Would be great, if PSE could be installed directly from the Repo.

We will be submitting PSE for the official Kodi Repo ASAP.  We are still trying to tackle a few remaining bugs before we do that though.

Hi,

is there any progress on the official Kodi Repo?

 

Happy Easter btw.!

We haven't gotten to this yet.  While this works fine for people that have experience with it, new users still have a lot of issues.  We need to do some work to make things easier for new people and complete our guides and tutorials before we can work on getting it submitted.

Wonder if a sequence template or demo sequence with a small select number of trivia slides and a song in the public domain could be included in a future release (or offered as a separate download for anyone who would like it?)

We have that for people that haven't set up their content folder.  It downloads a sample of @Polargeek's trivia, streams audio and bumpers.  Part of what we are working to update is how to provide that content after they have set up their content folder, as well as putting some directions in the actual add-on.

Glad to hear that this is worked on.

 

Tutorials are obviously a good thing. But they come become contraproductive and confusing whenever a new version of the App with new features, new settings etc. come out. Therfore i would usually preferr "embedded help functions". Something like pop-up messages or foot notes that explain the effect of specific setting. I think you already have that to a certin degree.

Will guides/tutorials be written only or is there a plan to eventually add video tutorials to PSE's Youtube channel? Lots of folks, particularly visual learners who excel through reflective observation, love to see video examples / demonstrations. The first could be just the bare basics, such as:

  • Installing PSE
  • Setting up the content path
  • Downloading and saving content
  • Creating a simple sequence

A subsequent video tutorial would be something more involved, such as creating action files for home automation ...

I am still working to get it to a point where I am comfortable submitting it to the official repo.

Right now I spend a ton of time working with people individually to  help troubleshoot issues they are having.  I need to modify it to make it easier for new people to use before I will submit it.  

If it was added to the repo today I would have to spend all of my time helping people and wouldn't have time to do anything else with it outside of that.

It's going to be a while before it gets submitted to the repo.

I still have 1 big issues that I want to resolve before trying to get PreShow into the official repository.  I hope to make my own repo available early next year.

Hello, when using PreshowExperience, it is not possible to play a movie in the background, every time I exit it, the movie ends, but the trailers also end. Can this be solved somehow?
