Hi All, I finished my theater room this past weekend and found XBMC while doing a general search about HTPC's, That search led me to find the Cinema Experience and I joined the forum tonight just to say THANK YOU to this community. I installed XBMC and CE two nights ago and have been pouring over every thread and topic I can find. Tonight I finally have the system setup and running. Pre show trivia, a few commercials, a welcome to our theater and policy trailer, and have the script scraping 2 current trailers just before the feature presentation. THIS ADD ON ROCKS!!!
Now I just need to tweek my settings and have 2 questions I cant seem to find an answer too.
I am running win7 64b with eden 11 with the Back Row Skin and Cinema Experience V2.0.57
What I am needing answered:
1: I have my Trivia slideshow set the volume to 80% of max. When the time ends and the program continues to the next stage, the speaker icon and bar shows on the screen as the sound fades off then ramps back up. Can this be hidden from view so the audience does not see the volume control?
2: when the trivia slide show times out, the screen fades to black to start the next event. In my case, a commercial is played from the local drive. when this happens, the movie information screen re-appears for about 1 to 2 seconds. then the commercial plays and the rest of the "experience" continues. Is there a setting that can be used to hide this from happening so i won't see the information screen? I'm betting there is and I just havn't figured it out yet.
Anyway..Like I said... AWESOME Add on and a Big BIG thank you to you guys and gals that are making this available to us.
Oh, One side note: is there an actual tutorial somewhere here that explains everything to do to set this up from scratch? I figured it out pretty easily by reading through a few different topics but am wondering if anyone has made a single point topic to fully show how a person installs and configures the program. If not, I may make a post on it once the last few tweeks are made to mine.
Thanks for any info you guys can give me about my speaker icon and movie info questions...
