if a show is available in the next aired list, it's a continuing series.
I thought about asking ppic, the ended field isnt is the script i believe, but what limit do we put on how many shows to store 50, 100, 200? As some people have BIG libraries. Plus we have do to stringcompares so thats alot of code for 100 matches, do we want all that work?

ronie Wrote:'fraid not. update percentage is not available to the skin in xbmc.
you could create a feature request for it though...
ronie, could you do it this way?
Have a folder of images for the needle at positions 0-100 and then use -
PHP Code:
<texture>$INFO[Control.GetLabel(404),gauge/,.png]</texture>

so no problem there as far as i can tell.

i've limited it to 20 in paperstreet.

i agree, but can't think of a better way.
maybe ppic could set up the script in a different way?
like, have it run all the time and monitor the currently focused item in a list
and set the window properties on the fly?
i came across something related recently:

good thinking!
Control.GetLabel(404) indeed returns the current percentage. :-)
cheers mate.

No problem.
I'm keeping a close eye on this skin.

I've got an extra Jersey if you're joining the team Hitch.

I'd be lying if I said I didn't want to see it's progress but as I've just started work on another skin I couldn't really offer any help.

that a way, i've been thinking too, came to me when working on artist stuff.
wouldn't be bad, that's kind of way i use with tvtunes.
for ended show, i can provide a list by the script for your strincompare.
if the show doesn't appear on next aired list, this doesn't mean it's ended, maybe the script haven't be able to get the info

Oh I totally understand, I was really just teasing.
I'm sure we can find a way to keep you up to date...
