hello Ronie

Iseem to be having an issue with the script. Both on Startup & manual activation, i get the error code:
File "/.xbmc/addons/script.randomitems/RandomItems.py", line 11, in <module>
__addon__ = xbmcaddon.Addon()
Exception: No valid addon id could be obtained. None was passed and the script wasn't executed in a normal xbmc manner.

i'd really appreciate any help you could offer, since this is my most used script as it takes the pressure of having to make decisions off of me after waking up.

Hi Guys,

I've setup Recent/Random Albums however when trying to play a 'Random' album i get this error in the debug log...

http://pastebin.com/MEqLFA7p

As you can see, it's trying to select '6.11:00:16 T:1536 DEBUG: Connecting to sqlite:C:\Program Files (x86)\XBMC (Welo)\portable_data\userdata\Database\:MyVideos57.db' instead of MyMusic*blah*.db.

It's then trying to connect using DVDPlayer!

Here's a working log from a 'Recent' album...

http://pastebin.com/ytPCpxYj

Any ideas? XBMC bug or RandomItems script bug? Me being stupid?!

Here's a sample of my recent and random code...

PHP Code:

                        <item id="1">
                            <icon>$INFO[Window.Property(LatestAlbum.1.Thumb)]</icon>
                            <label>$INFO[Window.Property(LatestAlbum.1.Title)]</label>
                            <label2>$INFO[Window.Property(LatestAlbum.1.Artist)]</label2>
                            <property name="ItemRating">$INFO[Window.Property(LatestAlbum.1.Rating)]</property>
                            <onclick>Playlist.Clear</onclick>                            
                            <onclick>$INFO[Window.Property(LatestAlbum.1.Path),PlayMedia(,)]</onclick>
                            <visible>!Skin.HasSetting(RecentRandomSongs) + !Skin.HasSetting(HomeRandom) + !IsEmpty(Window.Property(LatestAlbum.1.Title))</visible>
                        </item> 


PHP Code:

                        <item id="1">
                            <icon>$INFO[Window.Property(RandomAlbum.1.Thumb)]</icon>
                            <label>$INFO[Window.Property(RandomAlbum.1.Title)]</label>
                            <label2>$INFO[Window.Property(RandomAlbum.1.Artist)]</label2>
                            <property name="ItemRating">$INFO[Window.Property(RandomAlbum.1.Rating)]</property>
                            <onclick>Playlist.Clear</onclick>                                
                            <onclick>$INFO[Window.Property(RandomAlbum.1.Path),PlayMedia(,)]</onclick>
                            <visible>!Skin.HasSetting(RecentRandomSongs) + Skin.HasSetting(HomeRandom) + !IsEmpty(Window.Property(RandomAlbum.1.Title))</visible>
                        </item> 


Cheers

[ronie]

remove the PlayMedia bit, it's not needed for randomitems.

Code:

<onclick>$INFO[Window.Property(RandomAlbum.1.Path)]</onclick>

Getting an error with this addon, this seems like relevant part:

the script needs the elementtree module:
script.module.elementtree

it should've been installed automatically though...

I manually unzipped it, installed via .zip and everything fine, thx...
