    Hello,

    I'm looking for a simple example how to work with list control.
    Would like to read folder and display all subfolders as a entry on a list box.

    Thanks waeberd :)

    Well ... looks like i need to be more specific when asking questions :oops:

    Im trying to make a myquiz plugin. One part of a plugin is a contol where user can select which quiz she/he will take. It is a list of "quiz names" there can be several quiz to choose from so this list can be several pages long.

    So Im trying to generate control on MP gui.

    ok :D

    in this case, I would choose a GUIListControl. This contains many GUIListItems.

    I use the following code to populate this (see GUIPrograms.cs for the whole stuff).

    Code:
    void DisplayApplications()
    {
    	GUIControl.ClearControl(GetID, (int)Controls.CONTROL_LIST ); 
    	foreach(AppItem app in apps ) // this loops an internal structure
    	{
    		GUIListItem gli = new GUIListItem( app.Title );
    		if (app.Imagefile != "")
    		{
    			gli.ThumbnailImage = app.Imagefile;
    			gli.IconImageBig = app.Imagefile;
    			gli.IconImage = app.Imagefile;
    		}
    		else 
    		{
    			gli.ThumbnailImage = GUIGraphicsContext.Skin+@"\media\DefaultFolderBig.png";
    			gli.IconImageBig = GUIGraphicsContext.Skin+@"\media\DefaultFolderBig.png";
    			gli.IconImage = GUIGraphicsContext.Skin+@"\media\DefaultFolderNF.png";
    		}
    		gli.MusicTag = app; // this is for speeding-up only
    		gli.IsFolder = false;
    		GUIControl.AddListItemControl(GetID,(int)Controls.CONTROL_LIST, gli );
    	}
    }

    Hope that helps!

    I meant use MP client to try to spot how it's requesting streams for specific channels and then try to do the same with VLC. TV Server development looks dead so I'm afraid you're going to have to figure that out by yourself if it's even possible.

    Well, all that remains is to find someone who will add this render if it is a render.
