It is possible that it is a problem with the format of the image or a corrupt image. but I can't locate the problem files. DO you get the list of trivia slides displayed if you enable debug mode?

giftie Wrote:Not at the moment... but is now in the development

you could add this line, after line number 115 in xbmcscript_trivia.py:

Code:

xbmc.log( "[script.cinema.experience] - Current Slide: %s" %, self.slide_playlist[ self.image_count ], level=xbmc.LOGDEBUG)

this should send the slide to be listed in the Debug log..

-A "staging" mode where it would just perpetually play trivia slides until some sort of keypress would send it along to the next step. It usually takes us a little bit to get ready to watch a movie what with getting kids settled and getting snacks and stuff. It would be nice if the script would just rotate trivia slides during this time while everyone gets ready and then I could press play or something and it would move to the next phase.

Quote:-Load trivia slides from a remote server. This could open the door for a trivia server which has slides from the most up to date movies. I'm not sure how much community support there is for something like that, but it allows you to get new content once in a while at least. This could possible be expanded to coming soon/feature presentation movie streaming as well.

Thanks for all the great work thus far. I'm really looking forward to getting some home automation lights set up so I can try out some of those features as well.

giftie Wrote:This is already how the script is set up.

You have the ability to set the slide show to last for up to an hour, depending on the number of slides you have. For instance, I have about 1500 slides, showing a slide every 10 seconds, those slides will last for around 2.5 hours. The script limits to 1 hour, as it is a pretty long time... Pressing the 'Back' button on the remote(varies from remote to remote) will stop the slide show, and continue on.. Since music is part of the slide show, transport keys(Play, Stop, Pause, Skip Back, Skip forward) are mapped to the music player.



This would be possible to program(not too difficult) but I don't see this sort of thing around(yet) The community is doing pretty good a creating new slides and I think Dark Scout is hosting them on his server(in pack form) available to all... I personally don't like to rely on streaming from the internet, though the world is definitely heading that way.
