-
cinema-focus.pngcinema-nofocus.png1111111350Dialog.Close(MovieInformation)RunScript(script.cinema.experience,movieid=$INFO[ListItem.DBID])Container.Content(Movies) + Skin.HasSetting(CinemaScript_MovieInfo)

You may see the Full Screen video show up for a split second(or longer) but the video should not play, then the script will take over.
