artistslideshow,windowid=12001&artistfield=CURRENTARTIST)</onload>
    <onunload>clearProperty("ArtistSlideshow.ExternalCall")</onunload>

I think that properties are well set up :

[code]
11:43:42 T:1600   DEBUG: CApplication::ExecuteXBMCAction : Translating SetProperty("CURRENTARTIST","$INFO[ListItem.Artist]")
11:43:42 T:1600   DEBUG: CApplication::ExecuteXBMCAction : To SetProperty("CURRENTARTIST","Adele")
11:43:42 T:1600   DEBUG: CApplication::ExecuteXBMCAction : Translating SetProperty("ArtistSlideshow.ExternalCall", "True")

11:43:42 T:1600   DEBUG: CApplication::ExecuteXBMCAction : To XBMC.RunScript(script.artistslideshow,windowid=12001&artistfield=CURRENTARTIST)

and script get it but with an error :
