title: How can I run an XBMC/Kodi video-plugin in python script?
body: <p>I am trying to develop an XBMC/Kodi addon and my goal is run script and plugins from python script. There are buttons in addon.py when you pushed them, the addon that specified will run. I achieved this for picture and game add-on. Like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>if control == self.button1:
    xbmc.executebuiltin("RunScript(script.game)")
  if control == self.button2:
    xbmc.executebuiltin("RunScript(script.picture)")
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I tried this way to call video plugin, but give me some error message. When I searched this problem, I found this:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>"Do not try to run Plugins files from the scripts window as that will only give you a weird error message"</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>Is there an another way to call a video plugin from python script or can we a write a video-script instead of plugin?</p>
