Remove or Skip Chapters in Bookmark List - MediaPlayerFan - 2021-04-17
I would like to be able to access the bookmarks I created and move from one to another without Chapters in the list of bookmarks. I can hide the Chapters using:
<visible>!String.StartsWith(ListItem.Label,Chapter)</visible>
but that keeps the Chapters in the bookmark list and does not allow for navigating directly between the created bookmarks. Is there a way to eliminate Chapters from the bookmark list created in VideoOSDBookmarks or alternately do not create Chapter bookmarks at all?
RE: Remove or Skip Chapters in Bookmark List - MediaPlayerFan - 2021-04-29
There is a solution using if else statements in python scripts.
if xbmc.getCondVisibility("String.StartsWith(ListItem.Label,Chapter)"):
xbmc.executebuiltin("Action(Right)")
time.sleep(0.01)
else:
break
I can directly jump to a bookmarked location (excluding chapters) with a script. Number one jumps to the first bookmarked location. One long press jumps to the eleventh bookmark. Knowing how to compare the ListItem.Label2 (time) to the Player.Time would provide a way to jump to the next bookmark after the current Player.Time. Does anyone know how to make this work?
Some details:
- This should work for any skin with bookmarks in a single horizontal row. I tested it with AeonNoxSilvo.
- <onright> and <onleft> need to be disabled in VideoOSDBookmarks.xml.
- The code below is the script to jump to the second bookmark. The first loop is to return the focused item to the beginning of the list. Perhaps there is a single action to do that?
- The next two loops find the first and second bookmarks (not counting chapters). Nested loops with IF statements were problematic.
- The last loop is for cases where I am seeking beyond the end of the bookmarks and the last list item is a chapter. This loop will go back to the last bookmark that is not a chapter.
import xbmc
import time
xbmc.executebuiltin("ActivateWindow(VideoBookmarks)")
for x in range(50):
xbmc.executebuiltin("Action(Left)")
for x in range(25):
if xbmc.getCondVisibility("String.StartsWith(ListItem.Label,Chapter)"):
xbmc.executebuiltin("Action(Right)")
time.sleep(0.01)
else:
break
xbmc.executebuiltin("Action(Right)")
time.sleep(0.01)
for x in range(25):
if xbmc.getCondVisibility("String.StartsWith(ListItem.Label,Chapter)"):
xbmc.executebuiltin("Action(Right)")
time.sleep(0.01)
else:
break
time.sleep(0.1)
for x in range(25):
if xbmc.getCondVisibility("String.StartsWith(ListItem.Label,Chapter)"):
xbmc.executebuiltin("Action(Left)")
time.sleep(0.01)
else:
break
xbmc.executebuiltin("Action(Select)")
xbmc.executebuiltin("Action(Close)")

One more detail: Using the above script will create a bookmark if there are no bookmarks. To prevent that, add the following lines after xbmc.executebuiltin("ActivateWindow(VideoBookmarks)")
xbmc.executebuiltin("Action(Right)")
time.sleep(0.01)
if xbmc.getCondVisibility("String.StartsWith(ListItem.Label,Chapter)") | xbmc.getCondVisibility("String.StartsWith(ListItem.Label,Bookmark)"):
xbmc.executebuiltin("Action(noop)")
else:
xbmc.executebuiltin("Action(close)")

Hi!
I've been looking for a replacement for this add-on for years but since json-rpc no one has succeeded...
[RELEASE] Video bookmarks browser
I see you are making progress with bookmark's for the first time
thanks and I am very happy for that!
even if bookmarks could not be put on the main screen as widgets
do you think it could be separated somewhere?
like a context menu or something like that, the point is that it should not only be visible when the video is already started
