Any help on my slide-in animation question? I'm curious about that.

sure that should be possible, but this is what i'm trying to avoid ;-)

"write doobiest's script for him"

anyway...i guess you'll need to implement something along these lines:

Code:

firstimage = True
while(time.time() - start_time <= 14):
    urllib.urlretrieve("http://asdf.com/camera/", '/tmp/bell.jpg')
    viewer.image.setImage("")
    viewer.image.setImage("/tmp/bell.jpg")
    if firstimage:
        viewer.image.setAnimations([('conditional', 'effect=fade start=0 end=90 time=500 condition=true',)])
        firstimage = False
    else:
        viewer.image.setAnimations([('conditional', 'effect=fade start=90 end=90 time=0 condition=true',)])
    xbmc.sleep(500)
