International Cinema Listings plugin version 5.0 (for PVRX2)

[rbelisle]

I did copy it as well... no change. All I am doing is closing the UI (PVRX2) and restarting to test. Just making sure that I am doing the right thing to test.

OK, looks like it's a bug - will look into it. Thanks for your patience.

I'm gone for the weekend, but I'll check when I'm back next week.

Use the Config utility, Plugins tab, then highlight the plugin and then click the settings button.

I just wished they would list the Barrhaven Odeon.

While you may not be able to get the information from the Fandango site, you can enter it as a Fandango code (even though I used zap2it to find it) and the movie information will show up in the plugin. I tried it and it works.

I've recently installed ICLP 5.0, and can successfully view theatres and films from within PVRX2. The trailers are also downloaded successfully, but when I select 'Trailer' inside PVRX2, I get a blank screen for a second or two, and then I'm back to the film listing. I have QuickTime Alternative installed, and the trailers will play properly in the Quicktime viewer if launched outside of PVRX2.

Are there any config settings required in ICLP or in the QuickTime Alternative to allow trailers to display within PVRX2?

Thanks!

If you add the trailers directory as a folder in GB-PVR's Video Library screen can you play them from there?

Looks like I can't view them through the Video Library either, as the same thing happens (black screen, then back to the Video Library list. I'm suspecting something in the Quicktime Alternative setup isn't playing nice with GB-PVR and my limited video card. Strange that the .mov files play fine outside GBPVR though...

QuickTime DirectShow filter: allows you to play QuickTime content in all DirectShow enabled players.

This bit is what is nedeed for GB-PVR. link

Strange that the .mov files play fine outside GBPVR though...

It may be using a different mechanism to play them. GB-PVR uses a Windows feature called direct play. I don't really know enough about codecs etc to give you much more useful help. All I can recommend is looking for a DirectShow .mov codec. Also, I found installing anything Apple; like iTunes, Quicktime player or browser plugins seemed to screw with Quicktime Alternative, a re-install fixed it for me.

edit: Just tried to play a trailer on a fresh install of the plugin and QuickTime Alternative and it failed to play. Will look into it and report back...
