not sure how to handle this. i'm sure some of the issues some people are having are fixed, but i'm not maintaining two versions.

I alo like to wish you the best trying to keep the script running on the newer version fo XBMC. It really does provide for a WOW factor when you have friends come over to watch a movie.

I like the HTE script and use it to my satisfaction, thank you all for your efforts and support!

I have one question though. I wonder if it is possible to have the script search the selected movie in the Apple Movie Trailers database and stream it's trailer. And/or maybe plays the local trailer if that's available.

Is this possible?

So, the newest version of HTE that is in the SVN Repo doesn't work? Is there a link to an older version? I've sat for the last like hour or so trying to get whichever one is currently there working and it doesn't seem to do anything whatsoever when I try to run it.

Thanks

Edit: I got it to work with the edited DialogVideoInfo.xml file (for Confluence), I hoped to have it working for Aeon though.

Nuka is this THE new version of your script?

I would say no. Corky is no more here thank goodness. I will throw together a big pack here pretty soon and give the link to my thread in the supplemental tool section. Since the forum crashed a lot of links on it are gone and I dont remember what I had put in it. I know Nuka was going to link to my pack once the new script is done and in XBMC.


- Nuka1195 - 2010-04-06 06:48

the version in the svn is not the newest.

if someone cared to post more info on what isn't working, with a debug log, maybe i can fix it if it's a simple fix.

I think everything I needed to works in the current one. I just know you said you were rewriting it. I was just curious to see if you added anything to it. One thing I would like to see is instead of only allowing a playlist for the music to allow it to play random tracks out of a specific directory. Then the script can create its own playlist like it doesnt for the videos.

Also I think you were going to incorporate a volume control in the plugin settings for that music. I did some settings that looked like that in the files.

Is there a way to get rid of the screen dispalying "Creating playlist" after you select the movie?

Thanks Nuka.

Hi Nuka,

Best of luck with getting the new script into XBMC - my main issue with the current version is that the viewed trailers don't seem to be marked as watched. (trailers in local folder). In addition, the script will hang XBMC if called twice in quick succession, but that's not so much of an issue as I never really do that!

Below is a post i made about it a while back with debug log. Let me know if you need a newer one. Since then I have upgraded to the latest XBMC SVN before the recent break, still with the same results from HTE.

Thanks so much - even as is, this script is a massively essential part of my HTPC smugness!

Well, there seems to be something a little screwy with my HTE script installation.

I did as you suggested and set HTE to play trailers from a test folder with only a few trailers in it.

Not only does it not seem to be setting any "watched status", but my whole XBMC hangs every second time I run the script. (I have to kill it with task manager)

Very strange....

Here's the debug log of me running HTE once, trailer not being marked as watched (I don't think) and then XBMC hanging when I try to start another movie with HTE :

If you do have time to try and identify what's going on that would be super kind of you!


If it provides any clue, one other thing that is different is that HTE will now ONLY start playing clips via the button on a movies's info screen. Previously it would also start if i selected the script from the scripts menu and pressed "Enter".

Now if I do that, the "setting up playlist" window comes and goes and then nothing happens....Confused

Thanks so much again for any help!
