I picked ADX because they were the best price / performance at the time. Powered with a Dayton Audio SA230 amp. Best price / performance transducer now would have to be the Dayton Audio BST-300EX Extreme. Requires a beefier amp though like the SA1000.

Thanks for the additional info - I’ll keep that in mind as I finish tweaking my sequence. Appreciate it, once again!

Why did you choose the ADX Maximus? I've often thought about bass shakers, but have never been able to settle on what to get. I mostly see Dayton Audio now. Also, what do you power them with?

Glad you got it working. Agreed. I think I also messed it up the 1st time. I got the other YT addon configured properly multiple times and it still broke at some point. There have been some issues with the YouTube for Trailers addon, but Matt has always fixed them and it wasn't something that I had to bang my head against the wall trying to figure out what wasn't working. That's good advice for any addon. There are some things that Kodi doesn't recognize at the initial install, and that will only work after a restart. There are a few things in PreShow that are affected by this also.

Just reporting back for others - Matt Huisman’s YouTube for Trailers is the best answer. Just a quick public service - do yourself a favor and read the instructions VERY carefully. There are a few steps and if you miss any of them you~ll be scratching your head. The info is all there - but, speaking for myself - I have a tendency to be in a hurry... Also - once you get through all of the install steps, shut Kodi completely down and bring it back up. That also made me think it didn't work. But once I restarted - my trailers are back — and working as expected. Thanks for the guidance Matt - you’re a treasure, as always. —T

Thanks Matt - exactly what I was looking for! TS… yes, I tried multiple times to wade through the API process to no avail. They don’t make it easy for a non-programmer for sure. Thanks again!

If you want the best quality for youtube trailers, please use Matt Huisman's YouTube for Trailers addon. It is a drop in replacement for the standard YouTube addon. It doesn't provide access to youtube, but with a $5 yearly donation you can get the highest quality youtube trailers without all the hassle of the API. I'm in no way affiliated with him, just a fan of his work.

Could be you need an API for youtube. I'm having the same problem, getting APIs into the kodi pluggin for youtube on xbox is a less than ideal process. Have a look at this Personal API Keys · anxdpanic/plugin.video.youtube Wiki · GitHub

Trailers work. I was just testing them earlier today. Have you updated your content? What trailer source are you using? Share a log and I'll try to help. To share a log, close out of Kodi and then reopen it. Play the sequence where you are having the issue or preview the trailer module. Then go into the PreShow settings and scroll down in the general tab until you see "paste my kodi.log to pastebin." Click that and then click "current." Next, click Show QR code and use your phone to get the link to the pastebin page. You can either share that in this thread or send me a direct message through the site with it.

I’ve completely uninstalled PreShow Experience and reinstalled. I’ve made sure the Youtube plugin is installed. I’ve enabled all sources and ran content updates several times. I start with a new blank sequence, put in a trailers module - set it to 3 trailers. Do a “preview” - it turns the screen black and then returns. I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled the Youtube plugin as well. I’m out of ideas unless someone can tell me that this is just broken for now?

Favorite unique piece of hardware would have to be the 4 x ADX Maximus tactile transducers installed to the seating. You dont just hear the movie. You feel it.

Difficult question.. I am currently upgrading my hometheatre and got some smart curtains, which I really like. But all in all I would say it is my NAS since HomeAssistant is running on it and this is the heart of my hole automation. On the other hand, I had to listen in stereo for a while because of the upgrading process, what showed the benefits of surround-sound and height speakers. All in all it is the cinema experience of all components which work together :)

What gear are you most excited about when you watch a home movie?

Thank you in advance. I have to say that if the plugin runs without errors, it leaves nothing to be desired, the function with the action sequence in the middle and last chapter is brilliant. Thank you for your work.🙏

Thanks for sending the log. I'll review it and discuss it with you via PM.

My Projector Epson EH-TW9400 is Behind the Seats in a seperate Room, and is projection trough mirogard glass. I pick up this location, because I have no noise in the Cinema Room.

I sent the log and the sequence file via PM. Note: I had deactivated YouTube adon because I didn't need it and had assigned a video file for the audio format bumper. Then at this point pse stopped in front of the audio format bumper and wanted youtube adon to be installed, otherwise it wouldn't be executable.

Glad you figured it out.

I've found a / the solution: Just changed the Default Skin... If you are also looking for it: \\IP\Share\Storage\Android\data\com.zidoo.zdmc\files\.kodi\addons\skin.confluence\backgrounds --> SKINDEFAULT.jpg Robert +++ CLOSED +++

You can add the log to this thread or send a private message.

I´ll send a log later. I have a local video file for Audio Format Bumper. I don´t using any youtube videos for PSE.

The audio format module shows videos using the youtube addon if you don't have a local video for that format. I'd need to see a log and your sequence file to tell more.

I had already thought of that too. I got Skin Estuary from the downloads section here. The loading circle when buffering is actually not displayed. I'll try it. The funny thing is that sometimes before the audio format bumper and after the audio format bumper the attached image pops up for a very quick look. that is not hidden then. strange right? PSE is loading something or what could it be?

Do you have a skin that disables the notification? If you use a skin that hides the loading icon it also removes the notification. That's my best guess as to what's happening. Switch to the default Kodi skin and see if it works.

Hello, This script worked perfectly about a year ago and faded in the pause in longer films. #Movie Pause http://kodi:kodi@192.xxx.xxx.xx:8080/jsonrpc {"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"GUI.ShowNotification","params":{"title":"Pause","message":"10 Minutes","displaytime":8000},"id":0} I hadn't used it for a while and wanted to use it again in an action file in the Function for Middle Chapter, but it no longer shows up. Is it possible that something has changed in PSE or Kodi with an update that does not allow the display? If I activate the file in the test it works and shows me the notification. I think it's now running in the background in Kodi when playing a movie.
