Hi,
I was wondering if its possible to get the player to play in a resized window? Potentially looking to make an addon to have it play on half the screen and then write a gui for the other half so you can play a video and maybe practice code in the other half. Thoughts going into it are to have a text input field in which you can input code while following youtube videos and then it can create a py file with what you input then use runscript to run this code and have a way of catching/displaying it so may be back to ask for further help.
I have tried xbmc.Player().play(url, windowed=True) just to see what happened and it just played behind the menu item. I'm pretty sure the old FTV Guide used to play in a shrunken window when you pressed back on a stream and that was the only reference to anything other than normal playing that I could see.
Any help or ideas for where to head with addon would be appreciated.
Many thanks in advance
