Have been ill today so was flicking though Voinage's tutorial and knocked together this very quick and dirty plugin. Thanks for that Voinage.

Not sure if anyone else will be interested I was just scratching an itch but thought I'd chuck it out there anyway.

Gresham College is a London college which has been providing free public lectures for hundreds of years. Lately they have been recording the lectures and publishing them at http://www.gresham.ac.uk/default.asp. They lecture on a whole range of subjects and it's a really great resource..particularly if you live in London and can visit.

I've just scraped all the links, obviously mp4/mp3 are nicer than real audio/video but the content for each lecture varies.

Navigation isn't great, I might do it by year or I might never look at it again.Big Grin

Glad to help.

You appear to be a fellow writer or at least have an unhealthy interest.

If you do hold a black box for Tv Sched rating, please, keep pressing the button for toilet.

Oh, and read more excellent scrunched Brian Cant loving Charlie Brooker - Haha.

weateallthepies -- thanks for doing this. If it helps motivate you, I think this is great and would LOVE to see some better navigation. Also, someone should drop it into the SVN Repo!

Hi,


Just to let you know guys, I made it available this week via the script Installer Passion-XBMC in order to allow people to install it directly from XBMC.
BTW weateallthepies, nice plugin! Smile

Cool, I'm really glad someone else found it interesting.

I may well have a look at navigation but it's pretty poor on the site to start with. There is a search so maybe that could be used. Shame they don't list by subject.

I'm not really up to speed on svn, have limited time for any tinkering generally.

Thanks for that, I had a play with your script the other day and it's a great little interface for installing stuff. Anything that makes my life easier gets a thumbs up. Big Grin
