Hi guys,
Just looking to see if anyone knows how to auto start a plugin on start up of after a certain time after startup.

1. Edit the Plugin's plugin.py
If the plugin doesn't already have a mechanism for autostarting, you can edit its plugin.py file or add a separate script.
PictureCenterFS plugin plugin.py code example:
Python
Display Morefrom Plugins.Plugin import PluginDescriptor from Plugins.Extensions.PictureCenterFS.plugin import PictureCenterFS7 import Screens.Standby import time def autostart(session, **kwargs): # Auto-launch the gallery session.open(PictureCenterFS7) def Plugins(**kwargs): return [PluginDescriptor(where=PluginDescriptor.WHERE_SESSIONSTART, fnc=autostart)]2. Delayed Start
If you want to delay the start, you can use reactor.callLater:
for eg..
Python
Display Morefrom Plugins.Plugin import PluginDescriptor from Plugins.Extensions.PictureCenterFS.plugin import PictureCenterFS7 import Screens.Standby import time def autostart(session, **kwargs): def open_gallery(): session.open(PictureCenterFS7) # 300 second delay from twisted.internet import reactor reactor.callLater(300, open_gallery) # # add to def Plugins(**kwargs): plist = [] plist.append(PluginDescriptor(name="PictureCenterFS", where=PluginDescriptor.WHERE_SESSIONSTART, fnc=autostart))as for the personal gallery, you then have to modify the plugin in some points, in my opinion, based on what you need to do, but the discussion becomes more delicate
