even if I'll create thumbs preview plugin there isn't an easy way to pass it the list of the thumbs and to retrieve the selected thumb back to the Launcher plugin.
I'll try to think more about this. but I don't think I'll find something easier.
I might be able to show thumbs preview, but I have difficults with showing thumbs from url's, if there is any programmer who can help me, I'll be glad:
Here is my code that creates that thumb list:
Code:
listitem = xbmcgui.ListItem( "%s (%s) " % (result["title"], result["url"]), iconImage="DefaultProgram.png", thumbnailImage=result["thumb"])
xbmcplugin.addDirectoryItem( handle=int( self._handle ), url="%s?%s/%s" % (self._path, launcherName, romname), listitem=listitem, isFolder=False, totalItems=total)
the result["thumb"] contains the url of the thumbnail image.
but the list appears with default icons instead of the thumbnail image.
I tried to cache them with "urllib.urlretrieve( result["thumb"] )" but it didn't work either.
