ok this is not great.. but AUSOME!

Got it working.

TWO questions:
1) If I update my XBMC with the latest SVN build... will I need to redo the DialogVideoInfo.xlm file again??
2) I put two differnt INTRO files in the directory Feature presentation Video/Playlist looks at
-what happens is it plays 1 of the intros 2 times before the movie
so my question is... can it only play 1 static intro?
(What I would like is to put 10 intros in that directory and have only 1 random intro play before the movie from that directory)

Thank-you in advance.

Hi!
I'm using svn version 21142 on the xbox, and when I try to run the script, I just get an "script failed" error.
Here's the log:

-changed: version -> 1.2a
-fixed: starting without a video queued resulted in a crash
*reset your settings from ver 1.0

detroitdr, the intro can only be a video or a playlist. not a folder.
if you don't want trailers use the local trailer scraper and set the setting accordingly.

OOH, i'm sure there is, maybe post in one of the modders thread and ask to suppot it. i would like that also. i get kinda lost in aeon.

feanor, fixed.

I'd love to however they are all personalized using BENDER. If you google BENDER and FOX you will come up with a tonne of information... and about 16 hours of rendering for 20sec @ 720p resolution.. HOWEVER very worth it.

To see video examples youtube FOX intro or FOX BENDER

To get rid of the flickering (yes you will get it.. you really have to read a lot of info... took me 3 days to get it right..)

Nuka1195: I have it playing 1 trailer and my intro.

1) What order is it to play the trailer vs my intro?
2) If I go into a movie Information page then press backspace to go out, then back into movie information page then use mouse button on the X.. it plays my intro 2 x.
Do it 4 times and get it playing 4 x's. So I'm not sure on the proceedure.

Thx

Nuka1195:

Ok I've installed the latest Build 21923. However now your script doesn't seem to work.

I go into Videos and highlight a movie. Right Click and select Movie Information. Then I've tried pressing back space and clicking on the X to close it.

Nothing happens now.

(I checked if the new build overwrote the DialogVideoInfo.xlm and it didn't. your code is right after the Dialog.Close(movieinformation)


EDIT: I checked for an update and downloaded 1.2a. Then I rechecked the DialogVideoInfo.xml and found that it was without the 3 added lines. Re-added and it works fine now. Thx
