I suggest we start with something simple like shoutcast - Amet's script is nice and easy to follow, and by deconstructing it and building it up again step by step it would offer a nice tutorial.

We could then offer a separate tutorial for a video source.

@chippyash: Best thing to do is open a ticket on trac and attach what you've done. It might be possible to add some of it to the python wrapper in the XBMC sourcecode for instance so that the compiled docs contain more detail to get you up and running. Combined with a tutorial or two from an actual plugin being built from scratch and I think it would offer a quick start.

Cheers,
Jonathan
