- Nuka1195 - 2009-12-30 just you - timdog82001 - 2009-12-30 question...if we don't include a slides.xml file in a folder, will the script assume that all slides contained within are G rated? - kiliksun - 2009-12-30 Nuka1195 Wrote:just you read your earlier comment, problem fixed. thanks laziness kills. - Juanflaco - 2009-12-30 timdog82001 Wrote:question...if we don't include a slides.xml file in a folder, will the script assume that all slides contained within are G rated?Nuka can clarify, but my experience has been that slides in a folder with no slides.xml are played without consideration of rating, and are mixed into the slideshow randomly. I did a little testing this afternoon and am really pleased with how the slideshow is functioning. I have several folders of still slides (with no slides.xml) and nearly a dozen folders of Q&A slides, each of these folders having their own slides.xml specifying the rating and the naming convention for slides within that folder. I haven't tested the rating functionality, but I can confirm that for me the Q&A slides are always appearing properly paired, and I'm seeing random single slides mixed in exactly as I had hoped. For now I've set rating="N/A" in all my slides.xml, which seemed to require a value. The rating will be really handy for the kids to ensure they receive trivia questions they'd find interesting and would be able to answer - but I'll still need to exclude inappropriate single slides. Since I have all subfolders named by theme it will be easy enough to move the inappropriate single slides out of the trivia path. Here's a mockup of my folder structure for those unsure how to organize and mix Q&A pairs with still slides... - mccorkled - 2009-12-30 sweet. thanks for that image. that helps me a lot - Nuka1195 - 2009-12-30 kiliksun, good. i will up a fix shortly juanflaco, sounds right. no slides.xml, folder is included. if no rating in slides.xml folder is included. you can place a slides.xml in a root folder with a rating, so it could be used to exclude/include a whole set of folders.(untested) still_slides ----adult_trivia ----slides.xml (rating = NC-17) ---------Slasher_movie_trivia ---------War_movie_trivia the above, the slides.xml with a rivia_rating of PG would exclude slaher and war. at least it's suppose to. - Nuka1195 - 2009-12-30 Quote: there is a bug in xbmc for plugin settings, you can't reset paths to default. so if it causes issues having dolby/dts folder set. you will need to delete your settings.xml in userdata. - Juanflaco - 2009-12-30 Nuka1195 Wrote:kiliksun, good. i will up a fix shortlyThanks, that makes sense. It didn't occur to me to use slides.XML with N/A for question, clue, and answer to filter single slides by rating. Will try it out! - Nuka1195 - 2009-12-30 if the slides.xml is going in the folder with the slides. you may need a question regex like "\.jpg" or something that matches all slides - stoli - 2009-12-30 Thanks for the 1.5.1b update Nuka, works perfect again! - v0lrath - 2009-12-31 1.5.1b is solid. Are the ratins videos supposed to work yet? They don't for me. - Nuka1195 - 2009-12-31 yes, they work here. what are your ratings in the db - TheDoughboy - 2009-12-31 WOO HOO! This is exactly what I wanted for XBMC. I tested it out last night and it brought me back to my younger years. THANK YOU! - ijourneaux - 2009-12-31 I just installed the update. for some reason, when I launch the scrpit frpm the Transparency skin, it plays the number of trailers I have configred, then my MOvie intro but instead of playing the movie I have slected, it plays the movie listed immediately after the movie I selected. Do I have an error in my script configuration? - ijourneaux - 2009-12-31 I am not sure I understand how to take advantage of the Dolby/DTS folder. Do you just copy a video to that folder that plays in the movie is in Dolby/DTS. Take care |
