That's why I was rejoicing when it actually, finally worked. It's not hard code to implement if you have any skinning experience or know how to find the 1080i sub-folder in a skin folder and use Notepad++.

I see.

I'm on Aeon MQ6 so I might ask them to integrate the add-on if at all possible. It comes pre-installed with CE so I don't see why not.

The code is almost the same as CE so they should be able to integrate it pretty easy. Just direct them to the first post of this thread to find the code. It's like 30 seconds of tweaking the DialogVideoInfo.XML file.

And soooo easy to to get it up and running, download, enable, launch, WoW!


Question: The Audio Format Bumper is only playing 2.0 audio, I suppose it's because it's streaming a cvurl... I have a CE folder with actual audio files that I'm trying to point CV to but it won't pick up the entire folder, just individual files. What am I doing wrong?
Settings>audioformat>Method>File

That's correct. Any content streaming in from YouTube or most anywhere else will be in stereo, and not surround. If you download the audio format bumpers from the CinemaVIsion site, they are actually encoded in the correct audio format. You'll want to make sure your Audio Format Bumper Module is set to Autodetect, and make sure you put the correct bumpers that pertain to the formats in the %CVROOT%\Audio Format Bumpers\%FORMATNAME% folders. It will play a single bumper randomly from these folders.

I just want to say thank you again and bring up a possible bug report...
Been playing around with the new Beta and I no longer have MPAA ratings bumper like in the last beta. In the log it looks like the MPAA is being deciphered as language. It is in the log below around line 1536.

Code:

Rating (MPAA): language

If I have 2 dtsHD Living World audio bumpers, one 2D and the other 3D, in the same dtsHD directory what is CV reading to play the 2D for the 2D sequence and similar for the 3D sequence? This is where I am confused as CE used different 3D specified folders for 3D content.

(2015-09-05, 06:46)Dave the Minion Wrote: Also, just to throw another kink into the chain but, it's cool CV can be used with TV shows now. But we need to be able to save a sequence for TV that's different than the 2D and 3D ones by default.

Personally if watching Band of Brothers or Game of Thrones it would be cool to see the audio and THX bumpers but I don't want to run all the other bumpers and trailers and such.

More work for the dev, I know. I'm a bad Minion.

Thanks for the info, is the root folder in addon_data or addons? I think at some point you'll need to allow CV to read a folder outside of the root, with so many of using use a ext-hdd's for everything.

Let me know what you find!

(2015-09-05, 16:36)CinemaVision-Scott Wrote: TV functionality is only about half baked into the add-on. We'll be adding a TV Sequence to the list as well, so you can set that up differently than your standard 2D and 3D sequences. We've got a lot to work out before it's ready for use with TV as well.

Quote:The %CVROOT% folder is going to be the directory that you set the Content path configuration setting to. CinemaVision can already read everything that's added to Kodi as a source, so we should be good.

Hi Scott, I uninstalled .28 beta and installed the latest .30 beta. The problem still persisted, even when I tried other transitions and time adjustments. I then decided to move my content directory to the 16GB SD card of the RPi2 (everything was on an external drive previously shared over a wired Samba network). After moving everything to the SD card in the RPi2 the fade transitions are now smooth as expected. I'll run a few more test sequences and see if it the fade remains consistent. So far, so good.

(2015-09-05, 22:37)Dave the Minion Wrote: Again not sure how difficult these things are to add now that a lot of the groundwork has been done but couldn't a new default sequence by added to the config based on the container being a TV Show or episode? Might be a quicker fix than trying to overthink things. Just spit-balling here.

The ability to set-up a sequence, save it then go to another Kodi installation and easily recall the sequence is awesome. Getting CV to use local/shared folders will make that process even more awesome and simple as well. I do have another question though. Will CV forever only recognize the default directories in the user defined CV root folder or will it one day be able to access all custom folders and sub-folders contained within extending the default list and functions?

I think that is the reason for what is happening but just in case, to answer your question above, I have English set as my language and use Universal Movie Scraper.

I downloaded the MPAA Classic Ratings, and paste them here

Code:

C:\CinemaVision\Ratings Bumpers\MPAA

However, they aren't playing before the movie.
I'm playing Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back, which has a PG rating.

How are you using the IOS app to launch your movies? Are you selecting a play button on the app or are you using the app as a remote to move the selector on screen around within the Kodi skin to pick the Play or Cinema Experience buttons built into the skin?

As mentioned adding the CV code to a skin is almost as easy as adding the CE code to the point the skin dev can copy the CE button code and just paste in 1 or 2 different lines. You can even have both CE and CV as options in 1 skin (but at this point CV does almost everything CV did and TONS more). Head into the skin thread and post a link to the first post of this thread for the dev's to integrate.

If you are using the app on an IOS or Android device to launch CE from within the app itself that's up to the app devs to work out. You'd have to get in touch with them.

(2015-09-06, 12:50)coyote82 Wrote: My idea is to go the easier way. No one will use CE and CV because there's no need. There for my idea was to use the already existing code to start CV which means only to change the right lines in the CV script so that Kodi and IOS app is thinking nothing has changed and it's still CE. Because it will take a long time until app developer etc. will add the new script...

(2015-09-06, 14:02)wpbpete Wrote: Yes! Thank you.. I set up ContentPath on the ext-hdd and it works great

I added all my old trivia slides, how far will CV scan recursively? ie: foldername>foldercontent>Indexedcontent>content

Also how do I get it to randomly choose from more slides folders? Right now it's only choosing slides from ~3 of them.

Are seasons supported as well (currently you have listed Container.Content(Movies) | Container.Content(TVShows) | Container.Content(Episodes))?

Hey Gade! That's so formal, call me Scott, or Ragnarok. Thanks for adding us! Seasons are not currently on the roadmap, and I'll tell you why. Our vision of how the TV piece of CinemaVision will work is to split up a number of episodes with intermissions, commercials and whatever you want. We didn't figure people would sit through an entire season with no breaks. Maybe that's something we add down the line, who knows!
