Hi all, I am having trouble playing local trailers in Kodi. I grew tired of the youtube app in kodi constantly breaking, so I looked for an alternative route and discovered trailarr. I have now set up trailarr and have local trailers for most of my movies and shows. The first thing I had to do was get the trailer .nfo's updated to show local trailers. All of my NFO's were <trailer>plugin: //plugin.video.youtube/?action=play_video&videoid=Qy5****</trailer> and from my understanding I had to change them to <trailer>I: /TV Shows/Family Guy/Family Guy-trailer.mkv</trailer>
I have a LOT of media so I had the AI make me a script to do it for me. Once that was done I noticed for the shows jellyfin was turning them back into youtube trailer links. I'm not really sure what in jellyfin is doing it. I narrowed it down to the TheMovieDB as a suspect so I unticked it under Libraries --> Shows.
The trailers work fine from inside the jellyfin browser although I cant see any way to indicate where it is playing from (Youtube or local). I then went to Kodi with a disabled youtube addon and tried to play a movie trailer and it works perfectly (Playing local trailer) But for some strange reason the shows dont see the trailer. There is no trailer button there.
Does anyone have any experience in this or know whats gone wrong?
