I like to play downloaded film trailers using XBMC.

Is there a way to set up XBMC to automatically play the next trailer like you can do with music files? It breaks the flow when you have to keep selecting the next trailer to play when the current one finishes.

TIA

One very cumbersome way to do it would be to simply name the files so that they would stack, ie, "Movie Trailer 1.mov," "Movie Trailer 2.mov," etc.

Dunno if there's a proper way to set up a playlist for video files in xbmc.

Y button to add to playlist. (Y on the folder will add all files in it to the playlist)

Blackbutton to enter playlist view. (And black button to exit again)

Hey I didn't know you can do that. That makes life so much easier.

Got it. I just keep getting more impressed with this.

Now all I need is the Pearl and Dean footage with some cheesey 70's restaurant  adverts and maybe some kiora and hot dog ones too - then the classic cinema experience is complete.

:D
