Trailers from Youtube/iTunes scraper not working

[WiseMMO 0]

Hello, I'm new here.

I created this account because I need to figure out a way to fix this really frustrating issue with CinemaVision, and considering the issue is related to the very reason CinemaVision is intended it's really unnerving.

I run a scene with 2 cinematic intros of THX and Dolby Atmos, and then I've set up 3 trailers running from the iTunes scaper (Even tho it required me to install YouTube), now, what's unnerving me is that 90% of the times the trailers just won't work. I've set them up to 1080p quality, it's not an internet issue because I can stream 1080p and 4k just fine from YouTube itself and also the iTunes trailers website. So IT MUST be either Kodi or the add-on script.

The problem is that 90% of the times, they just stop playing, they go into buffering and they don't come out of buffering, and if they do, miracolously, it's not synced and the video still shows buffering issues, going faster than the audio and problems as such.

I've seen another post about this created in October last year, with no resolution so I wanted to create another thread so we can figure out what's causing this and if I have to lay my keyboard warrior weapons down and just watch a movie without the trailers (hopefully not).

I'm not about to download trailers, so streaming them is the optimal solution here.

Thank you very much.

I'm guessing this is the issue? 

 

"11:48:52.386 T:8488  NOTICE: CVideoPlayerAudio::Process - stream stalled"

 

EDIT: Or at the very least a solution would be that it downloads trailers before it starts playing it, inside a folder I decide, then it plays them and I can pick a function that makes Kodi delete the downloaded trailers after watch.

I too have had the same problem with iTunes trailers that just stop playing during a sequence and buffering constantly. It really does ruin the experience. Now bare in mind, I do download my trailers to a folder, or several folders actually for each genre and to be honest, I like it better that way because I have more control over everything and also because the quality is better with 5.1 sound. The only thing I need, which is a feature I have been asking for quite some time as well, is that the trailers I download to be able to read the movie feature genres and play the appropriate trailers for that particular movie based off the genre which is something Cinema Experience could do and I loved it. iTunes has been very inconsistent for me with the constant buffering (I have very fast internet as well; 100 Mbps). Any insight on of if any this will be included in a future update and how we can fix the iTunes trailers issue?
