Hi guys,
While updating my skin for one last hurrah before moving development from Kyrpton to Leia I have run into an issue with trying to show an actors library media. In order to provide a actors info screen I am using skin.helper script to replace the standard id 50 cast list with an alternative list provided by skin.helper. This is working well, but where clicking on an actor in list id 50 brings up a selection dialog with all of the actors movies, tvshows and episodes, using the skin.helper script does not provide any way to display this list of media.
The only way I can see to achieve my aim is to use some like this
videodb://movies/actors/$INFO[listitem.label]/
As a content tag, but I would need to repeat the above for TvShows and episodes (well the TvShow part would work). Kyrpton does not allow multiple content tags, so is there a way to achieve what I am trying to replace, or am I stuck with just providing a list of movies or a list of TvShows?
