Autostart Eurosport Player (Addon)

1st Official Post

    Hi guys. I read a lot about this topic in the net but it did not help me.

    Is there a possibility to start the Eurosport Player on startup?

    I read about creating files in user dictionary and stuff but i was not able to start it.

    Do you know an easy script or how to create it?

    Thanks in advance

    Thanks for your answer but that did not help me.

    1) Could you tell me the command to open the Plugin?

    import xbmc

    xbmc.executebuiltin('XBMC.RunScript(script.video.eurosportplayer)')

    That did not work


    xbmc.executebuiltin("RunAddon(script.eurosportplayer)")

    -sh: syntax error: unexpected word (expecting ")")

    -sh: syntax error: unexpected ")"


    This does not work either

    I'm afraid nobody can can help without logs.

    Please provide a full debug log.

    How to post a log (wiki)

    1. Enable debugging in Settings>System Settings>Logging
    2. Restart Kodi
    3. Replicate the problem
    4. Generate a log URL (do not post/upload logs to the forum)

    use "Settings > LibreELEC > System > Paste system logs" or run "pastekodi" over SSH, then post the URL link

    So, the above aroused my curiosity and I tried it... with youtube (plugin.video.youtube). According to the instructions on kodi's wiki,

    - I made the service.autoexec folder and inside it

    - I made the autoexec.xml file exactly as described on the wiki

    - I made the autoexec.py file like so

    Code
    import xbmc
xbmc.executebuiltin('RunAddon(plugin.video.youtube)')

    Proof of the above

    Code
    letest:~/.kodi/addons # ls service.autoexec/
autoexec.py   autoexec.xml

    But I failed at step 1.4 which says about enabling the autoexec addon because there is no autoexec addon listed in there!

    I also tried enabling it with

    Code
    kodi-send --action="EnableAddon(service.autoexec)"

    If it helps, running

    Code
    kodi-send --action="RunAddon(plugin.video.youtube)"

    does spawn youtube. There is nothing related to autoexec in the log.

    ---edit

    I need a new pair of glasses :P The right file name for the xml is addon.xml not autoexec.xml!

    I renamed it and now it works as it should.
