OpenSubtitle path correction about xbmc-addons HOT 10 CLOSED

Correction, T: should translate to xbmc.translatePath( "special://temp" ), see

http://xbmc.org/jmarshall/2009/02/10/changes-to-paths-what-it-means-for-scripts-
and-
plugins/

yes sry you are right about temp dir. But "xbmc.translatePath" not working. 
Using
"os.path.join" enough.

BASE_DATA_PATH = os.path.join( "special://temp", "script_data", __scriptname__ )
BASE_SETTINGS_PATH = os.path.join( "special://profile", "script_data", 
__scriptname__ )

Dear all,

After changing the path's I still get the following errors (in the 19778 
Windows 
Built of XBMC):

I have added the xbmc.translatePath and it works ok:

BASE_DATA_PATH = xbmc.translatePath( os.path.join( "special://temp", 
"script_data", 
__scriptname__ ) )
BASE_SETTINGS_PATH = xbmc.translatePath( os.path.join( "special://profile", 
"script_data", __scriptname__ ) )

I am no coder, so not sure what would be the permanent fix, as the 
xbmc.translatePath
() might disappear...

Regards,

Nika.
