How to watch Kodi movie trailers from movie addons?
This is one of the easiest ways to watch movie trailers on Kodi. Whenever you use a Kodi movies addon, you can bring up the context menu for the movie you are watching by right-clicking over the media item. You can also long-press it if you are using a touchscreen. Depending on the addon, the option for watching Kodi movie previews might be located in different menus. As an example, here's where to find the option on Exodus movie addon, Velocity Kodi addon and SALTS addon for Kodi.
On Exodus, You Can Right Click Your Movie, Select Information, And Then Click The Trailer Button.
If You Are Using Kodi Salts Addon, Simply Right-Click Your Movie And Select Play Trailer.
With The Velocity Kodi Addon You Can Right Click And Select Play Trailer, Or Click The Show Information Button, And Then The Trailer Button.
A word of advice: using this option on some addons might bring foreign-language trailers instead of English ones. If this happens, simply use another addon, or try again later when a more recent trailer version has been linked to the movie item.
Similarly, I was able to watch the trailers of some movies I had on my system. All you have to do is bring up the context menu via right-click or long-press on your media item, and then select the Trailer option.
