Gametrailers

hi
i thought it was my own bandwidth problem. but its nice to hear the script is working for you. i had some files played flawlessly but recently there's been some skipping.

things to do:
1) add a download option (will take most of flash work, heh sorry)
2) some parsing errors, the title contains <br> etc

i used your first version of the scripts and watch almost al the trailers and had only 1 time some skipping. it's just a great script! thnx

but your link gametrailers2.rar doesn't work. also in the second link of xbox-scene forum the link of chilin_dude is script version 1 and not 2..

pm/mail me, i can host the gametrailers2.rar for you if you want..

think it works by accessing the site first. i did email you the file, (filenames different but essentially same)

erm, well, changes:
1) placement of pictures, buttons
2) added playback of downloaded clip
3) addded download'/stream dialog

well, report if any bugs, basic functions should work Smile

i have almost exhausted things to add, so do let me know if you me to change anything etc. i might add the alphabetical listings, thinking of the best of implementing it, might use the virtual keyboard. :lookaround:

gametrailers2 works half for me. when i start it up i get download failed
after five times pressing ok i get the trailer screen without the background i can watch the trailers.
what should i change in gametrailers.py to see the background
my path is
/e/apps/xbmc/scripts/gametrailers2/gametrailers.py

oh try installing to /e/apps/xbmc/scripts/gametrailers/

alternatively, modify the path in the script. look for the line:

root_dir = "q:\\scripts\\gametrailers\\"

in your case it will be

root_dir = "q:\\scripts\\gametrailers2\\"

im not sure whether its case sensitive

drakenbaby666 · 2004-12-11 01:53

from my python script

Quote:self.addcontrol(xbmcgui.controlimage(0,0,int(720*self.x),int(480*self.y), root_dir + "background.jpg"))
self.list = xbmcgui.controllist(int(211*self.x), int(100*self.y), int(450*self.x), int(350*self.y))

nope don't touch that.

Quote:action_pause = 12
action_stop = 13
action_next_item = 14
action_prev_item = 15

root_dir = "q:\\scripts\\gametrailers\\"
# root_dir = "d:\\downloads\\xbmc\\scripts\\gametrailers\\"

edit that root_dir instead. the root_dir is accessed not only for the background. so please change it instead.

drakenbaby666 · 2004-12-11 03:22

why is this root_dir = "q:\\scripts\\gametrailers\\"
i don't see a q:\\

q = xbmc's homedir. a virtual mapping
