I would like to add some tivo decoding functionality to plex so I checked out the python script tutorial here: [http://xbmc.org/wiki/?title=Building\_Scripts](http://xbmc.org/wiki/?title=Building_Scripts) But I really don’t want to have to learn python to do it. I know c++ well and I was wondering if there is a tutorial or if it is even possible to add functionality to plex using c++. thanks ding ---

I guess if there is no other way I can always use boost.python to interface with plex but I would much rather avoid this. [http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1\_35\_0/libs/…/doc/index.html](http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_35_0/libs/python/doc/index.html) ding ---
