v20 How to display addon (ipcams) settings in Skin (Arctic Zephyr) for AlexElec (CoreElec
#1
Not sure where else I can ask...already posted here, #5573:
https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid...id=3149080

I have installed plugin.video.ipcams (Surveillence Camera addon) on my alexelec.tv PCx86 v11.1.3 Nexus 20.1 distro (fork of CoreEelec.) It shows fine as a skin menu short cut in Arctic Zephyr Nexus !

Now I want a submenu that can display the settings of Surveillence Camera, and this did not work:

Arctic Zephyr Reloaded > Customize home menu > Menu> submenu> Action > Custom item > Opens keyboard, so I type: ActivateWindow(Addon.OpenSettings(plugin.video.ipcams))

Maybe this should look like: ActivateWindow(Videos, "Addon.OpenSettings(plugin.video.ipcams)", return) but I am not a dev !

Got the idea from:
https://xbmc.github.io/docs.kodi.tv/mast...tions.html
https://kodi.wiki/view/Opening_Windows_and_Dialogs

What am I doing wrong ? Please help !

probably just Addon.OpenSettings(plugin.video.ipcams)

ActivateWindow activates a window from the system list - https://kodi.wiki/view/Window_IDs

Thanks again, last from plugin.video.youtube forum.

This worked ! I wish Kodi wiki was written a bit more explicitly- would mak ethe job of volunteer devs and helpful folks much easier.

BTW, the answer to my youtube /live formats:
