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?

Deprecation of HTTP support With the RED compliance being effective per 1st August, all firmware releases being released will no longer support HTTP. The Hue API should be accessed exclusively over TLS (HTTPS) to protect personal and sensitive information even better. Guidance on implementation can be found in our application design guidance.

Hi, I have local trailers for almost every movie, and do not have the YouTube add-on installed because historically for me is stays broken a lot. So I do not want that to be part of the PreShow Experience. I want PreShow to use only the trailers scraped into the KODI database. Yet when I use PreShow, I get the message that the YouTube add-on is required during the trailer sequence. Is there no way to prevent this? This happens with versions 3.41. and 3.4.3. Never had this issue with CV before, s

Hello, I noticed that PreShow will always play the same theater intro video, even tho I have the sequence set to play random, and I have 3 to pick from. Using version 3.4.3

Many of you will probably be aware that, since the dawn of time, each version of Kodi takes a vaguely sci-fi/fantasy/movie-themed name, in alphabetical order (Ed: no, don't ask what happens after we get to Z). This has become common practice throughout the IT industry - look at iOS, Android, Ubuntu, Intel chips, and similar: it provides a useful and friendly way to refer to a release without getting tied up in numbers and decimal points.
Anyway, over the past 13 years or so we've chewed through Atlantis, Babylon, Camelot, Dharma, Eden, Frodo, Gotham, Helix, Isengard, Jarvis, Krypton, Leia and Matrix ... and, as we branch the code for the next release, it's time to bestow a name on our next version.
We ran a thread on the forum (thank you to everyone for their suggestions), filtered them for repetition, our ability to remember how to type them, and general scandal, and then put the top community-suggested names to a Team vote.
While we've previously had very specific names, this one is perhaps a little broader in its reference.
So, is it...

Kodi 20 "Nexus"

Don't get too excited about a new version dropping any time soon, as 19.x "Matrix" is still fresh out of the oven. However, you now know what's coming, and, if you're inclined, you can now follow development of this specific branch.
