including how positive everyone is about their experiences with this add-on.

I'm too busy building my HT to be able to provide any feedback, or any issues with this program because I haven't had time to fix my dedicated HTPC
which will use this incredible add on! Tonight I will be installing the restore DVDs for my HP Desktop HTPC and once I get that up and running by the weekend, I will definitely
be immediately installing CinemaVision and will post lots of details.

Thanks CinemaVision-Scott for taking up the reigns by creating the idea and management everything. Even if you are not explicitly the one coding this awesome Kodi Add-on,
you still took the time and creativity to hire a developer and project manage the whole thing as well as acting as a liaison between us end users and the developers!
The tasks are herculean!

I have a beamer for example, and everytime it skips from a trailer to a one of my Feature intros , it does a Refresh , and te screen remains dark for a few secs , and you miss half of the Intro for example.

Cinema Experience had that in the latest version.

Thanks in advance , great stuff though !!!

Yep, just insert a cvaction file at the very beginning of the sequence to turn it off, then insert a cvaction file just before the feature to turn it back on. To turn it off, create a file called "adjustrefreshrate_off.cvaction" with the following code (you'll need to use the IP of your device):

Code:

# Turn off refresh rate sync
http://127.0.0.1:80/jsonrpc
{"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "Settings.SetSettingValue", "params": {"setting": "videoplayer.adjustrefreshrate", "value": 0}, "id": 1}

To turn it on, create a file called "adjustrefreshrate_on.cvaction" with the following code (and with your own IP):

Code:

# Turn on refresh rate sync
http://127.0.0.1:80/jsonrpc
{"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "Settings.SetSettingValue", "params": {"setting": "videoplayer.adjustrefreshrate", "value": 2}, "id": 1}

The 2D sequence seems to work well except for 1 thing. CV it updating local trailers with an OSD every time it runs. This, of course, isn't very cinematic.

The 3D sequence does not work as I think it's supposed to unless what I think is incorrect. I've made a different sequence for 3D from 2D and changed the 3D tags so CV knows it's about to play a 3D movie. The sequence doesn't play the designed 3D sequence. Instead it plays the trivia (as it should) then skips to the first common bumper "where 3D exists" and plays it, then a few of the modules in the 2D sequence which are not included in the 3D sequence. Then it gets to the audio bumpers where 3D videos do exist and plays those before starting the movie. Should it not be playing the 3D specified sequence for a 3D movie?

Also, is there a way to limit or include/exclude local trailers based on 3D tags yet? I don't want a 3D library trailer to play in the 2D sequence and I would like to add them to the 3D sequence but only show 3D trailers from the Kodi library.

One other thing I've noticed is when you run CV for a movie then back out from the movies list to the main menu you have to "back out" from the appdata/kodi/playlists/video menu. Why is that? Video Extras add-on does the same thing and it's pretty annoying when you should just jump right to the main menu.

I installed 0.43 and did not pay attention , so it downloaded trivia's etc...

after that , i changed the path ,and i wanted to download the trivia's and the other stuff again , but it doesn't let me do that.

I don't know if it's a bug or if i'm missing something .

Thanks

If you want to add an Action File , you can only choose it from a local drive (Home Folder or Root Filesystem)

I would like however to choose it from my NAS, as i have all my Cinemavision stuff on there.

It is as a source in Kodi.

if adding for example a Video Bumper or so , it connects to the NAS, but not if i want to add an Action Script.

So Actions you have in your sequence, when they are run from a NAS, are not executing? Can I get a log from you, and your Action file(s)?

My movies are on a NAS using homeplugs, & CV now works well.

My other tip, would be, to just add one action, test it, then add others

Sorry if I have misunderstood.
