Why not just use apple movie trailers?
I'm not 100% sure i'm following your requests, as that is what apple movie trailers is...

I guess if the home theatre script worked (Doesn't work on my XBMC Live) only new trailers would be wanted.
The new skin, Aeon MQ2 has trailers option on the home menu. (Very nice looking skin)
It simply links to AMT, but I stream them, I dont download them. Maybe it could be adapted to work with AMT by streaming a random trailer, and adding it to a "watched list" afterwards, so the next random trailer you stream, is not on your "Watched list"...?
This way you dont have to download in advance, and it will be very slick.

I have been using XBMC for about a year now, and love the program. I am building a multimedia system for my 6 year old niece who loves this script, the trivia, the trailers and the feeling of a real theater. However, it is too difficult for her to go into the movie information and run the script every time that she wants to watch a movie. Is there a way to automate this task (that way whenever you click on a movie) it will automatically run the script? I hope there is, seeing as how she lives about one hundred miles away (and walking a six year old through a computer step via phone - can be, well difficult!) If anybody knows please do tell. I have searched through the XML files and have found nothing that I can trigger. Thank you for your help. - RLH

Finally found an answer to my question. I was able to get the script tor run before every movie using an XBMC rebuild (based off of the Dharma branch), that I managed after some time to get compiled. Thanks for the help, errr I guess.:-D

First off, thanks for this amazing script. Totally awesome and exactly what I wanted when I recently decided to cut cable and go with an HTPC.
The problem I'm having is that my trivia only wants to play the Pixar slides. Everything else, the meeMovieTunes folders for example, do not play at all.
