Recommended Posts

Hi!

I have a 3 min Mkv clip that i would like to add to my movies as a trailer, i havent used the trailer function before and searched the forum but couldnt find a clear answer.

Is it possible to add a "generic" trailer for each movie?

And if so, how would one go about in doing so?

Is it possible to activate some "intro" function so that my family users have the possibility to skip it if they want to?

Thanx!

N.

Check out Cinema Intros plugin.

I installed it and it looks sweet, but having some troubles, and the knowledge base said there was an option for your own trailer videofile and if

i got it right i could create a folder called trailer and within that folder create a videofiole namned Trailer.MP4

And in the plugin point to that folder and wich libraryfiles it would include.

I have done all this and it doesnt work.

I have activated the show trailers option..

I wonder about the last option with "Coding..."

Wich parameters should be included there?

 

Thanx!

You don't need this option enabled, that is used if you want to play local trailers (located in each movie folder).

You probably don't have Cinema Intros activated under general Playback preferences (that is per-app setting):

Not sure what you're asking here, I would assume helper text is pretty clear of its function:

For example, if you had aac.mp4 file in Codec Intros folder and played a movie with AAC audio, codec intro would be played before the movie, otherwise for any other movie with different audio codec (example: AC-3) it wouldn't. Ditto for video codec, audio profile or any particular tag.
