I am at wits end, i have read, tried tested, and repeated 100's of times.
What I want is simple, or so i thought, i made myself a now playing popup dialog, which works fine, but i wanted more, so i decided that i would change the pyhton script, instead of calling the dialog, to call the window when you pause (dialogVideoInfo.xml?) but i cannot get it to work.
So my question is simple, or so i think, how would one go calling the pause/"i" window everytime a new video starts, the changing in videos i have, i tested it, but the calling of the window does not work.
The above code does not work, it runs, no errors, but no "i" display
Hope my wording on this question makes sense, its late, and i have been sitting here trying to figure it out without enough caffeine for way to long :p

PHP Code:
last_video = getCurrentVideo()
while ( not xbmc.abortRequested ):
xbmc.sleep(1000) #sleep 1000ms (1s)
current_video = getCurrentVideo()
if (current_video != None and current_video != last_video):
title = current_video['showtitle']
xbmc.executebuiltin("XBMC.ActivateWindow(10115)")
last_video = current_video
