Hmm, not quite as seamless as it initially seemed. A nice mod but I think I'll wait until XBMC has that vital PlayWindowedMedia(ListItem.Trailer) function before taking it on. Unless you can already do that and I've missed something, of course.
Yeah, basically when you wanna watch the real movie, you have to press tab.
This mod was created with the xbmc noobs in mind. I always have guests come to my house and they keep asking me what's the movie about, can we see preview, etc. This basically gives them all that without them bugging me. And with kiosk mode on, it's perfect.

you need to put this in advancedsettings.xml
Code:
<fullscreenonmoviestart>false</fullscreenonmoviestart>
Quote:Also, just because i feel like playing, which version did you take Viewtype_Multiplex from? ie how long ago. I just want to see a diff.
I just updated the files using the latest ones from github.
Quote:Thanks very nice but where's advancedsettings.xml?
go to AppData\Roaming\XBMC\userdata make a text file name it to advancedsettings.xml, then in it put this
Code:
<advancedsettings>
<video>
<fullscreenonmoviestart>false</fullscreenonmoviestart>
</video>
</advancedsettings>
Quote:where to I place be images, and what's the naming scheme?
For this mod, you put the images in your movie folder and the images can be any name. The movie fanart and movie poster are also used in the slideshow so it will cycles between those if you don't have extra images.
