Hello, I never tried to write a plugin in VB but it should be easy to translate the example.I only have VS C# Express at home so I can not try it, but creating the project, adding the references, implementing the interface should be pretty similar?Which instructions are giving you troubles?For the directory I think that if your files are only related to a skin it is better to keep it in the skin directory.Maybe one exception is that if you want to keep the settings when reinstalling the skin, in this case I will put it in the config directory (see example).There is an enum in the MediaPortal.Configuration.Config called Dir which gives all the directories.Then (C#) you do this to get the path to the file:[CODE] string file = Config.GetFile(Config.Dir.Config, "myfile.xml");[/CODE]

For the directory I think that if your files are only related to a skin it is better to keep it in the skin directory.
Maybe one exception is that if you want to keep the settings when reinstalling the skin, in this case I will put it in the config directory (see example).
There is an enum in the MediaPortal.Configuration.Config called Dir which gives all the directories.
Then (C#) you do this to get the path to the file:
[CODE] string file = Config.GetFile(Config.Dir.Config, "myfile.xml");[/CODE]
