Hi,

I have searched the forums and have not been able to find a definite answer to my question... is there a smugmug add-on for XBMC?

I have recently bought an Apple TV 2 and have put XBMC on it and it works great (except for the fact that it crashes whenever I play mkv or mp4 files - but I think that is a known issue). The native iOS allows me to display my photos from iTunes which is good... but requires my mac to be powered up.

I would take on the task of creating an add-on if one does not exist, but this would probably be some time off as I have no real experience in this area and would need a lot of guidance.

Thanks in advance.

I would be interested in this... any progress on the Add-on?

I'm also interested.

I can start developing my own plugin but I thinks it's not wise to develop 2 plugins for the same purpose.
So I'm wondering if aab203 is currently working on this add-on, and what the status of the project may be.

Is anyone actively developing a plugin for SmugMug? I'd love to have this. I'd be willing to help out as well if someone is. I have a lot of experience developing software - but more like device drivers - not so much web stuff (a little though).

In this topic I asked if aab203 is developing this plugin.
Since his last post (and login) is from the day he registered, and he hasn't responded to the question I guess he isn't developing.

I want to develop this add-on so I'm currently reading the topics/guides on how to create an add-on. I also requested a api key from smugmug already.
Before I can start developing I have to figure out a few more things, like:

oauth for the login from within the add-on
api calls to smugmug (how to retreive the albums/photos)
local caching of the photos
how to create a slideshow

After that, any help is welcome since this is my first plugin Smile

I have little experience with developing device drivers, but I have been developing for web the last 11 years now (in a few different languages).

GREAT NEWS.... CyberJack

I hope you can get it working. Wish I could help.

Love SmugMug! In fact, I was really surprised there was no XBMC plugin for it.

I can't offer any coding support, since I don't have any experience, but here is some moral support Smile

Just a quick update.

I started the development on the SmugMug addon.
Sadly I haven't had much time last few weeks, but I've planned this complete Saturday.
I hope to make some real progress this weekend.

That's great CyberJack.... Keep it up!

Thanks again

I have no experience with developing anything, but just few things for myself. I can do tcl, perl, c (some) and c#. Let me know if I can help.

Thanks again.

I was so surprised and disappointed when I did a search for a SM plugin and came up empty. Thanks for taking this on!

Hi everyone,

Just saw this and thought I would check how it was going? I might be able to offer my help on this (not that it will be much). I am from a programing background but like you haven't done a plug in before; but this is a good place to start as I have a few photo's on smugmug and this sort of plug in would be handy.

adefiore · 2013-04-03, 01:42

Has anyone made any progress on this plugin.

n1ght3y3s · 2013-04-03, 01:46

Hi,

There really wasn't any interest/response on this so I never really took it any further. Not sure if the original author did any further work. There is still a possibility that I could do something here but would need to take another look at whats involved.[/quote]
