Some upcoming features in the works...
Context menu forwarding (which will require either you manual edit plugins or you beg addon developers to implement the code ).
I'm working on two types:
Type 1: Plugin Directories...
From within a video plugin you can bring up a context menu and add that plugin directory as a PseudoTV Live Channel.
Type 2: Super Favorites...
Using the Super Favorites plugin you can create custom PseudoTV Live channels, each folder would represent a channel. The contents of each channel will be made up of random links you placed inside it.
With regards the context menu forwarding, rather that getting all the addon devs to change their addons, it would be a lot easier to use the approach I do in Super Favourites and just override/hijack the XBMC context menu itself and add the functionality yourself by querying the currently selected list item (see capture.py in my addon).
Yeah I had a lengthy discussion with XBMC mods about this exact thing... I hope to add this plugin into the official repo when it's finished... So any mods like that wouldn't be allowed, along with my EPG Videowindow hack.
If all else fails I'll take a look at your hijacking method... thanks for the info.
Which mods aren't allowed? The context menu stuff really just installs a keymap file which then call calls a custom script when the menu button/key is clicked.
This script then brings up a menu with my options in it (and also allow the user to then choose the standard menu), the standard menu can also be restored via the addon settings.
What is your VideoWwindow hack?
I've also made the change you required in Super Favourites (see other thread), can you let me know if they do what you need?
