should be reasonably easy to do (although you're never sure until you actually start to code it)...
run the script when the videoinfo dialog opens and pass ListItem.FileNameAndPath to the script.
the script should be able to check for the subtitle files and pass the result back to the skin as a window property.

something like that?

unfortunately im not a python/ script guy.. but theres always a time to start right . and im guessing thats now. im going to hack away at it, so intheory for now, if i exceute xbmc subtitle script in conjunction with dialouge info it probably wont pass recognize the dialouge window, im pretty sure it lookd for whats currently playing not whats in the list. is it possible to get me started in the right direction.

cause what im about to do is guess until i get soemthign to work. if i copy subtitle script and change the name and details and make it launch on focus with dialoge ill see what happens then

but yes like you said. run script on open dialouge or focus ( like in a wallstream or list view) and pass info back to skin to either displa image or not based on if it finds the file in the path .

i'll see if i can come up with some code.
looking at xbmc subtitles would indeed be the way to start.

thanks, im tryign it now to see what i can come up with, jsut reading the gui.py of the xbmc subtitle

Code:

self.getControl( 111 ).setVisible( False )                              # check for existing subtitles and set to "True" if found

    sub_exts = ["srt", "sub", "txt", "smi", "ssa", "ass" ]

    br = 0

    for i in range(3):

      for sub_ext in sub_exts:

        if br == 0:

          exec("lang = toOpenSubtitles_two(self.language_%s)" % (str(i+1)) )

          if os.path.isfile ("%s.%s.%s" % (os.path.join(sub_folder,os.path.splitext( os.path.basename( self.file_original_path ) )[0]),lang ,sub_ext,)):

            self.getControl( 111 ).setVisible( True )

            br = 1

            break

that is what i am trying to utilize

here's some basic code to get you started:

dharma: http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=cD8sXfiM

eden-pre: http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=jtHrzabS

i haven't tested the dharma code, but the eden-pre one works fine.

in DialogVideoInfo.xml, run the script like this:

Code:

RunScript(script.subtitleinfo,path=&quot;$INFO[ListItem.FileNameAndPath]&quot;)

the script will set Window.Property(SubtitleInfo) to 'true' when a subtitle is found.

should i expect a result if <include name="SubFlaggingConditions">
<control type="image">
<description>Closed Captioning Image</description>
<width>60</width>
<height>33</height>
<aspectratio>keep</aspectratio>
<texture>$INFO[Window([12003]).Property(SubtitleInfo),sub/,.png]</texture>
</control>

is in the skin while the script is executed?

**ronie** · 2011-06-09 21:17

if you remove the square brackets, you might get a result, yes

Code:

$INFO[Window(12003).Property(SubtitleInfo),sub/,.png]

cruzannavy · 2011-06-09 21:27

i have the script running on focus of the window. and i ca nseeit being executed in the debug log. now im just alittle confused on how i would use the result to display an image. what i want to do is create a studio flag condition im my includecodecflagging.xml and then just use the include name to add to the group of media flags already in the dialoug window. could i use a visible to get it to work or how do i go about , been trying to figure it out. still learning and reading as much as i can about skinning but i dont know too much about python scriptsinteraction with the skin. but i am a quick learner

**ronie** · 2011-06-09 21:32

since the window property will return 'true', you'll have to create a true.png image in your case.

so skin.foo/media/sub/true.png must exist.
