I don't think that this has been figured out yet.
Also if I can remember correctly, I believe Giftie has said the "Misc" is not working or null.
Also have you found anything, addon or script that would define your needs in the lights? And if so could those be shared, so to help with making the CE a better experience for others?

Invincer Wrote:Is anyone else running into an issue where the movie just will not play? I have everything pointed to the folders and files I had used previously on HTE, but in trying the script with a number of different skins it runs the cinema files, but then just goes back to the movie menu screen on the next movie after the one I had selected (but of course without playing the selected movie).

Used Confluence with
<control type="button" id="13"> <description>Home Theatre</description> <include>ButtonInfoDialogsCommonValues</include> <label>Cinema</label> <onclick>Playlist.Clear</onclick> <onclick>Dialog.Close(MovieInformation)</onclick> <onclick>XBMC.RunScript(script.cinema.experience)</onclick> <visible>system.hasaddon(script.cinema.experience) + Container.Content(movies)</visible> </control>

also tried Transparancy on the icon, same problem

Invincer Wrote:Tried the change to

<control type="button" id="13">
<description>Home Cinema Experience</description>
<include>ButtonInfoDialogsCommonValues</include>
<label>Cinema</label>
<onclick>Dialog.Close(MovieInformation)</onclick>
<onclick>Playlist.Clear</onclick>
<onclick>RunScript(special://home/addons/script.cinema.experience/addon.py)</onclick>
</control>

Didn't help; same problem. Mine isn't random, it happens every time I try it. Guess I will try a log, thought maybe there was something simple maybe I was missing

Targettio Wrote:Thanks, I assumed it was a 'sidelined' feature while he worked on the main aspects of the script.

I am in the process of developing my own addon(s) to control an arduino, which in turn controls my lights via RF (http://www.homeeasy.eu/).

I have been struggling to get xbmc's python to communicate with the arduino via usb.

In order to overcome these issues I have bought an ethernet shield for my arduino which should allow me to use an HTTP/JSON type communication which I hope will work better.

If I make any worthwhile progress then I will post something on here. But it could be a while

giftie Wrote:Once I get some specifics done, I will work on breaking the functions down. This will then allow reorganizing the 'playback' This will then allow to add this feature into the script and others.

SlaveUnit Wrote:Richard,
It shows there is an update with he cinema script or the repo itself?

Invincer Wrote:Nope, not at all the same problem. In his situation he had a line
<onclick>Action(Queue,25)</onclick>
that should not have been in the code from what everyone was saying. Plus his problem was it played the wrong movie, mine doesn't play the movie at all, but acts like it did moving to the next movie in the menu and showing the movie I had selected as being watched (though it never was)
