Apple Trailers plugin

Hi Guys,

I was writing a boxee application ans so i wanted to look at the code for the Apple Trailers application. I can't find any of the skin files or the python code files for this application. Would any of you happen to know where this stuff is located?

FYI, I'm using Boxee on Windows Vista.

I love Boxee. This app is wicked.

Thanks in advance.

the apple trailers app uses a rss feed and so uses the standard skin files provided by boxee. if you want a more complex example take a look at the youtube app. and check out the documentation at developer.boxee.tv. there's also a special developer section in this forum.

I don't think its parsing a RSS feed.

I looked at the directory of the BBC application all I could find was descriptor.xml file. There was no other code or skin files. Both Apple Trailers and BBC have different layouts, even though both get their data from a RSS feed. I'd like to know where this UI layout is defined.

I'm pretty sure, we're missing something here.

Anyone?

look at the rss feed mentioned in the descriptor.xml

there are special tags for boxee rss feeds.

you can find the specification here: http://developer.boxee.tv/rss-specification/

perhaps it would help if you tell us what exactly you are looking for and what you want to create from that.
