Hope this doesn't sound snobby but, why wouldn't the MC360 team address the issue, since its their skin?

Going back to what Morpheus said: would it be possible to include a script from mygamercard.net instead then? As long as someone makes one obviously... Or would that just run into the same problems?

I put a request in the python scripting forum, so hopefully someone will sort it out. Its such a great feature of the skin, its a shame its not working.

You can find the thread here.

I'm sorry to bring this up again, but I was trying to edit the script for personal use earlier, but obviously it wouldn't work.  Now, I'm pretty much entirely new to scripting but I compared the script html recompile method to extract the info and it is the same - I can see no reason for the scraping not working.  Is it possibly that the script has been offset by any changes to XBMC rather than to Xbox.com?

Nice, I just put those new files in and it worked great.

Is that all that needed changed?  Just that 8 to a 7?  Ether way good show.
