Completed Auto play next item for TV shows

[grimfandango 5]

Hi first I would like to say how well xbmb3c is working now. I have been trying it off and on for a while (this being the first time since the start of the summer) and it really is good enough to be used as the back end to xbmc.

 

For me the only thing that my family are missing from the main xbmc features is auto play next video.

This just allows us to put a TV series on and we get a few episodes to do jobs around the house without being shouted for.

 

This is by no means a deal breaker it would just NE nice to have it as part of xbmb3c.

 

Thanks again everyone's hard work on this awesome addon we really appreciate it.

Although not exactly the same as your request, you can achieve something similar by creating a playlist and playing that instead.

You can also right click( or 'c') on the first episode you want to watch and select 'Play All From Here'

I didn't know about that feature and would not really use it but gave it a try and it throws the following exception for me:

@@xnappo -  Is it working correctly for you?

[xnappo 1597]

Weird - I have never had a problems with requests not existing, nor do I see what it has to do with this feature (in def playall (startId) .

 

My XBMC is all busted from trying to fix the repo - and gotta run to work now - so can't test.

[EDIT] I would think 'mark watched' etc would not work with this issue either.

"Play All From Here" works fine for me with the latest version from the beta repo.

Yeah I'll have to test it a bit further as I never use that feature either. Possibly its only an issue on Helix or OpenElec... but not certain at the moment

[xnappo 1597]

Yep - I am guessing for some reason Helix Python doesn't have requests?  Requests is a pretty widely used module though.

[xnappo 1597]

These is a bunch of stuff on the mailing list about changing requests versions, but I can't follow it.  You can manually get requests here:

[xnappo 1597]

I looked into merging @'s requests removal, but it was boring and annoying so I stopped.
