RE: Adding Plex's 'On Deck' feature to XBMC - ronie - 2012-04-18 ticket created: http://trac.xbmc.org/ticket/12936 RE: Adding Plex's 'On Deck' feature to XBMC - Balinus - 2012-04-18 Hello, what's the best way to use this script? Right now, I've the execution in Home.xml, with the <onload> command. Is there a better way? Thanks a lot for any help! RE: Adding Plex's 'On Deck' feature to XBMC - Hitcher - 2012-04-18 I think most of us are using this - Code: <onload condition="IsEmpty(Window(Home).Property(Watchlist_Running))">RunScript(script.watchlist,...)</onload> RE: Adding Plex's 'On Deck' feature to XBMC - Balinus - 2012-04-18 ok, great! Thanks for the additional condition. I was using it without it. RE: Adding Plex's 'On Deck' feature to XBMC - ronie - 2012-04-18 (2012-04-18, 22:24)Balinus Wrote: ok, great! Thanks for the additional condition. I was using it without it. you should stick with what you had. the script itself will (and should!) check if it's already running. RE: Adding Plex's 'On Deck' feature to XBMC - Hitcher - 2012-04-18 It just checks to see if it's already running in which case there's no need to run it again.

Wont that be the same even without the running check though if the script checks if it's running itself? EDIT: And if it checks that it's already running how do we force an update?

All working no problem under win7, but with openelec/linux I am missing watchlist album thumbs. I know case sensitivity effects linux and I've got an unusual item list all of which needs going over but am trying to save a bit of work and was wondering if anyone else had any issues with linux and album thumbs. |
