These 3 steps perform well, but then cinemavion fails to launch the movie
Here is the debug log http://xbmclogs.com/ptsowtne8. I use openelec V6 on a raspberry PI model B. I had the same problem with the previous version of openelec.
Thanks for your help.
Hey there! XBMCLogs doesn't seem to think your log exists. Can you post it up again for us?
(2015-11-07, 09:38)kemuri Wrote: OK, here's my experience. On my laptop - with the setup described by Scott - everything works fine. Both trailer and audio bumper intro plays as it has to. Now rPi model B 512: same setup, CV folder path on SD card = only trailer, no audio bumper intro. Tried to change CV content path to smb location = same. No intro, only trailer. I have the files copied to correct folders, as i mentioned with my laptop works great. Any suggestions? Thank you!
Edit: It works now normally after i did a reboot on my Pi. Dont know what the trouble was.
Weird, but I'm glad it's working now.

EDIT: I finally got it working. I had to create and save a new sequence with the sequence editor. The default one was invalid or something?
We're going to add some error logging to the next point release. When you see CinemaVision update to 1.0.2, can I get a full log from you with debug logging turned on in the CinemaVision add-on configuration? This is pretty helpful, but we want to be sure we have everything we could possibly need to fix the error.

The custom modules are good and have been designed well. The skin I use has integrated CV so I have just set everything up and it works perfectly, except that the movie does not play after the sequence is finished, just returns back to the normal screen. I feel like I am missing the blatantly obvious here but not sure what exactly it is, but does anyone have an idea as to why it does not play automatically after the sequence is finished?
Hey, thanks! We're pretty proud of it.
Can I get a log from you with debug logging turned on in the CinemaVision add-on configuration? It may also help if you post up your sequence file so we can see what's up. I have a suspicion, but want to be sure before I send you on a wild goose chase.

Thx
I'm not sure the pop-up suppression was added. That's relatively new. The instructions to do it are on the first page of this thread. You'll want to be sure to only suppress pop-ups while CinemaVision is active. I'll reach out to Marcos and see if it's in there, and lobby to add it if it's not.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Make sure you have updated content so that CinemaVision catalogs all of the content you have stored. There's an option in the CinemaVision add-on configuration, and you can set it to auto-update every time you launch the sequence editor as well. When we develop and release the CinemaVision Service Add-on, the plan is to have content auto-update without any user interaction if you want it to.

Literally everything else is! I have re-downloaded the audio files from your website, Scott. Log says "file unplayable" as per previous post. No idea why this is. When I manually select the file it plays flawlessly.
Can I talk you into posting a log after reproducing the issue with Audio Format Bumpers?
You can find my log here: http://www.xbmclogs.com/p5h4drjc5
I think it is some sort of caching problem. If you have a look at the log you will find this line:
Quote:ERROR: Playlist Player: skipping unplayable item: 1, path [smb://NASDDB2A8/Multimedia/XBMC/Media/Cinema Vision/Audio Format Bumpers/DTS-HD Master Audio/DTS - SFX.m2ts]
Thing is, I don't even have this file in my setup anymore! I have downloaded the mp4 version of the same file off your website and replaced it in the DTS HD folder. But CV still assumes the old (corrupted) file needs to be played back. How do I get around this? Update Content Path in CV settings does not make a difference.
I had also tried to uninstall the add-on entirely. But to my surprise, when I downloaded the app again to set things up from scratch my old options were still there! I think I need to flush my cache somehow. I am on Openelec.
Make sure your SMB share has been added as a source in the Kodi File Manager, and not just as a video source. The instructions to do that are under the CONFIGURATION heading in
this post. We've seen Kodi do some weird things when that's not done, including what you're seeing here.
As for the file that doesn't exist, make sure you've updated your CinemaVision content so it removes files that don't exist anymore, and adds new files. You'll want to do this any time you add or remove content from the CinemaVision content directories. We have plans to make that automatic, but we're not there just yet. Personally, I'm not sure how OpenELEC works, but there is an option to reset the CinemaVision database in the CinemaVision add-on configuration. I don't think you need to go that far. I think a content update will fix the issue. Let me know how it goes.
(2015-11-08, 08:52)aptalca Wrote: Hi Scott,
I can't get the slides.xml files to work. I have quite a few slides packs that I acquired over the years and they all use different naming schemes. I had slides.xml's that fit each in their respective folders and they worked in cinema experience.
But cinema vision does not seem to accept anything I tried and treats all question and answer slides as individual slides.
For instance I have a pack with naming scheme CokeCount1a.jpg for questions and CokeCount1b.jpg as the answer. My xml has the following:
Code:
<slides>
<slide>
<question format="CokeCount([0-9]{1,3})a\.jpg" />
<clue format="CokeCount([0-9]{1,3})c\.jpg" />
<answer format="CokeCount([0-9]{1,3})b\.jpg" />
</slide>
</slides>
What is a correct format for the xml?
Thanks
You'll find the default format for the XML file at the bottom of
this post on the first page. From the look of your XML file, it might be easier for you to do a batch rename of the files. For example, replace
c.jpg with
_c.jpg. If you're running Windows, here's a nifty PowerShell script that I use to rename strings in file names that will help you automate the process:
Code:
Dir |
Rename-Item -NewName { $_.Name -replace "Replace This","With This" }
To use the above, create a text file and change the extension to PS1 instead of TXT. Copy the PowerShell script into the directory you want to process, change the variables to match what you want to replace, and then execute the script.

Thanks for the suggestion, unfortunately it did not work for me. I will have a closer look to see what I am missing later.
Post up a log with debug logging enabled in the CinemaVision add-on configuration. The log should help us figure out what's going on.

This isn't a problem (at least for people running Macs or Linux) - merely create a file alias and move the alias(es) into the CinemaVision video bumpers directory for short films.
Good tip! If you think it's a bug, enable debug logging and shoot us a log of you updating content with everything in the proper place. I'm curious what you're seeing.

Audio trailers work fine as do previews. I did remove old parts of the log as it had login credentials that I didn't want on pastebin. What's posted should be sufficient.
We're going to add some more logging into the next release. You're not the only person seeing this error, but why it's happening doesn't appear to make sense. When you see 1.0.2 download, send us a log file with debug logging enabled in the CinemaVision add-on settings so that we can review it.
