Installing plugins on XBMC for Windows? - yossis009 - 2009-05-05

Hi

I am new here so please forgive me if it sounds stupid.

I am trying to install 2 plugins from http://www.xbmczone.com and I have the plugins files copied as below:
C:\Program Files\XBMC\plugins\video\CBS
C:\Program Files\XBMC\plugins\video\NBC Universal

I try to follow the instruction as:
XBMC > Video > Add Source > Browse > VideoPlugins > Select video plugin from the list and press enter.

But the 2 plugins are not displayed on that list.

What am I doing wrong...? Please help !

Thanx
Joe

Try to move the files to:

C:/documents and settings/USERNAME/Application Data/XBMC/plugins/video

Note: Application Data folder could be hidden if option show hidden files is off. Regards, Peter

How to get Plugins and make them work? - klauzer - 2009-05-22

I´m new in this. I have tried to search in forum but could´t find anything.

I want to find plugins and make them work with my computer (XP).

What should I do when I find a plugin. Should I install it or just paste it into the XBMC folder?

I have not installed anything else just XBMC, should I install anything else?

Thanks

I have the same problem but I don´t have /Application Data/XBMC/plugins/video in C:/documents and settings/USERNAME

Do I have to have this C:/documents and settings/USERNAME/Application Data/XBMC/plugins/video?


Thanks

Try showing hidden files and folders

start xbmc, select the blue favorites icon next to the shutdown icon and start the svn repo installer.


- klauzer - 2009-05-22

I did that and I got an error "python script failed"

special://home/plugins/programs/svn repo installer/default.py

What should I do?


- klauzer - 2009-05-22

Thanks it worked


- klauzer - 2009-05-22

I see that two threads was added in to one. So my last post is wrong. I can´t install svn repo installer.

You don't need to install it it's already there. Just call it from the fav menu. If it doesn't work enable debug log and send us the pastebin link.

Thank´s what I´m doing. I´m calling it from fav menu. But I get a script error.

I have enabled the debug login. But where can I find this file?
