Here's an example (starts at the last image first in album, and as you go through the list it will always start at poster1):

The fanart now pans side-to-side over 12 seconds, and the poster changes every 6 seconds.

To use it, for now you must download and install these two modified addons: skin.helper.service and script.module.metadatautils

Then for the extra posters, place them like "poster1.jpg, poster2.jpg," in an extraposter folder in the movie folder. I also have an emby patch I'll upload shortly for users on emby.

Why you don't use a folder called "extraposters" for this? File names like poster1.jpg are bad if you use <filename>-poster.jpg, <filename>-fanart.jpg and so on in all movie folders. Also what happens if a "poster#.jpg" between two other poster#.jpg has been deleted? Can your script handle poster1.jpg, poster3,jpg, poster4.jpg?

IMHO an "extraposters" directory is the better solution. With an extra folder it's also possible to save the posters with file names that has been used on image provider, like flotRsFGZEo0THVOacXdHHr7jOn.jpg. In our media manager we can use that file names to compare if an image has already been saved as extra image while rescraping a movie.

This implementation is the exact same as with extrafanart, just "extrafanart" has been replaced with "extraposter," and "fanart" with "poster"

One last question: you've wrote "place them like "poster1.jpg, poster2.jpg"". For extrafanarts it's not important how the files are named. Is it also not important for extraposters?

Looking at the code for the PR it looks like it replicates the extrafanart code and basically just replaces the name extrafanart with extraposter, so it shouldn't matter what they are named.

What a fluke, when DJH first explained his use of keyart being placed in folders for Aeon (2017) I started creating "extraPosters" folders without really understanding or knowing how this feature was going to be implemented by him. Its easy enough for me to bulk edit the name of the folder to remove the 's' by script so it complies with the addon.

Thanks

This repo also includes current colorbox, and extraposter patched metadatautils and skin.helper.service.


Edit: just pushed v0.1.1 which fixes latest colorbox, and updated repo.
