[QUOTE="FredP42, post: 805200, member: 91354"] [b]Re : Plug-in for Media portal Help![/b] Hello basimm, It is true that the documentation of MediaPortal is light, but I have to admit it has improved a lot! The wiki has a lot of information and the [url=http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/1_MEDIAPORTAL_1/18_Contribute/6_Plugins/Plugin_Developer%27s_Guide]Plugin Developer's Guide - MediaPortal Wiki[/url] is the good place to start to create a plugin. I remember seeing a demo plugin with several controls but I couldn't find the link :( A skin control is very similar to a regular Form control. VisualStudio completion helps to discover the methods of the control, it is just annoying not to have the documentation. If you want to populate a list, you can do: [CODE] // add a listcontrol to the skin with id = 10 [SkinControlAttribute(10)] protected GUIListControl lstDetails = null; private void PopulateList(string[] list) { foreach (string str in list) { GUIListItem item = new GUIListItem(); item.Label = str; lstDetails.Add(item); } } [/CODE] For the master-details-sub details forms, I don't know what you want to do exactly but it seems you'll need two controls a list and a text control (?).
