Yes just the trailers , it has a new update it needs to work but if your not using it dont worry about that one .. You need to copy over the XBMCmediaInterface folder Its in Great Dane Cinema/MoviePoster/Plugins/ Your settings should be fine since they are saved in your temporary cache Its been almost a year since i changed everything im pretty sure there were 4 dll files that i had changed from CinemaVision to Preshow im double checking now but i think everything was in the plugin folder . I will use Dreamweaver to search to see if there's any more files that need transfered over Just a side note i didn't change the cs files where it calls for the filename “moviecinemavision” so if you want to change the artwork you will have to use that filename .. I figured the creator would be updating it anyway so why change it , all i just changed the dll files that would see CinemaVision playing to Preshow so it would be functional till hopefully it gets updated

I believe so, but isn't it only required to view trailers?

Its been a hot min since i worked on it Ill get you a list .. i assuming you got the updated youtube dll already?

If the MoviePosterApp is already installed, what files(s) from this one should I copy and overwrite specifically in my current installation?

Alas! after much perseverance…. I have cracked it. needed a different line but all good now. Also read the other full guide on here again and again. Read, code, test, repeat, read, code, test, rep…. Anyways, I have solved it!

After setting up action files to control hue, the system works in that the correct scene is triggered but at the same time it decides to turn on ALL the other lights in the hue bridge. one of my action files is this. Definitely right and as I say triggers the scene off, but also whacks all lights with it. is it something to do with APIV2? Many thanks

Happy New Year and thank you for your work on PSE!

The 0.3 series is primarily geared towards enabling metadata in PreShow and filtering on that data. One of the new features in PreShow Experience 0.3.1 is the new Allowed Genres setting. By default your PreShows will allow all genres. I know that some people have no interest in some genres and this will allow you to turn them off. The available genres are: Action Adventure Animated Comedy Crime Documentary Drama Family Fantasy History Horror Music Mystery Romance Science Fiction Thriller War Western Trailers with genres that aren’t allowed will no longer be shown in your PreShows.

Happy New Year, Matt!

I second @MidnightWatcher choices with the exception of Scrooge. My third choice is Scrooged (1988). Watching those 3 every Christmas takes me back. Those are my top three “Must Watch” but I have an assortment of other films that include the usual suspects (Home Alone 1/2, How The Grinch Stole Christmas animated and Jim Carrey, It’s a Wonderful Life, Miracle on 34th Street, etc) and some oddballs like Trapped In Paradise (1994), The Family Man (2000), Surviving Christmas (2004), and Krampus.

So, a slightly different topic for a change. We talk a lot about the Kodi software, its development and releases, and that's fine, as that's what we're all about and that's what everyone ultimately sees. However, we thought we'd change the subject a little and explore what goes on behind the scenes: how "Team Kodi" is structured, and what else is going on in the background in support of that glorious code. The Kodi Foundation and the Board of Directors Kodi has a legal personality. We're incorporated in the US as the Kodi Foundation, a 501(c)(3) non-profit - or a type of NGO, in common European parlance. This is the "company", it's the entity that receives donations, signs hosting agreements, protects our trademarks, and owns any assets and intellectual property. However, we don't have any of the trappings of a regular company: we have no employees, minimal assets, and no property. We're wholly run by volunteers and a few carefully-chosen outside agents for e.g. legal work. The Kodi Foundation is then made up of members of Team Kodi. It's not mandatory to join - you can be a Team member and not join - but it's the Foundation members who get a vote on major decisions. Probably the most regular of those decisions is the appointment of our Board of Directors - again, Team members, all volunteers, each of whom serves a two-year term as part of a Board of five members. The Board then manages Kodi: funds, publicity, taxes, lawyers, copyright bodies, banks, sponsors, non-profit oversight, and so on. There's also a whole raft of internal administrivia - member lists, permissions, access rights, what's filed where, who's responding to what, why are we getting these emails, no we don't want your adverts. As both a Team and as a Board, we hold regular Zoom meetings to discuss progress, schedules, and any related issues that may crop up from time to time. As you can imagine, this can be quite a challenge given the timezones we cover, so everything is available afterwards for Team members to catch up on. The Greater Team Kodi It's not just paperwork, though. It's easy to think of Kodi as a bunch of lines of code, hammered out in the small hours by pizza-fuelled developers, and that's not necessarily too far wide of the mark in some ways. But there's also so much more: even to maintain that code needs discipline, a release manager, code reviews, Github admin. We have people who look after build servers and DNS records, who administer our email and collaboration tools, who feed and water everything from backup servers to the server that hosts the forums: software upgrades, patches, hardware replacement, migrations. And we have people to write posts like this, to design our graphics for each release, to modify skins, to compile and build new releases. Funding it All As mentioned above, this is all voluntary: nobody at Kodi gets paid anything for what they do. We all do this as a hobby, because we enjoy it in some way. And what makes that possible is primarily you, our users. We generate a few tens of thousands of dollars a year. Most of that comes directly from donations - that little orange button in the top right; some comes from merchandise sales such as T-shirts or royalties on branded Flirc goods; and the rest comes from corporate sponsorship, which is an ephemeral beast at best. You'll perhaps notice that we've always steered clear of advertising, so there are no popups on this site, no banner ads, and nothing within the application itself: that's very deliberate, and we work hard to keep it like that. On that note, we'd like to give a huge shout out to Flirc right now, as they've just started selling a Raspberry Pi 5 branded Kodi case. This is the only company authorised to use our brand on a product, and the only company who gives us royalties: we get a small amount for every case sold. They've been consistently helping us out financially for the last few years and, without them, we would be attending many fewer conferences. And where does the money go? We have hosting costs, professional service fees (lawyers, copyright specialists, accountants), banking fees. While we sometimes get sponsored hardware, we have to pay for servers, storage, bandwidth. If someone is working on a feature and they need a particular piece of hardware that we can't get donated, we'll buy them something (e.g. to assist with porting Kodi to a new platform). Perhaps our biggest costs are conferences: the Open Source world thrives on community, so we have tried to get people representing us at FOSDEM, Embedded Linux Conference, OSS Summit, SCALE, and the Open Source Leadership Summit - although the majority of funds goes to getting as many members as possible to attend our annual developer conference, Kodi Devcon. We think we do pretty well on limited funds, and we've had some big donations in the past, but unfortunately those are drying up, so we're starting to have to make hard decisions on not covering our volunteers costs to represent us at some of the conferences. Once 2024 ends, we will publish a detailed financial blog post, outlining our expenses this past year, but we'd love help from readers and users like you! What's Needed More hosting is always appreciated. We get by nearly entirely from free hosting and can't thank our sponsors such as OSUOSL and Leaseweb enough, but can always use more diversity. We always need volunteers to work on stuff! Social Media and someone to manage our store are two that come to mind, but platform-specific development experience (e.g. Android) is always good. Sponsorship! if you think you have a good fit for a sponsor who aligns with our interests, please, reach out! If you have any corporate matching, Kodi is registered as a corporate nonprofit beneficiary with the Benevity platform. And lastly, monetary donations go a long way too. As stated, we are a 501(c)(3), so these donations are tax deductible in the US. If you have a few dollars, pounds, euros or equivalent going spare, you can really help us out. Thank you! We always want to keep some money in the bank, and we have a rule: we need to be able to cover the next Devcon before we hold this one and, unfortunately, 2025 may be the last year for a couple years at the current rate of donations. We spend less than US$30k for the entire event, including flying our team from around the world to attend plus all hotel/food/conference room costs, but our current finances just won't support this after next year's conference unless something changes, such as a new sponsor (or the RPi5 case becomes exceedingly popular and sells out!). Thank you very much in advance for anything you can do to help. -- Team Kodi View the full article

My three are (in no particular order): National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation A Christmas Story Scrooge (1970) I hope they release a 4K for Scrooge some day! Edit: What makes a movie — any movie — a “Christmas movie” for me is whether or not the backdrop of the film takes place during the holidays (and there’s the occasional scene that includes Christmas lights or a Christmas tree or Christmas music). Yes, I consider Die Hard and even the recent Netflix film “Carry-On” both Christmas movies. Other notable mentions would be Gremlins, The Sound of Music, The Long Kiss Goodnight.

Holiday movies often becoming traditions that bring us together with family and friends. Some movies remind us of childhood memories, while others capture the magic and chaos of the holiday season in ways that feel deeply personal. Is there a holiday movie you think is underrated or deserves more attention? What makes a movie feel like a 'holiday movie' to you—does it need to be set during the holidays, or just have the right vibe? In other words, is Die Hard a holiday movie? Do you prefer classic holiday movies or modern ones?
