martinconroy Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 Would be awesome to have a summary for some of the "main" platforms. i.e. I use a shield too, so would be great to have a guide for that. i.e. which RA cores to install, and an androidcom.xml to match. I'm not being lazy - I would love to work this all out myself, just limited on time atm - sorry! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When i get round to playing with this and launchbox properly i will chip in on what works for shield and see if i can find any additions to the xml. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trailers are available for all platforms. please make sure you are running the latest version by downloading my repository, also it looks for video snaps under LaunchBox\videos\platform name\game name.mp4 so also make sure there are video snaps available and they are in the standard LaunchBox naming structure. the other thing you need to check is if your theme actually supports this. funny enough i could not find the trailer button on the aeon nox theme. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krait Rosado Gaming Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 (edited) Hi dude! Last night I was fighting hard to watch those trailers on kodi but no luck....... ( I have changed theme/skin: Titan, Estuari, Aeon Nox...) What sort of View are you using men? what is the name of the view in kodi? there are a lot of, but none of then works trailers. Last thing I did. Reinstall Kodi to nghly build but nothing happened. You said something about how to get the key on Aeon nox tooo dificult. Do you know any theme that plays the trailer inmediatly on select? Thank you Edited June 13, 2017 by FFiend CluBB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you hey I think you are misunderstanding. this program does not replace any theme elements. this will provide the theme with the data it needs. so in short, the video snap will not automatically play unless it is build that way by the theme. to access the trailer you would do it the same way you play trailers on movies. right click on the game or press c on your keyboard (this will bring up a context menu) go to information sorry in recent versions ok kodi information is not available in the context menu. you need to press i on your keyboard or the button that corresponds to information on your controller. click on trailer.

slacker Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 I might be thick, but how do I run this on, for example, LibreELEC (thinking of linux support) as it needs the path to the BigBox.exe file? Or is it possible to have a frontend for LibreELEC and just use retroarch to launch the games? That'd be perfect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I added a new colum to the sql database. so it is vital that you run the update database, I would recommend deleting the database under Kodi\userdata\addons\plugins.video.bigbox\database.db 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
