Hi,
    I created a addon for kodi by using PI, to enable configuration in addon. I created a setting.xml file inside the resource folder, I'm trying to provide the folder location as the input to the addon as follows.

Setting.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?>
<settings>
       <setting id="Path" type="folder" label="30000" default="/home" />
    <setting type="sep" /> 
</settings>


Here i want to get the given folder path on my default.py so i simply used it

default.py:

GUI_Path = xbmcplugin.getSetting("Path")
xbmcgui.Dialog().ok(addonname,GUI_Path)

I just tried to view the folder path in Dialog box, but i'm ending up with the error like.

I just want to collect the folder location as a string to use inside my python code, 

Thank you in advance.

GUI_Path = xbmcplugin.getSetting("Path")

Kodi documentation says you need to do this:

python:
GUI_Path = xbmcplugin.getSetting(int(sys.argv[1]), "Path")

Hi!

I'm trying to move Netflix add-on settings to the new format 

xml:
<settings version="1">

But for now, I'm stucked on this:

xml:
<setting id="logout" type="action" label="30017" action="RunPlugin(plugin://plugin.video.netflix/action/logout/)" option="close"/>

Can you help me to encode this in the new format? Everything I tried failed...

Thanks!
