I don't mean to intrude on phil's thread, but this has nothing to do with phil. These features are new and must be implemented by the skin's designer. You should ask them if they plan to integrate the script (perhaps into mq6).

[MANswers]

Thanks phil.
Yea I wished it was integrated on mq5 or mq6. Extended info script is a great add-on to xbmc. Really neat. So what skin is it fully integrated with. I might just move to that one just for this add on.

You can try Phil's in-progress version of Aeon Nox here. It is the most full-featured skin that utilizes the script, but the skin still has some way to go. A Tip: to customize the home menu, you must use a mouse. That bit confused me at first.

There are three in-progress skins that look as though they will make extensive use of extended info:

• Leanback: 213233 (thread).
  
• fTV: 207475 (thread).
  
• metroTV: 138997 (thread).
  

And there are probably others I'm not aware of. The creator of Bello posts in here and it appears extendedinfo features may be working their way into that skin: 214146 (thread).

And then there is Aeon Nox 5 (repo version), which has official support from the cast section (by pressing down on an actor). The extended info panels are ported from Phil's skin. You can also search for a movie by starting the add-on from the Programs node.

Aeon Nox 5 is the skin I use. I created panels to fit the Aeon Nox 5 theme for better integration and added a few widgets to the home screen that reference this script.

Extended Info Panels for Aeon Nox 5: 212479 (thread).
Extended Info Widgets for Aeon Nox 5: 213961 (thread).
A third mod by another user is available here: 1886177 (post).

With that said, when Phil's skin is complete, it will have the most extensive integration that goes far beyond replacing Metadata Actors, which is essentially the state of Aeon Nox 5.

hmm try this one:
https://github.com/phil65/script.extende...24e4d8ab3b
not sure if "0" can be a valid dbid.

EDIT: also it looks as you would have imdb_id=[TVDB_ID] atm. in that case try tvdb_id=...
(couldnt test all possibilites though, so no guarantees )

to get an idea about the priority of the parameters, take a look here:
https://github.com/phil65/script.extende...howInfo.py
(line 29 ff.)

try removing the try / except block in resources/lib/Utils.py l 723 and 732 - 734 (or add stacktrace module stuff) so you can see the actual exception

I use a shared thumbnail folder because i have a centralized database... so I don't use a local thumbnail folder... which appears to be the issue.

correct. did you have to deal with that already? (= do you know if we can get your thumbnail path easily?)
if not, I´ll peek into documentation when I find the time. In case nothing is available I´ll probably add an option in script settings to set thumbnail folder manually.

weird i'm looking at your code and it's correct...

my advancedsettings.xml is substituting correctly, so 'special://profile/Thumbnails/' should work...

Never mind translatePath, I see you are using it... not sure why it doesn't detect the changed path...

Is this a problem with extendinfo? When i click on upcoming movies, trending tv shows, top rated movies it just brings up the youtube box instead of an actual video, but trending movies works fine

You would have to be more specific than that. Do you mean the trailer doesn't play for each item, as that is the intended default action?
