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

I've been working on a system that generates movie-specific content on the fly every time you launch a PreShow sequence. Instead of static slides, PSE now dynamically creates a "Tonight's Feature" title card and (optionally) 30 custom trivia slides tailored to whatever film you're about to watch. I wanted to share the approach in case others want to build on it. Here's what it looks like in practice: you press Start PreShow on "Fargo," and a few seconds later your sequence opens with a custom ti

We frequently set up a collection of 10 to 20 slides as a pre-show before our programming for 30 or so minutes using the Slideshow module. However, we encounter the slideshow limitation: once all the slides have been displayed once, the slideshow ends, regardless of the total duration set. To achieve our desired length, we duplicate and manually number the slides, which is quite cumbersome when looking to keep the same rotation order over and over. Would it be possible to add a “loop” option to

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
Automatically Turn Lights On Once End Credits Begin
View feature requestWould there be a way to add an action file that turns the home theater lights on once the end credits begin to roll, perhaps either by running an action file once the final chapter begins? Or perhaps, if a specific text file exists in the title's source directory (eg. lights-on.pse) containing nothing but a user-defined timestamp, at which point an action file to turn the lights on is then run? This would be helpful for titles that have no chapter markers or the desired time to turn the lights on it to wait until after a mid-credit scene.
