this is the code that needs to be added

XBMC.RunScript(script.cinema.experience)


I am unsure where to add it, the HTE thread says to add it to DialogVideoInfo.xml but for Alaska I'm only finding that string in DialogButtonMenu.xml so I added below this string


<onfocus>Dialog.Close(movieinformation)</onclick>

When I highlight a movie and hit info I'm not seeing the HTE option. What am I doing wrong here?

Don't worry I'm adding support for it 'out of the box' so you wont need to edit anything.

Just committed the latest version (1.9.9) which will launch the Cinema Experience script when you press Play on the Video Info screen.

NICE addition! I have a question for you Hitcher, I added music to the trivia mode and when it plays the song the album cover + track info pops up in the lower left corver. I know that's how it's supposed to work, but is there any easy way to disable it just for this one section? I'm thinking probably not but I suck at XML beyond real basic stuff so maybe I'm wrong?

So without disabling Cinema Experience is there a way to simply play the movie without the Experience. I couldn't find a way as if it is enabled both Play straight from the library as well as play from the info screen run the script. I ended up disabling the addon as my family does not always want the experience.

It definitely doesn't launch it straight from the movies list only from the info screen.

Sorry, of course you are correct. I was testing so many things at once that I forgot to actually try it from the Movie list. It works as expected.

I must be doing something wrong. I've got Cinema Experience installed and configured and it runs if I select it from add-ons (of course without playing the movie).

If I highlight a movie and select the movie information screen form the pop-up menu and from that screen press PLAY, Cinema Experience does NOT play.

Is there something I'm missing?
