Great you like the update

Confluence has a setting (not default) to play trailers in a window when in the movie information window. Is that what you mean?

Do you only play trailers using the movie information window or do you use the context menu in the library?

I could easily add something like that.

I use both ways so both would be appreciated. No hurry if you do decide to work this in to Rapier...

I have made the option as a skin setting in Media -> Videos.

It is only available in the movie information window, as it would not work properly in the library ans require too much work to implement.

Please let me know what you think by installing this manual update of Rapier.

Thanks for the fast reply
would've never found it...

Set the skin widget ... and yes it works
Thanks also for the hint concerning update the service each time you enter the home screen
That would have been my next question :-)

This takes up to 70 seconds after a fresh KODI Start !!

mine gets only refreshed directly after watching a movie / series, which is kind of senseless...
lets say I start a movie in the Livingroom, Stop it an and want to resume on a different Client / Notebook, but don't have the Info about watch state already populated

Right now I find it under Movies > Top MenuBar > Settings Icon > Update Library
Would be great to have it as Sub Menu button under Programs or Videos

Quote:That depends on the system, network, hardware etc. I think 70 seconds sounds like far too long.

On my media center (with direct access to the video files) it takes max 5 seconds, on my laptop and iPad (with network access to the video files) it takes under 8 seconds.

Quote:Don't know the details behind the code of the service.skin.widgets add-on.

I find the function to update the widget when an item is watched very useful. When watching tv show episodes, I can do that almost entirely from the home screen. All my in progress episodes are available and when I finish an episode, the next one is instantly available in the widget.

You might be right that it's not as useful for movies, but there's not much for me to do about that.

Quote:Rapier is highly customizable. You can add every function as a custom category menu or submenu. You can replace every submenu with your own for hardcoded categories.

So adding the library update function to the home screen is very easy - using presets.

You can read the wiki for guides and a detailed skin settings description.

Hmmm guess I have to look into that,
Running on Zotac CI520 (PXE Network boot), Files on NFS mounted NAS, MYSQL DB also on NAS, 100 Mbit LAN --- Hmmm

Yes your absolutley right when watching episodes on one mediacenter, But my usecase is more like starting on one client, stoping and resuming on a different client... And for that a continuous population of watch state via the media DB would be perfect

As a german native speaker

In the Infopanel Musik I would use GEHÖRTE instead of GESEHENE

and instead of IM BEARBEITUNG (movies and tv-shows) i would use
LAUFENDE EPISODEN and LAUFENDE FILME (meaning running episodes/movies)
Some Skins are using EMPFOHLEN (recomended) --> but for me this also dosent sound right :-)
