thanks for pointing that out.

1. I could have missed the candy stand video.
2. I will look into the aspect ratio thing. I noticed it look a bit funny when playing in XBMC but in WMP it worked fine.

Here is the new upload. The Divx codec was setting the output to 16:9 and DVDx was also setting the output to 16:9 which is why it was (2):16:9

Thanks. =)

Just tested WMP, and that was OK as you said. But in MPC-HC, it was not.

More info in first post? - Shuey - 2009-12-20

I've done some searching in the forums for threads relating to the "home theater experience" script and if I'm not mistaken, this is the main thread, right?

One thing I was wondering is if it would be too much to ask to have some pics/info on what this script does (posted into the first thread) so it's easier for everyone to have a solid idea of what this script not only does, but looks like too?

I haven't even tried this yet, but I can't wait to; this seems like it's gonna be hot!


- Nuka1195 - 2009-12-20

shuey, thanks for your kind words,

as soon as i finish the newest features and fixes. i'll upload something, maybe even one of those web videos? i don't know. kinda hard to put this in pictures.


- Nuka1195 - 2009-12-20

soder doesn't happen here, but if it did, it might be an xbmc issue. or else i've already changed something. i don't know.


- v0lrath - 2009-12-20

I don't know if this would be incredibly difficult or not, but it would be very cool if this script could play videos from either a "DTS" or "Dolby" folder based on the type of audio in the movie. I guess the first step is getting the movie to play after the trailers, etc. without fiddling with code in the skin, eh?

In any case, GREAT JOB, I love the script and I will still love it without the Dolby/DTS/etc feature. Smile


- Nuka1195 - 2009-12-20

if it's in the database then possibly, like it can play a rating video based on rating.

i really need someone to organize all these requests so i don't miss any.

most sound reasonable and i'll see what i can do.

yes mccorckled, even yours Smile


- mccorkled - 2009-12-21

Requests:

Nuka-
1. 5 minute option to trivia.
2. check m3u playlist support (may be xbmc issue with queuing a playlist)
3. run script before videos start (homeseer)
4. random trivia, mix in single slides (you MUST still keep your different slide types in separate folders) i have an idea and if it works it shouldn't be difficult.
5. mark trivia slides watched, like trailers and add a clear watched trivia setting

mccorkled- I request the plugin to play things in this order
1. trivia (images)
2. old school drive in adds (video clips) 1 to 5 random clips
3. coming attractions (video clip/image)
4. random trailers (apple plugin)
5. feature presentation intro (video clip/image)
6. movie
7. Intermission video or more trivia (optional if you want to watch 2 features)
8. movie (optional if you want to watch 2 features)
9. outro (video/image)

I plan on building a media server sometime in the future and it would be great if the script can pull movies and stuff off of a server instead of only a local drive. Maybe it already can, IDK. Im just speculating.

IsleOfMan- Requests this order.
1.) 5-10min Trivia
2a.) "Coming Attractions" intro
2b.) 2-3 Random Apple trailers
3.) Random lobby/snack video
4.) Random Cartoon Short
5.) Random "Popular Science" Newsreel
6.) "Feature Presentation" intro
7.) Selected Movie

v0lrath-
"it would be very cool if this script could play videos from either a "DTS" or "Dolby" folder based on the type of audio in the movie."

mccorkled says: "This would be a cool thing to have. I saw thing Dolby video where the logo was busting through a wall. There is a cd over on the AVS forum much like the coke slides. This CD is full of sound clips and sentences recorded by a guy with a deep voice like the movie announcer guy. One of the voice overs says..."DAMN that was loud!" I think that would be cool to play along side the Dolby or DTS video.

Nuka-
"like it can play a rating video based on rating."

That would be cool if it could show the movie rating before the movie starts, from G to Nc17. Im not 100% certain but those tags are stored in the movie? or the nfo?

These are all the ones I could find. Sorry if I missed any!

about the rating, yes it can if your movie is rated. i tried making some videos that i would share but adobe premier and i don't get along.


- apex82 - 2009-12-21

videos? wouldnt jpegs be easier? I dont thing videos are necessary for this type of thing. I will look around today for rating screens. If I cant find any, Ill make some.

mccorkled Wrote:It already does this. look at the script options.

Does it?

I only find an option to first play 1 file/playlist or some files random from a folder. Or an option to play something AFTER the movie?
