With 1.0.2 when I press escape the screen starts to flash instead of skipping the trivia. The trivia music keeps going but the script no longer runs. I tried 2 different skins to make sure it wasn't a skin problem. Running Dharma RC2.

does exactly the same for me running a nightly build from the 12/12.... and so i just leave trivia disabled in order for script to run but would really like this bug to be fixed (if possible i will give as much debug info as poss)

through a little bit of trial and error, its either the audio playlist for slides that is causing the problem or the trailer outro video...... turn both of those settings off and the script works fine with no flashing slides

EDIT - Its the playlist option... set as a m3u playlist and when tring to get past trivia, music volume increases to 100% and trivia slides flicker. No music = no flicker!

this script should not be third party, would be great if it was apart of the main branch hope mjaybe it can become a patch in the future

Good find, if I set the trivia music to an mp3 and not a playlist it works fine.

I've downloaded trailers in .mov formats, and set the addon to the folder with the trailers in it. For some reason, it skips the trailer part.

Do they have to be a specific format?

I also download to a folder which I have created in my home directory. I use the apple-lite addon for downloading them. The add-on for apple-lite gives you the options of where to save and also to add .nfo file and will rename trailer with -trailer on end ....example

The Green Hornet-trailer.m4v
The Green Hornet-trailer.nfo
The Green Hornet-trailer.tbn

All the files are created in my trailer folder. The Home Cinema Experience picks all these trailers up fine.

As for the format I do believe any format will play as long as the trailer name ends with -trailer. I could be wrong though. Good Luck
