giftie Wrote:Nope... I am at a loss in ways of working around it, anything I have tried seems to upset the flow..

If you want to add to the Trac ticket that I had started (debug logs, stack traces) feel free... Even if they tell me it's my fault(not sure how it can be).

ijourneaux Wrote:I religiously use HCE to watch movies and don't have problems with any of the intros (all of the intros are configured to play 1 random video) but I don't stream trailers. Is the problem associated with the intros or the fact that you are trying to stream the trailers?

giftie Wrote:The script has two methods to start it. Most skins allow you to start it from the info screen of the movie you want to watch. Aeon MQ3 and Transparency! have an option to engage the script from the home window. The second one actually triggers the script in Multiple Feature mode but if the script has the number of Feature Presentations(in the script's settings) set to 1, the script will function with just one movie. If this mode is being used, you need to Queue the movie to have the script 'start'.

giftie Wrote:It's a strange problem.. The streamed trailers will almost always fail if there is a local video played(via the playlist) I have heard that it will sometimes(less often) fail with no videos are played before. The error really seems to be inside of XBMC since the script does nothing different when it adds a streamed trailer verses a local trailer(except for all the extras needed for a streamed trailer) It's the same code that it always has been(since post Camelot) I honestly think it has always been flaky, since I remember using ATD(Apple Trailers Downloader) to get my trailers.

It always can be Apple messing things up, causing XBMC to get bad info(wouldn't put it past them )

Mine fails (as in, freezes XBMC completely) on all of my machines (Mac OS X Snow Leopard, Lion, and a Debian Linux "lenny" box) if I have music playing during the Trivia slideshow. The Trivia never comes up after it says "Building Playlist" and as I said, XBMC freezes up completely.

Unfortunately there is nothing useful in the log at the time this happens.

It would be great if it could play trailers for movies in your library via youtube and then continue to play new trailers from apple etc. The reason being is i have a pretty huge movie library and sometimes cant decide what to watch. If i were to see a trailer before a movie I would probably want to watch that movie... Just a thought. Keep up the good work.

Fizzle Wrote:I started using XBMC on a HTPC a couple of weeks ago and came over Cinema Experience last week.
I have a similar feature request as you for HCE, because I have a lot of movies as well...

So I started adapting HCE and implemented the feature that if you choose "XBMC Library" as your trailer source in HCE settings, you are able to select "Show Trailers of unwatched Movies", wich in fact get the trailer url of your movie records which aren't watched yet.
Still some testing to do, but it looks promising.

Quote:In the next couple of days I will try to extend it so that you can choose if you want to play trailers of unwatched, watched or all movies...

Quote:Next thing after that would be to select two or more different sources, so that you can tell HCE something like: I wanna get 2 trailers of newest Apple trailers and 1 trailer of my unwatched movies.
But till then it's a long way to go.

Quote:As I am a new member of the community, I'm not really familiar with doing some scripting on an already used add-on as HCE, and I don't want to offend the initial developer of HCE
So tell me if I'm doing something wrong.
