Hi, Eden does not seam to have the Apple Trailers Addon. Which add-on should I use with this one?

Cheers,

Nuno

So please do post a debug log to pastebin(or the like)

Here ya go.

XBMC is hanging when the trailers are being downloaded(and possibly when the HomeAutomation.py script is being triggered) I have managed to capture data for XBMC developers regarding this(post on Trac)

Thanks for the log.

For some reason I am unable to use any intros or audio video, if I do the movie doesn't play after , If just stream some trailers then the movie plays ok

That's using the DSPlayer /xbmc build. (Eden 2)

Here is my Debug log would appreciate it if some one who understand these thing could have a look


Thanks

When the DSPlayer is being used for playback(first time it is used is for the Feature Presentation video, the trailer uses the DVDPlayer that is built in to XBMC) XBMC receives a onStop command which causes the script to think that the Player has stopped playing then it will and complete the ending of the script(clearing the playlists ending the script) I have found a similar problem when the YouTube plugin is used as a trailer player(since it is not a 'video player' it also 'stops' video playback) I have few other issues that I am working out, and there are some changes that may help this out(a longer delay between the script testing for Video playback and believing the video play list has stopped)

It will be a little while before I can post and updated version.

Just to confirm that I too can only get latest CE to work with Eden Beta if i disable Tv-Tunes and TV-Next Aired. (using BackRow SVN).

Does anyone know if a fix to this incompatibility is in the works?

Also for me there is one longstanding surprisingly rough edge in this script which is all about slick presentation:
-The way then next movie in the list is displayed during the brief period when the CE playlist is loading.

Would be awesome if there were a way to keep the movie you are about to watch highlighted in XBMC until the playlist starts, instead of the current behaviour of scrolling onto the next one.

Anyway - thanks again for this amazing script - just got reunited withit after upgrading to Eden and it's so good to have it back Smile

Debug logs are needed otherwise I am just guessing. Also this can be a bug in XBMC.

This is XBMC's design(not the script) This is because the movie needs to be queued into a playlist for the script to be able to pull the information from XBMC. XBMC automatically moves to the next movie on the list.

hi, for some time i have problems with the cinema experience script.

i select the script button in the information menu of a movie then the script starts correct with the cinema intro, the the local stored trailers, the feature presentation and the countdown.
What is not played is the Audio Format Video and the feature movie

In the log i see errors but i can't say what to do to solve this
Here is the log

would be great if you can help me

PS:
I use Transparency! 4.04 Skin and XBMC (11.0-BETA2)

You will need to post a complete debug log(XBMC needs to be in debug mode) to PasteBin

Mine fails (as in, freezes XBMC completely) on all of my machines (Mac OS X Snow Leopard, Lion, and a Debian Linux "lenny" box) if I have music playing during the Trivia slideshow. The Trivia never comes up after it says "Building Playlist" and as I said, XBMC freezes up completely.

Unfortunately there is nothing useful in the log at the time this happens.

Download and install the zip (Eden Version) from the first page. The version you are trying to use(1.0.46) is not Eden compatible.

Is that movie available in you Library? XBMC is not returning the Library Details that the script requires to assemble the playlist.

Please post a debug log to PasteBin. Also be sure you are using the Eden version that is available on the first page.
