  1. My three are (in no particular order): National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation A Christmas Story Scrooge (1970) I hope they release a 4K for Scrooge some day! Edit: What makes a movie — any movie — a “Christmas movie” for me is whether or not the backdrop of the film takes place during the holidays (and there’s the occasional scene that includes Christmas lights or a Christmas tree or Christmas music). Yes, I consider Die Hard and even the recent Netflix film “Carry-On” both Christmas movies. Other notable mentions would be Gremlins, The Sound of Music, The Long Kiss Goodnight.
  2. The Conjuring films are my favorites. They're a must watch imho for October. And January, March, July and August. 😁
  3. The resolution of the slides are high, but when they're shown on PreShow Experience they're a lower resolution? If yes, that is not normative. You've double checked that the files in the PSE library that are being used are in fact high resolution?
  4. Submitted mine. My answers were typical usage, but on occasion I've been known to use additional modules like Audio Format, Outros, Courtesy, Countdown. I haven't tried the Loop module yet. I also have specific genre-based sequences for horror films and certain sci-fi films.
  5. I'm using an HTPC with Windows 10.
  6. I have Arctic Zephyr Reloaded installed on Kodi 21 and PreShow Experience shows in the context menu.
  7. I meant on Kodi (not the App).
  8. If you long press a title does it bring up a menu? Is PreShow Experience not an option near the bottom of the list?

    It will use Kodi's built in videoplayer by default. If you don't have an external player intentionally configured then you're OK.

    Hmm, try another skin. I use Arctic Zephyr Reloaded and am able to upload logs (using a Windows 10 PC with Kodi 21 Omega).

    It may sound trivial, but make sure the movie contains chapters as well. You'll also need to make sure you're playing video with Kodi's built-in videoplayer (and not an external player for videos).
  12. I use Yatse on my Android phone.
  13. I skip Trivia with Page Up on the keyboard. I use local trailers without any issues. I don't get the "Working" pop up between each video. Other issues don't affect me either. Bottom line is with some skin/settings tweaking it should be working the way you like in no time.
  14. Yes, shows on mine. Some skins may need you to enable chapter markers.
  15. Is there a reason why you want to use an action file to play/pause and not the remote (or phone/keyboard)?
  16. Working for me. My primary sequence is: Dim Hue Lights For Trivia > Trivia > Trailers Intro > Dim Hue Lights For Trailers > 4x Trailers (in local folder) > Feature Presentation Intro > Hue Lights Off > Movie
  17. I haven't updated PSE on my Windows 10 HTPC since (I think) 0.2.0 as I only download trailers locally currently and that works well for me so far. I'm waiting on a 0.2.6 release before updating.
  18. I installed Kodi 21 this evening (Windows 10) and PSE seems to be working well. 👍
  19. Do you know if PSE support was officially added to this skin? I tried it on my Shield (with the latest nightly of Omega Beta 2) and it looks quite nice.
  20. Buffering built-in this one via the services settings. This is especially useful for those streaming via wifi.
  21. Anybody using v21 beta 1 on Windows with PSE?
  22. I now use an external player (MPC-BE for madVR and with refresh rate switching enabled) to play all MKV files (my entire movie library is MKV only). I have Kodi set up to play all other file types and since trailers I've downloaded have always been MOV or MP4 the internal Kodi player would play those (with refresh rate switching disabled in the settings). Works perfectly for my setup.
