Hello, We’ve run into a portability issue when creating sequences in PreShow Experience on a desktop or non-media-server player. Currently, PreShow stores all media references as absolute file paths tied to the original machine. This means that if we move a PreShow project folder to another server or workstation, the sequence breaks because the media paths still point to the original device location. This creates unnecessary extra steps when deploying sequences for: Short films Theatre intros

Currently working out a series of videos for theater intros. Using Unreal Engine. Slow going but I hope to make one for every genre. At least I have one. I customized the Regal Cinemas 1990's roller coaster to my theater. Used some AI to change some wording in the narration and Davinci resolve to edit the text on the marque scroller. Gruelling work as unreal Engine is hard to learn. Nothing is straight forward. Everything is a task. But I hope in the end it looks great. Doing an old West town

For the initial release of the trivia metadata I'd like for you to test the basic scoring functionality. Here is the trivia folder to be installed in your PreShow trivia content folder. The trivia testing pack includes the following: Rating G.jpg PG-13.jpg PG.jpg R.jpg Decade 1950s.jpg 1960s.jpg 1970s.jpg 1980s.jpg 1990s.jpg 2000s.jpg 2010s.jpg 2020s.jpg Genres Action.jpg Adventure.jpg Animation.jpg Comedy.jpg Crime.jpg Documentary.jpg Drama.jpg Family.jpg Fantasy.jpg Histor

I have a friend that wants to watch the "scariest movie." I think scary is very subjective, so I figured I'd ask it here. What do you think is the scariest movie?
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...
Ladies, gentlemen, non-binary, non-human, and inorganic lifeforms... I give you ...
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.
