You should see that I had the newest build installed and the system misfired. Then I uninstalled the new build and reinstalled the current release build and reran the same sequence, which worked properly. I hope this is useful. (FYI, this isn't about getting MY system to work. It's about trying to help with the overall process. )

Best,

I am assuming you need to make a python script first right? If so does anyone have any demo scripts you'd like to share?

Let's see if this one works: http://pastebin.com/UUpUp7HD

One, can you launch from a dvd and not a stored video file while using CE?

Quote:Second, is it possible to use video clips and still slides for the trivia?

cult Wrote:Hi everyone!

I wanted to chime in with a huge thanks for putting this add-on together, I think it's the best part about XBMC and its impressed everyone I've had over viewing it.

I did have an issue though with the add-on that I was hoping someone might be able to help me resolve. I have all of my files (stills, trailers, ratings files, etc.) located on a seperate drive to save space on my C: drive, however I can't get the add-on to create the playlist from the files under that path name to be able to use the add-on.

After spending a great amount of time trying to troubleshoot the issue, I've determined that the add-on is looking at the %User%\AppData\Roaming\XBMC\Cache directory under my user folder to create the playlist. After creating a similar folder structure that I have on my other drive with identical files after placing the files under the Cache directory, the add-on seems to function the way that it should. But unfortunately this is not going to work for me in the long run because all of the trailers will eventually consume my C: free space.

I've pasted two log files below from Pastebin with the working log from my cache directory:

http://pastebin.com/NKewQyN2

and the non-working log file from when I remove the folder structure from my cache directory:

If anyone has any ideas on anything that I might be able to try, please let me know - I am completely out of ideas.... Thanks!

giftie Wrote:The script should not access the "cache" folder unless you specify it to use it. Though XBMC will use the "cache" folder when it needs to, ie store files there temporarly. I notice you are using version 1.0.46 on a Dharma 10.1 version of XBMC, this version was untested on Dharma(although you have ) I see one error popping up in the log file you submitted. The dharma_code.py is missing 'import os' at the start of it, if you add this the script may function correctly.

Also, XBMC needs to be in Debug mode for the script to log all the information(normal log is quite bare on purpose) I need to make a fix for Dharma on the version I am working on(1.0.47 right now)

cult Wrote:lol, thanks giftie - cant believe i didnt notice that this add-on wasn't meant for 10.1 yet. i went through and created a full debug log (didnt realize too that it was off) in case you wanted to take a look:

http://pastebin.com/ufHGEx4M

basically whats happening is that the sequence should go the way i have it set up:

stills > theater intro > coming attractions intro > trailers > feature presentation intro > ratings vid > movie

instead the stills work fine but then it skips everything else and jumps straight to the movie. but you could probably tell all that by looking at the log anyway

i'm not too familiar with python scripting but ill see if i can dig around for some steps on how to insert the "insert os" into the script. maybe it might be a safer approach for me to just wait until 1.0.47 so I don't break something else lol
