  1. Updated more logos this morning, see Logos v1.4.zip above for the latest.
  2. See attachment for what I've done so far. Logos v1.4.zip
  3. No, I made some of those myself. It's easy to find transparent png logos online and resize them for the MoviePosterApp using something like Paint.net or Gimp.
  4. Instead of custom posters I've now decided to compile a folder with a selection of 1080×1920 movie-themed wallpapers to fill the screen. Only thing I had to tweak further was adding an outline to the banner text so that it was clearly legible for every screen. I think I like it. Edit: 1080×1920 wallpaper art can be found here: https://hdqwalls.com/1080x1920/movies-wallpapers/page/1
  5. Here’s how it looks after bit of tweaking. I’d like to be able to either hide or center the bottom audio / AR / resolution icons to make it looks more symmetrical but haven’t found a way to do that yet. Custom posters (eg. RoboCop) are missing all bottom icons entirely. Looks more complete when everything is populated (eg. Doctor Strange). Unfortunately development on the MoviePosterApp seems to have halted for over a year and not sure if any updates will be coming any time soon.
  6. No issues on my end that I've come across.
  7. Got it working, though in my Plugins folder it was KodiMediaInterface and not XBMCmediaInterface. I noticed the issue after realizing I suddenly had two Kodi tabs in the Settings Plugin menu. Quick question in case you know the answer. When the MoviePosterApp first loads up the original “Coming Soon” banner appears at the top of the screen briefly (and five white stars at the bottom right). I've created my own theme and am using custom banners but for the life of me I can't figure out where that original “Coming Soon” banner and the five stars are being pulled from. I’d like to get rid of it if possible. Any ideas?
  8. I’d have to say Dune. I also saw Elephant Man as a kid that left quite an impression.
  9. I believe so, but isn't it only required to view trailers?
  10. If the MoviePosterApp is already installed, what files(s) from this one should I copy and overwrite specifically in my current installation?
  11. Happy New Year, Matt!
  12. 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.
  13. The Conjuring films are my favorites. They're a must watch imho for October. And January, March, July and August. 😁
  14. 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?
  15. 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.
  16. I'm using an HTPC with Windows 10.
  17. I have Arctic Zephyr Reloaded installed on Kodi 21 and PreShow Experience shows in the context menu.
  18. I meant on Kodi (not the App).
  19. If you long press a title does it bring up a menu? Is PreShow Experience not an option near the bottom of the list?
  20. It will use Kodi's built in videoplayer by default. If you don't have an external player intentionally configured then you're OK.
  21. Hmm, try another skin. I use Arctic Zephyr Reloaded and am able to upload logs (using a Windows 10 PC with Kodi 21 Omega).
  22. 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).
  23. I use Yatse on my Android phone.
  24. 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.
  25. Yes, shows on mine. Some skins may need you to enable chapter markers.
