# Notes:
#
#       This plugin allows you to call an arbitrary system command
# before playing video. I use it to adjust the brightness/contrast on
# my G400 using the hardware, which provides a good quality video display,
# but I prefer to have a darker menu because it's not the "focus" when
# not playing video.

    This plugin allows you to run an arbitrary command before playing
    a video file. I use this because I prefer to adjust brightness/contrast
    in hardware before playing a video file.

    activate with plugin.activate('plugin.autocolor')

    Yes, I spelled it the American way. No, I'm not American.
