How to detect that TVSeries is running? (1 Viewer)

[Slurm]

I'm trying to change a plugin for touchscreen displays and want to display different information for the current video when it's played by TVSeries. But I can't find a way to determine whether the video is played by TVSeries or another plugin.

Maybe someone knows how I can do this.

Maybe look for a control that is specific to that module. first check if it is enabled and make dummy controls for labels off screen. Each would have a different control ID. Then use the visibility control to display the needed info for each instance.

<visible>control.IsVisible(ID)</visible>


These are just possibles, don't know it they would work:

for TV-Series, ... <label>#TVSeries.Series.InfoPanelLine2Key</label>

for MovingPictures ... <label>#MovingPictures.SelectedMovie.directors</label>

for MyMusic .... <label>#Play.Current.Artist</label>

for LiveTV ..... <label>#Play.Current.Channel</label)

for Recorded TV ..... ? dunno.... could be confused with live TV

etc.

if nothing else.. it must be MyVideos (too many options here, I think)



Just trying come up with some ideas.

ooops.... you're changing a plugin... not a skin....

My suggestions probably won't work then anyway.

The idea is not so bad. The problem is that most of these labels have still a value if you play another file from within another plugin. I need something that's only available when playing a video from TVSeries.
