Playing new trailers in front of playing a movie
#1
Hey guys,

I was wondering, if it is possible to play some "new" (apple) trailers in front of playing a movie!?

Before XBMC, which is running fine to perfect right now, I was using Windows 7 Media Center with MyMovies. That was not that good, because no fanarts etc. (where you have to buy for).

But there was a really cool feature. The MyMovies Connector has had the opportunity to play random trailers before playing a movie.
You can set a folder, where the most recent apple trailers are saved. For that, I used a tool, to download the latest apple trailers in 1080p and saved them to a folder called "trailers".

Then, within the MyMovies connector, I can set, how many random trailers should be played before starting the real movie.
They are beeing played then and afterwards, the movie itself is beeing started.

A sample picture of that feature from MyMovies :

This is like cinema at home! Smile

I would really be happy to have some kind of script or something, where I could set this in XBMC. So that trailers are beeing playing in front of the movie itself.

Is that possible !?

Thanks
Stefan
