How to show DialogBusy window after leaving a list of movie from an actor ? - Patobeurre - 2024-09-04
Hi everyone,
I want to add the busy windows after leaving the movies list from an actor.
Does anyone know how to do so ?
I found that when you select an actor it opens this : CGUIMediaWindow::GetDirectory (videodb://movies/actors/XXXXX/), where XXXXX is the ID of the actor.
I tried to make an autoexec addon, but i don't know if it's really initialized...
Thanks for your help !

xbmc.executebuiltin('ActivateWindow(busydialognocancel)')

I assume you are writing a script to run from a context menu. Need more detail what you are trying to accomplish.

Hello
Thanks for your reply
I m trying to show the dialogbusy when i m on a list of movies from an actor.
Actually it's almost working...
Here is my addon code :
Code:
import xbmc
import xbmcgui
import re #Import de Regex
class ActorDialogService(xbmc.Monitor):
def show_busy(self):
xbmc.executebuiltin('Action(Back)')
xbmc.executebuiltin('ActivateWindow(busydialognocancel)')
xbmc.sleep(5000)
xbmc.executebuiltin('Dialog.Close(busydialognocancel)')
def run(self):
actorDirectory = str(xbmc.getInfoLabel('Container.FolderPath'))
if re.search("actors/\d",actorDirectory) != None: #To show dialogbusy if a list of movies from an actor is displayed
self.show_busy()
else :
xbmc.executebuiltin('Action(Back)')
ActorDialogService().run()And here is my keymap :
Code:
<keymap><global><keyboard><key id="61448">runaddon(service.showactordialog)</key></keyboard></global></keymap>The actual problem is that the dialogbusy seems to appear for the 5 seconds, but, not on top of the movies list from actor window.
Is there any way to fix that ?
Also, is it possible to start a script instead of an addon ?
