I have a need in my addon to select and activate a listitem in a certain condition. In python, I have been able to figure out how to select the listitem but not activate it/choose it. Here's what I've tried:

python:


wid = xbmcgui.getCurrentWindowId()

win = xbmcgui.Window(wid)

control = win.getFocus()

control.selectItem(1) #This correctly selects the listitem

xbmc.executebuiltin('SendClick(%(current_wid)s,%(current_item)s)'%{'current_wid':wid,'current_item':control}) #Doesn't work, debug shows WARNING: Attempt to use invalid handle xxx

xbmc.executebuiltin('SendClick(%(current_wid)s,%(current_item)s)'%{'current_wid':wid,'current_item':control.getSelectedItem()}) #Doesn't work, debug shows WARNING: Attempt to use invalid handle xxx

xbmc.executebuiltin('SendClick(%(current_item)s)'%{'current_wid':wid,'current_item':control.getSelectedItem()}) #Doesn't work, debug shows WARNING: Attempt to use invalid handle xxx

Any way to accomplish what I'm trying to do?

Thanks in advance

I had the same requirement. Nothing worked for me and I ended up with JSON-RPC calls: just move the focus and select the item:

python:
build_song_list(*bandcamp.get_album_by_url(url))

xbmc.executeJSONRPC(

'{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"Input.Down","id":1}')

xbmc.executeJSONRPC(

'{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"Input.Select","id":1}')
