Trailers Not Working as Expected

Question

Hi,

Running the official KODI version, trailers ONLY play from the KODI dB, and never from content folder or iTunes. I’m using the default 2d sequence. I have it set in the addon settings to play 6 trailers, and only KODI trailers (trailers I have stored next to my movies) are played.

Also on random occasions when trailers are playing, it will start playing a movie instead of the next trailer. It’ll start randomly somewhere in a movie. There’s no errors in the logs either.

Hey @leejk! Could I get you to post a full debug log the next time this happens to you?

I reset the KODI db and I've not seen this happen again with it starting to play a random movie in the trailer playback stage.

However, trailers are still an issue. Originally I had the content folder, KODI DB, and iTunes selected for trailer scraper sources. Every time it always played trailers from the KODI DB, so I enabled only the iTunes scraper. That forced it to finally play iTunes. I then enabled the content folder scraper, for which I have about 16 trailers downloaded, but it stilled played only iTunes trailers. I then enabled only the content folder scraper, and then it played no trailers during the default 2d sequence. I'm testing this on a new KODI install.  I'm not seeing any errors in the log, so what would cause this?
