XtraEvent plugin by @digiteng

Thanks to author for nice plugin.
Thanks also to our user @mosad for help with plugin,testing and skin coding modifications.

Plugin you can download from image plugins server.

This plugin has been created to get more information and images(poster,background,banner,info...) about events.
source data are obtained from public websites(tmdb, tvdb, omdb, maze ...).
this plugin is open source and free...
Shareable changes can be made by protecting non-commercial and "digiteng" rights...
plug-in features;
- Event sources can be downloaded in three different ways ... directly, manually, by timer ...
- Event mode can be selected as "current channel" and "bouquets".
- The number of events and how many events belonging to the channel can be selected.
- the search language can be set ...
usage and recommendations;
- when you first open the plugin, first set the download location (/media/hdd or /media/usb/ or some other folder... quit and reopen the plugin ...
- The plugin will create a folder /path/xtraEvent/poster (banner, backdrop, infos, EMC, mSearch...)
- You can enter your api key for tmdb, tvdb .... etc from the plugin ... this will be better in terms of search traffic ...
even if you do not enter the api key, it will work with internal keys ...
recommended;
- set "bouquets" for main use and set the timer(1-23 hour) ... open the sources ... press "search" green button ...
select your bouquet from the popup window ... save (green) ... when you get to the home screen "download"
You can download using the plugin or with Timer.
With a plugin
click the download button in the downloads panel.

I think I will use in my skins only posters and info
So for this skins you just need to download posters and info from the servers and this plugin and not the rest.
But that remains depending on the skin used.

Thanks and appreciation for designing this wonderful plugin to bring different posters to events, movies, series or programs
I use the plugin since the first version,
And happy with what distinguishes it from the scripts that bring posters directly when zapping between channels
Because of the timer that it contains, it can be controlled to load the following posters for the selected bouquet, so it is light when used and does not cause problems or spinning

We have many wishes that we hope to fulfill in the future

1 - which is the designers’ reliance on the skins in their construction on the plugin for what was previously mentioned
2 - develop the plugin to be compatible with Python 3
3 - the possibility of adding Arabic sites to bring posters, such as the cinema site, due to the specificity of the language and the lack of a database on international sites, as well as the interest in reading blogs for events in the Arabic language

Greetings and good luck always

For those who want more information about this plugin and how to make your own api keys for this plugin.
You can enter your api key for tmdb, tvdb .... etc from the plugin ... this will be better in terms of search traffic ...
but even if you do not enter the api key, it will work with internal keys ...

[B]@mosad[/B] made good instructions in the pdf file and video on YouTube
link is within the instructions.

XtraEvent V3.3 mod for OpenBh

Use ONLY for OpenBh 5.0.002 (and Up)
uses only with corresponding skins

Plugin download from image plugin server
Green button>>yellow>>Addons and Feeds Manager >>OpenBh Addons Plugins

I would ask you to use as much as possible
own API Keys to keep servers from blocking overuse.
Read earlier posts.

yes idont have open bh addons plugins in that menu

That's weird.
If you have the latest version of OpenBh 5.xxx with updates
and if you have an internet connection with the image.
Then you must have Plugins too.

Upgrade image
