Overwrite. Sometimes those may be higher resolution versions of older logos. For example, this latest update includes new Atlas Film, Lucas Arts, Focus Features and Mandalay Pictures logos. -
It's been awhile since I've used ratings. I believe the rating was a video, but thinking about it perhaps it was an image that faded in then out? 🤔

Yes that's good also, though I've moved mine out of the theater and one floor above.

I don't use any other add-ons. PSE is all I need. :)

Some NFO files in the movie poster cache could be missing the mpaa flag. Until the next movieposterapp dev release is available that allows us to select a default logo for missing mpaa and imdb flags, these posters will not show any ratings. The workaround is to manually edit the NFO file so that instead of the mpaa flag being empty it would say something like "<mpaa>R</mpaa>" or try refreshing the cached folders in the webremote. If you're on the same local network as the movieposterapp, I believe all you need to do is open a browser like Chrome on your phone / tablet / laptop and in the url enter: http://<movieposterapp IP address>:8082/remote.html Once connected, navigate to Menu > Poster Cache > Actions and choose Refresh Selected. If the mpaa flag is in the NFO but you're still not seeing the rating displayed, double check to make sure your folder is properly named "MPAA". -
The PreShow Experience addon for Kodi. It's the #1 "wow factor" when someone sees it in action for the first time -- trivia, intros, trailers, Philips Hue lighting control. It creates a very unique home theater experience.

I picked ADX because they were the best price / performance at the time. Powered with a Dayton Audio SA230 amp. Best price / performance transducer now would have to be the Dayton Audio BST-300EX Extreme. Requires a beefier amp though like the SA1000.
-
Favorite unique piece of hardware would have to be the 4 x ADX Maximus tactile transducers installed to the seating. You dont just hear the movie. You feel it.

My JVC X790 projector is behind the first row and just above the second row. I set it about 12 feet back from lens to screen to allow a 10-foot screen at the shortest throw to maximize brightness. If I ever need to replace it I'll likely get a JVC NZ500 and set it about 16 feet back to accommodate a 10-foot screen at the longest throw to maximize contrast (it'll be plenty bright).

I've sometimes used an audio format bumper on occasion.

A growing collection of over 1000 new and improved logos for the MoviePosterApp to refresh your digital movie poster with a pop of color. Many studio logos are now also double the resolution to look their best on 4K displays. Also included are colorized audio logos, new resolution logos, new aspect ratio logos and updated higher-res MPAA ratings. To use, just unzip the file and move the Aspect Ratio, Audio, MPAA, Resolution and Studio folders to the corresponding folder located in Images > Themes > Default > Logos of your MoviePoster App directory (if you're not using the Default theme just put them in your customized theme folder instead). Suggestions are welcome!

Actually all you need is a free graphics program called Gimp to make your own customized banners. Once installed go to File > New and for the image size enter either 2160 x 200 (to create a UHD banner) or 1080 x 100 (to create a HD banner) and before clicking OK I'd recommend to select Advanced and change Fill With: Background color to Fill With: Transparency. Then select OK and start experimenting with adding hardware logos and/or text. Be sure to Export As a PNG file once done. Attached are two examples that I've made to replace the default Coming Soon and Welcome banners. https://www.gimp.org/downloads/

FYI - I've made a ton more logos and have now even began making them in higher resolution to maximize the quality on 4K screens. When I see any movie poster missing the studio logo I'll make a note, review the poster NFO to get the studio name and keep making more. The "official" release can be found here. My only issue is sometimes the studio name has a slash "/" in it on the NFO file and I'm not sure how to accommodate the logo filename in order to pull up and display the logo for that poster. Out of the hundreds I've looked at I've found 5 of these so far.

I had this happen to me once. Turns out my Kodi HTPC was turned off and it was trying to connect. Make sure Kodi is on and that it can connect to it. Also, if you overwrote your current install with this I wonder if the configuration file in the kodi / xbmc plugins directory is pointing to the wrong IP address? Check that also and update to your IP address if necessary.
