I'll exaplain:

I'm providing support for plugin.video.jworg to be launched from shortcut on confluence home screen.

Because is will be launched without content_type param [and this is strange, because xmbc knows from where it's started !], the plugin do nothing.

I'm writing a simple menu to chosse from audio/video/program feature of my addon.
I'd like to reuse OFFICIAl string id, so they're already translated and coherent with xbmc main menu.

Is there a way?

I know how to get a translated string, but I don't know how to use one of DEFAULT, core, system, strings, like "video", "music", "programs", of the home screen.

I need exactly these 3 strings, but I don't know
1. - string id
2. - if it's a good idea to use it in my plugin

I doubt it would even work for plugins. Second we do not recommend using core strings as they might well change or vanish during development

Ok, thanks.
In last days I already created custom string ids into my plugin, so now I'm happy I've done right.
