Is there any plans or way to block the Kodi pop up "Working" text that has a spinning arrow. Thank you!

This is a pretty minor change, but there are now a few default sequences to load.

Curious if it's possible to have a context menu for PSE mapped to a right-click on as kin built button so you can left-click the button to start the regular PSE sequence per the proper parameters but also be able to right-click (or another control type action equal to) that would bring up the context menu allowing you to select the sequence you'd like to run? My reasoning for this is to have the skin button run my default full PSE sequence anytime without the context menu pop-up as it's nicer and cleaner especially when hosting guests. But sometimes I'd like to run a shorts PSE sequence before a movie, something with a trailer or 2, the audio bumper and t…

I had 1 issue getting PreShow to work in Kodi 21 Omega. It originally wanted InputStream Adaptive to play all the videos. I turned that off and everything appeared to work as expected. I'm going to looking further into this when I get time. Please post your experiences with PreShow Kodi 21 Omega here.

Hello! I'm a Newbee to all of this of PSE. Years ago I found CinemaVision in some forums, but I gave it up after the problems with newer versions of Kodis... - So I'm so glad having found PSE for my Zidoo Z9X Pro with Kodi 20 (ZDMC 20.2). It's working at last (after I recognised that I have to have a skin supporting PSE... 😉 ). Now I have to tune it a little bit, but the main work is done. Only one (I hope so...) last point is left making troubles. 🤨 Maybe here is one PSE-Pro who can help me: My content of bumpers is stored on a HDD attached directly to the Zidoo-Player by SATA, because my network won't handle the traffic of some of the trailers... they…

I am using tinymediamanager to scrape my movies and pull down trailers locally. However, each trailer is pulled down into the movies folder. My current directory structure is this NAS://media/Movies NAS://media/preshow/Trailers Trailers for each movie show up in NAS://media/Movies/<MovieName>/trailers/trailer.mp4 Is there anyway to have the preshow experience display only these trailers, maybe recursively based off file format, or another syntax with wildcards?

Artic Zephyr Reloaded for PreShow Experience in Kodi 20 View File This is beta - it SHOULD work - i have tested and existing settings all stick. this mod also makes the PreShow action the default focus when in the Video Dialog window. even made a custom PreShow icon from the O in the PreShow logo. things i noticed. if you install the artic zephyr skin after you install PreShow Experience, PreShow might not show in the context menu. just uninstall preshow (be sure to select NO when it asks to delete the settings/files) and reinstall. it will then have the context menu. this might have been a me thing as i was tired when running te…

I went from a Windows environment to Mac. I seem to remember that “Page Up” was the way to skip to the next module on the PC - is there an equivalent key press on the Mac to go to the next module? Thanks!

Hi, I am using the skin Copacetic on the latest version of Kodi. Is there a way of forcing PSE to start when ever a movie is started? If you create sub menus the option to run PSE is not there, it only works in certain menu systems. I think that the old Cinema Experience you could do this, but been a long time since I used that. Copacetic is fantastic as a dedicated cinema skin rather than a general media player such as Artic Horizon. I am not sure if this is possible or not, but I would love to do this on this particular skin, rather than having to go to information and then running it from the menu. Cheers for any help given. Regards …

Hello, I've switched from Kodi 18 + CinemaVision to Kodi 20 + PreShowExperience recently. First, thank you very much for continuing supporting/developing this great feature! During run of my sequence there's is the load status (little blue circle at the center of the screen) visible for short moments between two sequential features. It disturbs the enjyoment of the preshow... How to prevent that? I've found out that there's a file "DialogBusy.xml" related to the active skin (e. g. Aeon Nox Silvo). Line 5 of this file is currently the following: "<visible>!Window.IsVisible(startup) + String.IsEmpty(Window(Home).Property(scrip…

Hi, pretty nice Addon!! I was also a Big Fan of Cinemavision and I do remember that there was an Option to stop adjusting refresh rate while Trailers and Bumpers were playing. Did I missed the setting somewhere? If not, is it planned to include this in a later Version? thanks and regards

I have just installed the update and tried the new preview module in the sequence editor. Should it only play the current module or play the rest of the sequence? It seems to be playing from the Trivia Intro, but i have select the preview from a different module. I also have the trivia modules disabled, so I think I have found a bug.
