you only browse to the folder, not the .py file

Should the back .. be added by XBMC to plugin directories if it's enabled in settings?

It should be, yes. XBMC should do this for any directory, regardless of content. It is not the plugin's role to accomplish this.
Always read the XBMC online-manual, FAQ and search the forum before posting.

Just used this feature in the latest T3CH, and it's very awesome Smile It looks great, and I might write a couple of plugins myself soon. This beats making your own window by a lot

You want to know if you can use xbmcplugin to fill a media list in a WindowXML python script?

I'm not sure I understand the advantage. You would not get the views or the sort by for instance.
Yes, so that python scripters could have the option to fill media lists in thier own WindowXML built GUI using xbmcplugin. The advantage would from the end-users perspective, the users would not have to use 'Add Source' and get the lists and updates options all from the same view/GUI in the script. Of course it would then be nice to have the same 'sort by' options inside the script lists views as well.

JMarshall, the back .. is not showing for me, with a fresh build Revision 10193. It is enabled and it shows in other virews, just not plugins.

Gamester17, I'll test it, I'm not sure.

Nuka, I'm using the brand new T3CH and have the AMT script from SVN. The plugin displays the initial categories but hangs if I go into one of the categories. I have a valid full database. In the script window, it says tuple index out of range. Did I do anything wrong? Sorry to bother you with this...

I probably should have mentioned that an older version of the plugin works very well...

Sounds like the cast isn't working, which is the most recent addition.

i just grabbed the plugin from svn and it works fine.

http://xbmc-scripting.googlecode.com/svn...Plugin.zip

I updated that yesterday, the brand new tech should include the correct plugin. The brand new tech was released yesterday.

Ah, thanks a lot. Now I'm using the plugin from T3CH and it works. How about a central place to store all the plugins? Maybe we could start a new Plugins folder in SVN?
