Playing trailers before your movie selection?
« on: April 20, 2020, 04:25:21 pm »

Hi there,
Is there a setting or integration/plugin that JRiver has to play, let's say 3 trailers (randomly selected) from the web when you click to start your movie?

Somewhat like simulating a theater?

Yes, thanks.  Not really what I was looking for I don’t think.

I haven't used it but understanding is that it is pretty flexible.

For example, for three random trailers to play, create a Smartlist that randomly selects three trailers, then play that before the main movie. You may have to import the trailer web addresses to make that work, but I'm not sure.

Ask in the main thread. If you describe exactly the sort of thing you want to do, somebody who has used it may be able to advise.
