i'm not sure why, but the json calls to your database are failing.

mind posting a full debug log so i can check if there's some pointers elsewhere in the log.

ronie,

Could I jump in here with a request please. Have just made a push to my skins svn with built in support of this script, but was wondering why you have set all the video type files to default to DefaultVideo.png for the fallback icons. Could we have the icons set to DefaultMovie for movies and DefaultTVShows for TV shows? Or even better if it is possible to allow the skin to over ride your defaults if I set a fallback to something else?

BTW, love the script, really nice job on this one mate.

Wyrm (xTV-SAF)

@wyrm

:-)) Mate, you surely are on fire :-) You made some major steps with xTV recently. Kudos.

Should this global search function not be a feature in XBMC's core so it will be used by all skinners?

Why is a python script needed for it?

because the guy that took his time to create it for you writes in python, not c++.

patches welcome.
