Hello I need some help, i use kodi with google chromcast and I try to use preshow add on but If I start a prewiev an error message apears (see log pictures) What goes wrong? https://ibb.co/7X5G990 https://ibb.co/rvdS01J https://ibb.co/KwyGNcy

One could trick cinemavision to work with discs (Bluray / DVD) as well. I'm not quite sure how I did it, but it either worked by playing a directory using two files ("empty" with black screen & media stub for disc playback) or by using a playlist file containing the media stub file. Playback could be triggered by running a python script in the menu. If I remember correctly this did no longer work starting with Kodi 19 or at least I'm currently unable to reproduce this behaviour. I tried to recreate this, but to no avail. I also tried starting the disc directly with the PlayDisc()-command and having basically no feature. This will work when testing in the edit…

Do we have official instructions on how to implement Philips Hue lights with PreShow so that they dim, shut off, and turn on at certain parts of the sequence? I want to be able to integrate this, and I've seen mentions here and there, but I just wanted to know if someone has made official instructions on how to do this. I haven't had time to actually go through the CinemaVision instructions so if they work without needing to edit, then I apologize in advance. Here are the CV instructions: Philips Hue Setup - Here Philips Hue Advanced Features - Here

help with sequence. I created two sequences. But when I try to take the second sequence it jumps to the first sequence every time. what could be the reason?

Hi, I just recently got back into the movie theater experience making, and ive installed PSE, but the Cinema Mode button is missing. How do you make it re-appear?

hi there, I just installed the latest preshow on Kodi 20 nexus on my Nvidia Shield. I configured a test sequence which has nothing more than a trailer and feature module. My basic wants for the addon are to just show some trailers before a movie. I set the content folder to my movie folder (because I wont be using local content for now) I selected imdb trailers and TMDB trailers When I test the sequence in the settings app it plays just fine, but when I use the content sensitive option on a movie and try to launch the preshow it starts to load but then just goes to the movie. Not sure why it is not working. Any help would be greatly appreciated! …

Would it be possible for PSE to scrape Kodi video sources for local trailers, instead of relying on the trailer folder in the content path? Over the years, I accumulated dozens of movie trailers with uncompressed HD audio that are saved in the corresponding movie folders, e.g.: Dune Part Two (2024) Dune Part Two (2024)-trailer Kodi automatically picks these up when I play trailers from the movie information screen. It would be awesome if I could tap into my existing collection without needing to manually copy them into the content path, also considering that doing so would double my storage requirements.

Hello! Where do I go wrong? When I insert a module into a sequence (by accident or somehow) I‘m not able to delete (remove) the icon… PSE says „The PreShow must have a feature module.“ The sequence does have a feature module at its end! I use PSE 0.2.5 where I read something about „… can be deleted“ - so I think I‘m wrong. But how? Thanks to all! Greetings from Bavaria - Robert

I've tested my sequence modules and they all work as expected. But when I trigger it from the context menu it fails. I've uploaded the log files to: https://paste.kodi.tv/jotivohizi Any help would be appreciated

The feature is automatically skipped after 6 seconds. Not sure why this is happening.

I downloaded the “Coca-Cola Behind the scenes” slides from here and place the folder in the Slideshow folder. I installed the module and pointed to the folder. A couple things - can’t seem to change the duration - the slider moves, but the “seconds” doesn’t update. And when the sequence runs, it just skips that module. I also noticed that while editing this sequence, in red - lower right-hand corner, it says “INACTIVE” - which I don’t recall seeing previously. Any thoughts?

Hi people! I got the following two problems. I use Kodi v20 on a Xbox one X and PSE isnt working correctly. - The Preview is working fine, excepte the audio format bumper. They are only played if I choose a specific file.. If I choose auto-select-mode, the audio bumper is just being skipped in the preview. So my question is, if there is a specific way, the files in the audio format bumpers must be named. I got different audio trailers in nearly effery folder, but nothing works. - If i try to start a movie with preview, it only worked one time. But also without audio bumper. All the other times i can only see the "queue" menue and when I select the movie and…

Hi, I hope someone can help me. I got a Synology Nas and since I moved all my PSE stuff from my externl drives to the NAS, i cant play the trailer sequence in my PreShows anymore, but everything else works fine. I updated the directory to the NAS, PSE is able to write to it, I could choose single files for the actions and I use NFS. I thought I could work around by adding a video module via directory, but then it does not show me my network storage. Only external drives and a root-system. But if I add a video module and choose a single file, I can choose the NFS Networkstorage. Has anyone an idea what the problem could be?

Finally moving the media servers I manage forward to Kodi v20/21 and moving over from CinemaVision to PSE. Doing some testing so far I've found a few issues. First, trivia cannot be skipped. This isn't running on a shield it's in Windows 10. Second local trailers do not scrape and therefor do not work. Third, I believe there was a fix for this before but between each video the "working" pop-up gets annoying and would be great to have that hidden. Fourth along the same line if the feature to be played is on a hard drive that is currently sleeping by the time the sequence gets to playing the main feature you are greeted with a long pause while the…

Hello everyone, I have a question about Preshow Experience in the context of Jellyfin: Does this work or does the addon only work with content that is local? I have configured Preshow so far and created a first sequence. This also works when I use the integrated preview. However, I have not been able to get it to work before the actual movies. I have worked through the guides and unfortunately found nothing on the subject of whether it still needs to be activated somehow or how I need to start the actual movie so that the addon becomes active. Is there anything else I need to do besides configuring the addon to make Preshow work? Do you have any …

Hi all I've installed this on my Shield with Kodi and configured everything to the guides. But I don't see any mention as to how I start this? I was hoping for a menu item when long pressing on a movie or it even starts automatically when I start the movie, but nothing so far. What do I need to do? Thanks

hi, I would like to install a sleep function in the cvaction. How does this work? The light should stay on for e.g. 3 minutes and then slowly go out I've tried it before but somehow it doesn't work. See pictures. Thanks. # Philips Hue: Licht ausschalten sleep://3500 http://192.168.178.33/api/wsltUbHQbdnDhDEidaNJQg2s85Nv9OldLPE6TYeT/groups/Wand/action PUT: { "on": false, "transitiontime": 500 }

Is there any movement on the development of this? Would love to be able to invoke from my library view easily.

Hello, I love this addon but I cannot get it to work properly for me. I have a simple setup with a random intro video, three trailers, audio bumpers, then the feature. My problem lies with the trailers. Whenever I run PSE, it plays the intro video then attempts trailer playback. However, this stutters, then freezes mid-frame, then it simply crashes the trailer and tries again with the next one. This happens so often that I have temporarily abandoned the addon until I can work out what's causing this and fix it. My YouTube addon and my InputStream adaptive are all up-to-date and my playback device is a Vero 4k+, running OSMC on Linux. For PSE, I am running t…
