Got an error with latest script:
http://paste.ubuntu.com/843519/

EDIT:
Happened because I emptied my library and the playlists still exist

Didn't say i fixed it. Just gave you on how to reproduce Cool

The exception should still be caught by the script Wink

Because when you have a certain smartplaylist with some rules you can get an empty list

Sure.

Bad news, filtering on partially watched movies will be disable on the next version because of a bug in the JSONRPC API :

Version 1.0.6 released

- [Fix] Handle exception when playlist is empty or fetching information failed
- resume= parameter is disable because of a bug in method GetDirectory of JSONRPC API

For resume= option, if method GetDirectory in JSONRPC API couldn't be fixed, I can work around this problem by making a single request for each movie in the playlist/library, but script will be slower Confused

- Big_Noid - 2012-02-16 11:17

We can use the watchlist script for resumed movies. Imo it's better to have a fast script.

- mikebzh44 - 2012-02-16 11:22

Yes but watchlist script will not work on playlist. So you won't be able to display a widget showing partially watched movie in playlist Kids as example.

I can make extra request for each movie only if resume is set to True. So script will run as fast as now when resume is set to False.

Because, I don't known if JSONRPC API will be modified : http://forum.xbmc.org/showpost.php?p=1019634&postcount=1716
