PVR addon written in python? - pez34 - 2015-05-13

Hi there, looking into writing a new PVR addon; just wanting to confirm they need to be written in C/C++ ? Could the extension point read from a python module? I have a fair amount of code working quite well as a video plugin and would like to avoid needing to rewrite it into C/C++. I was hoping the pvrclient extension point could hook into a python script/module too, but that doesn't appear to be the case?

A true pvr addon is C/C++ and doesn't resemble plugin code
