You can also use a mini PC stick for those who dont want a laptop or computer running all the time

[@zxcvbnmmasdfghjkl]

Basically was able to replicate something similar with a rpi and kodi! Hosting is done on the rpi and if a movie is playing on kodi it’s will generate the poster using the kodi json and tmdb, if there is no movie playing it will generate the upcoming movie titles from tmdb upcoming url. It’s all hosted locally with an open port, the html is coded to display now showing/upcoming. Will integrate and test other json available options for the digital poster.

[@KedrickFoster]

Nice!

[@apatel1186]

Do you have any tutorial? Any easy way to do this for Emby?

[@zxcvbnmmasdfghjkl]

So I’ve actually migrated to using Trakt, I haven’t used Emby but I am sure the process is the same if you are able to integrate Trakt with Emby you can use the Trakt api and use the continue watching or recently watched to pull in your movie posters

[@reid1boys]

Very nice. I just pulled down 2 50" Tvs from my theater room to make it have zero Tvs on the wall, only my projection screen. I was trying to figure out what to do with those Tvs, now I know what to do with one of them. Thank you.

Yeah that would be nice with a 50inch!!

No you don't need a Lan cable you can use wifi and No you can't broadcast 3 different videos from one computer .

This thing is so epic, can you make like animated posters or posters that have clips/trailers playing with the graphics of the poster and theme of the movie?

Yes, the app can display motion posters and movie trailers

[@abdurmatin]

Thank you for this awesome walk through and explaination of this program. I got everything to work now and it is wonderful I did notice one thing-there is a lag of about 2-3 minutes between what is on my laptop and what is my marquee. Is there a way I can speed this up through the settings to cut out the lag/delay Thank you again for the awesome explanation it was very helpful

[@KedrickFoster]

Are you doing it wireless?

[@richardbrown8681]

I had a problem following your directions. Please indicate the selection process and provide directions on casting. However, thanks for the video, also provide a link to see your follow-up videos,

[@KedrickFoster]

No problem, I'll do a follow up video on this.

[@dubscee6472]

Thank you so much for the tutorial!!! Would using a raspberry pi be possible for this rather than a full PC, just for economical sake. If you consider this, would you please make a tutorial as well?

[@Quiturcryin]

Great video thanks for sharing this.. Just curious do you have to have the PC running all the time if you want to Play it using Plex? Also can this somehow run through a NAS

[@KedrickFoster]

Yes unfortunately the computer has to always run, now if you have a 2 monitor setup you can run this on one monitor and do something else on the other monitor. But I would suggest using an old computer or laptop as a dedicated machine for this.

[@robt3892]

Very cool but how can i do that with a Raspberry?

[@KedrickFoster]

There is an app called poster pi, but I haven’t tried it out yet.

[@antoniocraig813]

Can you download this on chromeos cause for some reason it saying can not open file

[@KedrickFoster]

No only windows for now unfortunately.

[@taste6966]

How’s it going? I appreciate the video. I don’t have any of those plex and other things. I just have a 4K player (Samsung). Does this only work when watching a movie from your laptop or is it a way I can have it work when I’m watching physical media like movies I own on either disc or digital download on apps? Thanks

[@KedrickFoster]

No not automatically, there is a web app where you can change what’s on the screen from your phone.

Very nice !!, man, times have changed. I have the old-school back lit movie posters. Now you have forced me to upgrade!. Question, I never downloaded an app on my Laptop, only to my smart devices. Can I use my phone to download all of this? Or is that a no, because I need plex or something else?

[@KedrickFoster]

Thank you! So the movie poster app is currently only for windows unfortunately, so you would need a windows pc or laptop.

[@gregorycromwell7516]

Great Video. I do have a quick question that you may know how to answer. I installed the app last week. It downloads movie posters very well. Is there a way to display a single poster occasionally, instead of them rotating all the time? I'd like to have it snowing the poster on the screen for a movie that we plan on watching. Thanks in advance.

[@KedrickFoster]

Thank you! Yes , if you open the web remote which is located on the main settings screen, you should have access to those controls

Can this work on a virtual machine or raspberry pi?

Possibly on a virtual machine but not the raspberry pi since the software is only for windows. There is a similar app for the raspberry pi but I haven't tried it.
