First of all thanks for this amazing add-on. It has worked like charm.
Only issue I have is with trailers. First I tried to set up priority to play Itunes trailers, but for some reasons most of those trailers were either featurettes on making of movie or some b-grade movies which I have never heard of. After testing it out for a while, I switched to having KodiDB as priority which works well but it only plays trailers of movies that I already have in my library. Which is fine but not optimal. Because i have some old B/W movies too and those trailers don`t look good. I was wondering if it is possible to play couple of trailers of new mainstream movies in HD, then couple of trailers of movies in my library, but only if trailer is available in HD? So is it possible to restrict Kodi DB trailers only to trailers available in at least 720p or above? Also is it possible to have 2 different trailer module play 2 different kind of trailers? Like one module only playing trailers from library and other only playing of movies that are coming soon?
Then I was reading about how to make a text file into a .CVURL file with a link of youtube trailer and play that as a video. But so far i have failed in doing so. I have made a text document with a youtube link. Then changed the ext to .CVURL and put it in trailer directory of CV. In CV settings I tried to set up trailer source as Directory and then also added the path to that directory. But it does not play any trailer anymore. Then I tried to make source file, and put in exact path of .CVURL file. But it still does not play it.
So what I am doing wrong? How to fix it?
