Title: Writing plugins
Post by: rick.ca on November 20, 2010, 09:01:25 pm
How can we go about writing plugin?

I have quite a few Chinese movies and documentary that cannot be found in IMDB. However, they can be found in www.yesasia.com

I google search and manage to find a DVDpedia written for Mac with yesasia plugin. Wondering is it possible to find out how to do it?

If you have to ask, writing a plugin is probably out of the question. A plugin is a compiled (just like the main program) library that requires the same development tools and programming expertise nostra has.

But you might be able to create a script. A script is a set of text instructions that are processed by the script engine. An instruction manual is available in the Help (http://www.videodb.info/forum_en/index.php?board=11.0) documentation. You'll find examples, like allmovie.psf, in your Scripts folder.
