Hi, 
I would like to make a simple kodi addon that just plays a simple .m3u8 link, there is no problem with the installation, but when I start the addon it does nothing and the error is not logged

does anyone have any idea what I'm doing wrong?
thanks in advance!

python:
#addon.xml file

<addon id="plugin.video.play_test" name="play_test" version="0.0.1" provider-name="asd">

    <extension point="xbmc.python.pluginsource" library="main.py"></extension>

</addon>



#main.py file

import xbmcaddon

import xbmcgui

import xbmcplugin

import urllib.parse

import sys



addon = xbmcaddon.Addon()



def play_video(url):

    xbmcplugin.setResolvedUrl(handle=int(sys.argv[1]), succeeded=True, listitem=xbmcgui.ListItem(path=url))



params = {'url': 'https://....m3u8_link'}



video = {'title': 'Test Video', 'url': params['url']}



url = sys.argv[0] + '?action=play&title=' + urllib.parse.quote(video['title']) + '&url=' + urllib.parse.quote(video['url'])



play_video(video['url'])

Check your tags, you are closing right after defining the addon.

Can you post the logs for when you run the addon ?  This will allow us to see if the player is starting and whether it is getting an error .


Thanks,

Not sure you're playing anything?  Is there more code than this that adds the listitem to a directory?

Not any expert but I would think you need something like:

python:
def play_video(url):

    liz = xbmcgui.ListItem(path=url)

    xbmcplugin.setResolvedUrl(handle=int(sys.argv[1]), succeeded=True, listitem=liz)

    xbmc.Player().play(liz.getPath())
