[QUOTE="Hustler, post: 58005, member: 12164"] Back in the days when i started using MediaPortal, i had some issues playing movies within MediaPortal, so i had to use an external player, Zoom Player. By using Zoomplayer, it was possible to have the player select a random video file from a specific location, and then play it before playing the actual movie itself. In my case, i have a folder packed with DTS, THX and DD trailers. So whenever i selected a movie from within MediaPortal, Zoom Player would start, play a surround trailer, and then start the actual movie, just like in the cinemas. Cool as **** imo :D My issues with MediaPortal was later resolved, so i stopped using the external player, because it also had some drawbacks, lack of GUI etc. But i really miss the surround trailer thing. So i'm hoping, having the option to grab a random video file from a specific location, and play it before the actual movie, could be implemented into MediaPortal. [/QUOTE]
