Few Questions/Requests
- Is there a possibility to only update TV-shows and not Movies?
- Would it be possible to add an option to automatically run the watchlist addon after a library update? Or do a restart of xbmc after updating so watchlist gets updated?

Thx, LoL

Thanks, glad you find the addon useful. Regarding your requests:

1. I would really like to offer this functionality, but need to explore it a little more. You can give a 'path' parameters to the update library function, the problem is I'll need a way of figuring out which paths belong to which pieces of content. Right now everything is either Video or Music, but I may be able to find a way to query the main video DB and get the info. Not making any promises though! On the plus side I am working on separating the timers for video and music, I know people have been asking for this so I'd like to get this one done soon. It really isn't too hard but I wanted to reconfigure the codebase to make it easier to add more timers in the future as well.

2. Running a script once the library update finishes is a great idea - not something that occurred to me before. I think once I have the music/video timers separated I will try to add this functionality. This way you could kick off another addon/script for each video and music.

Thanks for the suggestions. I'll be sure to post back here as updates come out so you have an idea of when you might see some of this.

If it triggers while I'm watching something, then it runs as soon as I'm done watching, which prevents me from removing what I just watched from the library or conveniently watching something else immediately. Stopping the update from the context menu tends to cause my ATV2 to hang for as much as a minute while it processes.

I would also like for the default timers to include some factors of 24 so they can trigger on a more regular schedule. 4, 6 & 12 would be nice. I tried to use the cron timer and it was kind of difficult.

Thank you for your hard work on this service, I love it even if it does annoy me once in a while.

• Separating of Video and Music Timers
  
• Interval timer now uses a cron expression on the backend for better reuse of code
  
• 1 minute delay of scan if scan should have run during media playback. This should prevent the problem that sometimes happens when XBMC is done playing media and a scan starts instantly. Starting a new media file resets the 1 minute timer again. (thanks @Lathlas for the idea).
