I've followed the guidance at http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=HOW...g_services and have an issue using an autologout service started at login.
Before explaining the issue, see the script shown below for reference. addon.xml:
default.py:
I use profiles to manage who gets to watch what, and also have assigned the red button on my remote to logout by tweaking .xbmc/userdata/keymaps/remote.xml by adding the following.
Should I forget to hit the red button after viewing something I don't want the kids watching, the above script will log off automatically after 5 minutes on inactivity. Everything appears OK, however, should I remember to log off, this script, launched at logon, isn't terminated. If I log into and out of a few profiles, several copies of the script end up running at the same time, evidenced by the following appearing in the log 5 minutes later:
In the above example there were clearly three copies of the script still running.
So, my question is, how should service scripts started at login be terminated?
