Hey giftie! I've been away for a while with a dead projector, but just finally bought a new one and installed it, so I'm back at using XBMC with Cinema Experience. Got everything working great on my system, except for every once in a while XBMC will freeze the video output of an Apple trailer video after about 10 seconds of playing it while continuing to play the audio. It's not Cinema Experience's fault, as if I play the trailer directly with XBMC the same thing happens, yet the video plays fine using VLC. On one occasion that this occurred, I saw a little "blip" at the XBMC freeze point when I played the video in VLC, so I'm thinking that XBMC's video playback engine is less forgiving of non-perfect video files than other players are.
Just had a small suggestion for the trivia section that I thought would hopefully be easy enough to implement. I use both trivia "fact" images as well as questions and answers, so depending on how they are randomly chosen, occasionally the last slide will end up being a question that then the answer is not shown. This leaves my guests asking me, "What was the answer to that question?" Just wondering if it would be possible to modify Cinema Experience so that the last slide in the trivia is always either a still single image, or an answer slide (ie: not a question or clue slide)?
