1. not really on my end. possibly a skin could run a script if Player.IsPaused not sure. any skinners have any ideas?
2. post a trac ticket feature request, for an option to not display the caching dialog for player. not something i can do now, but maybe an extra option to play that sets a property.
3. yes i agree a playlist isn't the best idea. will look at it.
4. the running of the script would run (when enabled) before any videos start. now the script could have it's own check to not execute the commands until video playing == eg the rating video, so it could dim or whatever just before the movie starts.
for outros, search torrents for what you described. and if you find some package them up for all of us. the porky pig one would be cool.
oo_void, how would i determine the rating of local trailers? maybe if you store them in rating folders. G, PG... an nfo file for each video might be too slow, so that's out.
juanflaco, when i'm done and when/if you're done with your charts (very nice) may i put them in the first post.
mccorkled are you ready for a link yet?

a link for my package? not really. I need to know if you plan on only having .avi support.

the rating videos do not have to be avi files, they just have to be named with an .avi ext. and no that won't change. yes that should be the only ones that need a specific ext. since i have to create the path to the file.

In which case, is there any chance of reverting back to HTE's old behaviour? It does look a bit jarring when the last thing you see before the trailers start is the fanart for a completely different movie
Thanks!

Played around tilll I found a way to reverse the curtains opening to look like they are closing. Added some applause as they do, then after about 5 seconds of stilll curtains.... fade to black. I am making this my feature outro, just need to find a customizable version of "that's all folks" or something similar without the company moniker if possible to be the feature outro, so it can precede the curtain closing...

what DB do I need to modify in order to get my ratings to work? I tried renaming the files but ":" isnt allowed.
Can there be subfolders for the dolby clips?
I have my main folder with "Dolby" "DTS" "Other"
In the dolby folder I have a "Dolby 5.1" folder, and a "Dolby 7.1"
In the dts folder I have a "DTS 5.1" and a "DTS 7.1"
will these work if they are grouped like this? or do they all need to be in the "Dolby" root?

I don't have the source handy and I could have been miss reading the function, but when a file is selected, it appears to scan the metadata. If the data is on the tail of the file, like ID3 within MP3's it wouldn't be that slow. Then again, this would only work well if one had Apple sourced trailers with the metadata intact and probably too much of an edge case to justify the effort. Oh well ...
It would probably be more effective to do something within the scope of one of the true scrapers. That would be to check and see if the file exists in the specified trailer directory (based on filename matching) and construct a local URI as opposed one pointing towards the Apple site should the file exist.

oo_void, I wrote that Apple Trailer Downloader script. Give me a few days and I should be able to update it to sort them in to rating folders if that what Nuka wants to do.
I could also build .nfo files for the trailers if that's what he'd like to do.

Well, fancy meeting you here then.
Thanks a lot for the script! I've added it to my nightly processes on my Windows box and it's working great. If I'm feeling adventurous this weekend, I'll try and get it up an running on one of my Linux servers.
