Or....

did you want to somehow share something with a user so that they access the plugin and see the list of 2700 videos for them to view, without having them to provide a google account or perform any other action other than have the plugin installed?

You can also PM me the details and I'll work out what you are looking for in the plugin.

Thanks a million for your prompt reply. It is indeed the second option.

I see that the login credentials are needed to get the drive feed info for that account, which includes file links and titles etc,. but I would think it is possible to store such data in a local file, or download it from an accessible url. Accordingly, we can present the same file structure to other users.

What I do with my local area network (for the various Raspberry Pi XBMCs) that share data is that I use a special version that reads a spreadsheet stored in a Google Drive account. The spreadsheet is a index/list of files. Right now it is a list of titles that resolve to a URL as each user is logged into the same Google Drive account.

Sounds like what would work in your situation is a spreadsheet stored publicly on the Google Drive account, that lists out the public URLs for the media for playback. Columns for title, folder, perhaps something for details, and then Google Drive URL to video.

The user would load your URL containing the spreadsheet and instantly be able to navigate all the content shared.

Is this along the lines of what you had in mind?

Yes, that would be wonderful. I can do that spreadsheet as I have all the urls for my 2700 videos
