Most of my trailers are DTS:HD MA encoded so this is a nice addition to my main source for lossless trailers:

I even tried a couple of different files with the same outcome. Maybe it had something to do with the browser. Oh well. Thanks for the help.

Why does it have to add every single item in my KodiDB every single time I run Cinemavision editor?

Right now I just rename my regular Trailers directory to Trailers1 and make a new Trailers directory where I copy the 3 specific ones I want to for CV to find. This way I get Star Wars every single time

I also have it set up to hide the progress bar (I dont' need a progress bar on screen since the Yatse app on my phone has it), that way nothing pops up in between video bumpers during the CV sequence, giving it the intended cinematic feel.

And thanks MW, will check out Rapier. I really like the look of Arctic Zephyr, though.

thx

(2015-11-01, 15:28)Tiny Clanger Wrote: I did have some trouble setting CV up, as it was unable to create its folder structure.
When selecting an SMB source as the location, you're not prompted for username/password. (Not sure if this is a CV issue or a Kodi issue, though.)
CV then tries to create the structure as a guest user — and allowing guest users write access to network shares is generally Not A Good Idea
I worked around this by manually inserting the path into userdata/addon_data/script.cinemavision/settings.xml's content.path entry and then updating content from the menu — but having to hack around in config files probably isn't the aim of CinemaVision!
For those having similar problems, the entry should be in the format
Code:smb://username:password@server/path

I have a smart playlist to select random episodes of Tom & Jerry / Three Stooges and other suitable material, but when I add a short film bumper, I can only find options for a specific file, a directory, or manually putting things in the CV folder structure. Is there a way to give a playlist name there and have CV pick one item at random?
Thanks

Thanks for that bit of information! Question for you. Was the SMB share added in Kodi File Manager (not the video source, but file manager proper)? If not, that might've been part of the issue. We've seen odd things cross-platform when the source for your CinemaVision files isn't added in File Manager on network shares. I'll also bounce this off of our developer just in case.

We haven't added support for playlists. I totally forgot about that. I'm adding it to the list now and will talk to our developer about it as well.
