I've been playing with this script and have it working as it should be. So far it's really great, but right now I only have it pulling a couple of Apple trailers and a random "Dolby" or "DTS" video in place of a "Feature Presentation" clip.
I'd also be interested in a few more video categories as well... 4 - 5, each with the option of fixed file, playlist, or 1-5 randoms. With more categories would probably come the need for some flexibility in the order of each category.
The categories could remain unnamed or arbitrary, but my flow would be something like:
1.) 5-10min Trivia
2a.) "Coming Attractions" intro
2b.) 2-3 Random Apple trailers
3.) Random lobby/snack video
4.) Random Cartoon Short
5.) Random "Popular Science" Newsreel
6.) "Feature Presentation" intro
7.) Selected Movie
I'd be going for the '50s Movie Theater Saturday Matinée arrangement as opposed to the Drive-In arrangement.
