You could also try the last menu entry "Playback --> Limit track duration when multiple themes"
Thx for replying.
Fade out after playing for (minutes) is not what i'm looking for. (and minutes is too much btw, seconds would be more useful)
Limit track duration when multiple themes is a no use for me too, since I have only one theme per movie.

Putting all movies in a single folder is a very, but very bad idea.
Why is that ? I've been using Kodi (XBMC) since Dharma with this setup and I've never encountered any issue until now with this particular addon.
Also I wouldn't mind jumping to this setup, but it would mean to delete and rescan my entire library, and that's a no go for me, it would take me days to set it back to what I have currently (I mean visually speaking).

Like @malvinas2 said, there is a setting to limit the track duration when there are multiple themes for one movie. I can try to add another setting to limit the duration for a single theme. I'm not much of a coder, but I'll give it a shot.
Thanks for this but it won't solve my problem (at least I don't think it will).
I need some explanations on how this addon works :
- Isn't the theme supposed to switch to the newly selected movie theme as soon as you scroll movies in the library ?
- Or is it really supposed to play the entire theme of a movie, even if you switch from movie ?
I think you both got me wrong on what currently happens.
here is my setup :
"Movies folder"
- "Themes folder" (inside the movies folder as suggested in the addon settings and github wiki, and named "Themes")
- movie1title.mkv
- movie2title.mkv
- movie3title.mkv
- movie4title.mkv
and so on
now for the Themes folder:
- movie1title.mp3 (same title as movie except for the extension of course)
- movie2title.mp3
- movie3title.mp3
- movie4title.mp3
and so on
Now whenever I enter the movies library, it starts a theme, but it is always the same, and not the one corresponding to the selected movie.
If I move across movies, it still plays the same theme until it ends and skips to another one (totally random).
The only thing that is working is if I select a movie for which there is no theme = theme stops playing.
But as soon as I move to a movie with an existing theme = it starts again the same theme than when I entered the movies library...
It's almost like if the addon is playing a "fixed" playlist of my themes, and always the full themes.
Damn that was the cherry on the cake of my setup, I wish it could work.
Now if someone knows any way to switch to the "1 movie = 1 folder" setup, without having to start from scratch, I'm all ears !!
