@rshicks, thanks for the continued work. I'm a fan of 'clean' posters just prefer them to all the credits info and everything else. Would you consider creating a *clean* entry for films? I guess the clean poster could just be another number in the posters available for a movie but just wondered if you've considered having a specific entry for clean posters?

Do you mean a poster like this?
Does it need to be a new entry? Or is an additional "clean" attribute for each poster/background also ok? Like:
RE: Animated Movie Posters - Mike_Doc - 2016-03-23
Almost like that, the same but with just the films title on it and nothing else. Yes I think the clean attribute might work and then perhaps via json we could only query for 'clean' posters or check for them first? thinking something like that?

Ok, I get what you mean.
Browsing very fast through all animated posters I now have, I think 30-40% will match that criteria.
I can add a clean attribute (like in the screenshot of the previous post) to all posters and it will contain 1 (= clean) or 0 (= not clean).
Will that be sufficient?
RE: Animated Movie Posters - Skank - 2016-03-23
We still have to do this all manually? Or is there a central db?

All the data is in a central database. See post #352 (http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=215727&pid=2262254#pid2262254)
If you mean if there's no website to enter data you are correct.

I have added over 170 animated covers and 280 backgrounds from movies to it (and more be added. I still have around 200 on my HD to process). Every animated gif is renamed to it's imdb number (themoviedb.org number is also available). The original as an resized version is available.
Since I only use it in the app, the database is in json format. You can find it at this location: http://www.consiliumb.com/animatedgifs/movies.json
An entry looks like this:
You can construct the url to the image using the baseURL (http://www.consiliumb.com/animatedgifs) and the image name:
An example (resized version):
Code:http://www.consiliumb.com/animatedgifs/tt1074638_poster_0.gif
An example (original version):
Code:http://www.consiliumb.com/animatedgifs/tt1074638_poster_0_original.gif
I could upload a .zip file but it will be around 1.2 GB in size. Quite a lot to download.
I have downloaded those gifs from everywhere. If data is incorrect or you are the creator, just leave me a message and I will correct it.
If you have an addition, please let me know.
I hope I can make some people happy, there are really a lot of cool animated gifs made!
Good job.
A video tutorial will be very helpful.
a video tutorial would still be welcome
RE: Animated Movie Posters - rschiks - 2016-03-23
Ah, I see what you mean. My answer to that was a few posts later.
In the mean time this will have to do. Personally I am already busy with quite some things. Creating a website next to all that is to much for me right now. If someone is willing to help, please say so. As mentioned in the answer, I can provide a domain and space.

I personally don't think this is the way to go. This weekend I will add another 150 backgrounds. The database will grow very fast. First searching in a json file, construct a link and then download it. Not very user friendly.
I think a website is much better :-)
You can then search for a movie, see the animated gifs and if there's an API to talk to, it will be a lot easier for apps.
Something the TheLogoDB.com. That would be perfect!
I have no idea if there's someone who could help with that.
A domain name and hosting space I can take care of.
RE: Animated Movie Posters - _Andy_ - 2016-03-23
There is no need for a video tutorial. I would say the database is for devs only not for 'regular' users. If you want to access the gifs you need to decode the json database and build the URL. So you need coding skills or you
download the database text file and you have to decode the text file manually. The text file is huge and for human eyes not easy to decode.
The skin Aeon Madnox have the ability to access this database with a skin helper. So if you use Aeon Madnox a regular user can use the gifs.
RE: Animated Movie Posters - Skank - 2016-03-23
mmm sorry out of my terrain
RE: Animated Movie Posters - _Andy_ - 2016-03-23
If you like try the skin Aeon Madnox. Enable animated fanart and browse your library and the skin access the database and show the animated gifs.
If you use another skin ask the skin dev to integrate the skin helper to show animated gifs.
@rschiks thank you for providing the webspace and building the database.
