[Tutor] Please Help with Python Script for Xbox Media Center

[Rodney Butler]

I have written a script that is designed to load when you start your xbox, 
it gets a list of your music playlists then lets you select which one to 
load, shuffle and play, then the script exits.  What I need is for the 
script to automatically select the highlighted playlist if there is no user 
input for 10 seconds.  Been working on it for 3 days, no luck.  Help.

import os, xbmc, xbmcgui, time
try: Emulating = xbmcgui.Emulating
except: Emulating = False
#get actioncodes from keymap.xml
ACTION_PREVIOUS_MENU = 10
class MyClass(xbmcgui.Window):
        def __init__(self):
               if Emulating: xbmcgui.Window.__init__(self)
		self.addControl(xbmcgui.ControlImage(0,0,720,480, 
"c:\\scripts\\background.jpg"))

                # Make the List
                self.list = xbmcgui.ControlList(290, 300, 150, 150)
                self.addControl(self.list)
                #Define Playlist Directory here
                path = 'c:\\albums\\playlists\\'
                list = os.listdir(path)
                intcount = len(list)
                for a in list :
                        self.list.addItem(a)
                self.setFocus(self.list)
       def onAction(self, action):
                if action == ACTION_PREVIOUS_MENU:
                        self.close()
        def onControl(self, control):
                if control == self.list:
                        item = self.list.getSelectedItem()
                        path1 = 'c:\\albums\\playlists\\'
                        xbmc.PlayList(0).load(path1+item.getLabel())
                        xbmc.PlayList(0).shuffle()
                                        xbmc.Player().play()
                        self.close()
mydisplay = MyClass()
mydisplay.doModal()
del mydisplay
