Description

autoexec.py is an optional python script that users can create in their userdata folders that will be executed when XBMC starts up.

Examples

This script will open up the video files view focused on the root of C:\ when XBMC is started.

 import xbmc
 xbmc.executebuiltin('XBMC.ActivateWindow(videofiles,C:\)')

Here is an example that starts your favourite addon:

 import xbmc
 xbmc.executebuiltin('XBMC.RunScript(script.audio.spotimc)')

And this example takes you to the movie overview:

 import xbmc
 xbmc.executebuiltin('XBMC.ActivateWindow(myvideolibrary,movietitles)')
