RE: CinemaVision Add-on: Create a Movie Theater Experience at Home - aptalca - 2015-11-08 Hi Scott, I can't get the slides.xml files to work. I have quite a few slides packs that I acquired over the years and they all use different naming schemes. I had slides.xml's that fit each in their respective folders and they worked in cinema experience. But cinema vision does not seem to accept anything I tried and treats all question and answer slides as individual slides. For instance I have a pack with naming scheme CokeCount1a.jpg for questions and CokeCount1b.jpg as the answer. My xml has the following: Code: <slides> What is a correct format for the xml? Thanks RE: CinemaVision Add-on: Create a Movie Theater Experience at Home - NewMedia - 2015-11-08 (2015-11-08, 00:08)wints Wrote: Hi I had the same problem but was using emby for kodi addon and needed to do a fresh re-scrape of my data base don't know if it's something similar for you Thanks for the suggestion, unfortunately it did not work for me.

RE: CinemaVision Add-on: Create a Movie Theater Experience at Home - mysteron09 - 2015-11-08 Pro tip - I've found that video bumpers set to an arbitrary directory to play say a cartoon or short are a bit wonky. This isn't a problem (at least for people running Macs or Linux) - merely create a file alias and move the alias(es) into the CinemaVision video bumpers directory for short films. RE: CinemaVision Add-on: Create a Movie Theater Experience at Home - moravec - 2015-11-09 Hello, does anybody have a source for cool countdown intros? RE: CinemaVision Add-on: Create a Movie Theater Experience at Home - mstang1988 - 2015-11-09 My main feature fails to play. I'm using "ace" skin modified to work with cinema vision instead of Cinema Exerperience. I click "info" then "cinema ex" (with the path to the Cinema Vision script). http://pastebin.com/nf1XSfck Audio trailers work fine as do previews. I did remove old parts of the log as it had login credentials that I didn't want on pastebin. What's posted should be sufficient.

I use the advanced launcher with confluence skin. My sequence is very simple : one random audio bumper, one trailer , one countdown. Hey there! XBMCLogs doesn't seem to think your log exists. Can you post it up again for us? (2015-11-07, 09:38)kemuri Wrote: OK, here's my experience. On my laptop - with the setup described by Scott - everything works fine. Both trailer and audio bumper intro plays as it has to. Now rPi model B 512: same setup, CV folder path on SD card = only trailer, no audio bumper intro. Tried to change CV content path to smb location = same. No intro, only trailer. I have the files copied to correct folders, as i mentioned with my laptop works great. Any suggestions? Thank you! Weird, but I'm glad it's working now. (2015-11-07, 13:30)sl4ppy Wrote: I installed and did the initial setup of directories, etc, but get the following error when I try to launch. I have uninstalled and re-installed CinemaVision several times. :/ We're going to add some error logging to the next point release. When you see CinemaVision update to 1.0.2, can I get a full log from you with debug logging turned on in the CinemaVision add-on configuration? This is pretty helpful, but we want to be sure we have everything we could possibly need to fix the error. (2015-11-08, 00:00)NewMedia Wrote: This is a great add on! I have not been able to touch my theater system and Kodi in a while (work) but good to see all these new developments happening. The custom modules are good and have been designed well. The skin I use has integrated CV so I have just set everything up and it works perfectly, except that the movie does not play after the sequence is finished, just returns back to the normal screen. I feel like I am missing the blatantly obvious here but not sure what exactly it is, but does anyone have an idea as to why it does not play automatically after the sequence is finished? Hey, thanks! We're pretty proud of it. Can I get a log from you with debug logging turned on in the CinemaVision add-on configuration? It may also help if you post up your sequence file so we can see what's up. I have a suspicion, but want to be sure before I send you on a wild goose chase. (2015-11-08, 02:13)leejk Wrote: Hi, is there a setting in that skin to enable the pop up suppression? I still see the brief pop up in between loading movie trailers, and also the occasional culyrics pop up. I'm not sure the pop-up suppression was added. That's relatively new. The instructions to do it are on the first page of this thread. You'll want to be sure to only suppress pop-ups while CinemaVision is active. I'll reach out to Marcos and see if it's in there, and lobby to add it if it's not. (2015-11-08, 03:25)dchabby Wrote: I may have missed something simple but I installed the addon and it worked fine in demo mode but once I added the content path in nothing works other than playing 2 trailers. Make sure you have updated content so that CinemaVision catalogs all of the content you have stored. There's an option in the CinemaVision add-on configuration, and you can set it to auto-update every time you launch the sequence editor as well. When we develop and release the CinemaVision Service Add-on, the plan is to have content auto-update without any user interaction if you want it to.

The instructions to do that are under the CONFIGURATION heading in this post. We've seen Kodi do some weird things when that's not done, including what you're seeing here. As for the file that doesn't exist, make sure you've updated your CinemaVision content so it removes files that don't exist anymore, and adds new files. You'll want to do this any time you add or remove content from the CinemaVision content directories. We have plans to make that automatic, but we're not there just yet. Personally, I'm not sure how OpenELEC works, but there is an option to reset the CinemaVision database in the CinemaVision add-on configuration. I don't think you need to go that far. I think a content update will fix the issue. Let me know how it goes. (2015-11-08, 08:52)aptalca Wrote: Hi Scott, You'll find the default format for the XML file at the bottom of this post on the first page. From the look of your XML file, it might be easier for you to do a batch rename of the files. For example, replace c.jpg with _c.jpg. If you're running Windows, here's a nifty PowerShell script that I use to rename strings in file names that will help you automate the process: Code: Dir | To use the above, create a text file and change the extension to PS1 instead of TXT. Copy the PowerShell script into the directory you want to process, change the variables to match what you want to replace, and then execute the script.

If you think it's a bug, enable debug logging and shoot us a log of you updating content with everything in the proper place. I'm curious what you're seeing.

When you see 1.0.2 download, send us a log file with debug logging enabled in the CinemaVision add-on settings so that we can review it.

I hope it will be ok this time. That worked, thanks! So it doesn't look like CinemaVision sees the feature you're trying to play. Is this for a movie scraped locally into your Kodi library, or something from a streaming source? Here's what I see in the log: Code: FEATURE [ 'Feature Stub' ]: CinemaVision will only play the Feature Stub when there is no feature passed into the add-on. We currently don't have a way to support streaming content, because we rely too heavily on the information from the Kodi database to put together the sequence. If this is for a movie that's scraped locally into your Kodi database, try playing it normally via Kodi, then try playing it with CinemaVision then posting a debug log. I'd be curious what's failing here, because the add-on seems to be functioning normally. (2015-11-09, 22:02)NewMedia Wrote: I have posted the log > http://pastebin.com/6UfSBqJQ Thanks for that! Was the feature you were trying to watch American Sniper? In looking through your sequence, I don't see a Feature module. Do you have one in your sequence? If not, add that and you should be good. If so - that's not supposed to happen.

I believed, it was not necessary if you want to play the movie at the end of the sequence. I added a feature and now everything is ok. Thank you for your help, and for your very good addon. RE: CinemaVision Add-on: Create a Movie Theater Experience at Home - thekow - 2015-11-10 Quick Question. With Aeon mq6 released they "support" cinema vision in the skin. Although when you click the movie and choose cinema vision, the output of cinema vision says there is no features to play. So do i need to modify the skin or plugin to get this to work.
