[QUOTE="LudoJ, post: 157261, member: 24258"] Hi guys, I'm new to plugin development. I'm trying to write a little process plugin. I've followed the "How to write a plugin for MP" tutorial. For the moment, my goal is very simple, I just want to display a pop-up when MP starts. Here is hat I've done for now: [CODE] using System; using System.Windows.Forms; using MediaPortal.GUI.Library; using MediaPortal.Dialogs; namespace WhosCalling { public class Class1 : GUIWindow, ISetupForm { public Class1() { // // TODO: Add constructor logic here // } #region IPlugin Members public void Start() { GUIDialogOK dlg = (GUIDialogOK)GUIWindowManager.GetWindow((int)GUIWindow.Window.WINDOW_DIALOG_OK); dlg.SetHeading("Hello World"); dlg.SetLine(1, String.Empty); dlg.SetLine(2, String.Empty); dlg.SetLine(3, String.Empty); dlg.DoModal(GUIWindowManager.ActiveWindow); } public void Stop() { } #endregion #region ISetupForm Members // Returns the name of the plugin which is shown in the plugin menu public string PluginName() { return "MyFirstPlugin"; } [...] #endregion } }[/CODE] As you can see, this is very simple... I can see it and enable it under the configurator, but my pop-up does not show at MP's startup... What am I doing wrong? At the same time if any one could tell me how to do a thread or a timer, that would be good :-) Ludo... [/QUOTE]
