Trailer Feature

Post by HomerSimpsonMedia »

I was sad to see that FenFlix got removed when I recently updated to the latest version, as I really enjoyed using it. However, I have no complaints about this new build.

I heard it’s not possible to revert, so I’m not looking to do that, but I am curious if there’s something similar to the trailer feature that FenFlix had, where pressing up would automatically play the trailer.

I loved this feature because it allowed me to quickly see what a show or movie was about in video form while browsing. The only downside was that it could cause performance issues depending on the device, but I’m running Kodi on a good enough device to take full advantage of it seamlessly. It would be great if I could do the same with this new update.


I already looked around and found an autoplay trailer option in the DiggFlix skin settings, but those options don’t seem to be working on my end. I was just wondering if I could get some clarification on how to use this feature or if there’s a similar alternative I can take advantage of in case the built-in option isn’t working.

I appreciate you taking the time to record that short video for me. I didn’t have the view setting enabled, and now I’m able to get trailers to play when browsing categories. However, I’m still not able to get trailers to play on the home screen. Please see the video below—I tried doing what you said, but I’m running into an issue where trailers won’t play on the home screen no matter what trailer settings I enable. It could just be my stupidity, so sorry if that’s the case.

I'm not sure what went wrong on my end, but after reinstalling the skin, it seems to be working now. Is there a way to watch the trailer in full screen while still staying in browsing mode, like I could on FenFlix?

Net update will include FenFlix and the other Flix builds.
