Question: is there a way to enable FANART for each genre? IE: when I goto the Genre screen and scroll through the icons for each genre - would like to have a specific fanart show up behind as I change. Right now I have the multi-image backgrounds showing up - or nothing if I select "hide fanart" for the view setting. Having not been a 2.0 user for long - not sure if this was part of 2.0 or not. I did see mention of it in threads for other skins.
Similar question for YEARS - can you specify a folder to pull icons from?

great... thanks... one question thou... will artwork organizer update each time i do a content update? (new movies etc)

no. only service addons are able to do something like that. artwork organizer is not, as far as i know.

special://skin/extras/genre/video/fanart/genrename.jpg
special://skin/extras/year/video/fanart/2012.jpg (this one only after a fresh git pull)

Genre Fanart works nicely...definitely need to edit the .nfo files...I have 4 different "flavors of "sci-fi".
For the Year - was looking to add the icons/covers - will your update pull in covers or backgrounds? Sounds like backgrounds - while I have a set of those...was just going to use the icons myself.
And the git pull will install yet another version of the skin correct? Is there a graceful way to determine which files I should/need to copy over from the current 3.0 folders?
RE: [WIP] Aeon Nox 3.0 - phil65 - 2012-04-13 21:42
no, we won´t add any pictures, would increase skin size too much.
only added background for year, icons do not make too much sense i think.
git pull will merge all new changes into your skin directory. (this assumes that you downloaded the skin via git clone of course)

Is it possible to get a "Files" Menue Point like the one under the "Videos" Section in the "TV Shows" or "Movie" Section?
RE: [WIP] Aeon Nox 3.0 - phil65 - 2012-04-13 22:15
you have the possibilty to setup custom items in those submenus.

Sorry, what I meant was I was going to use them - didn't mean adding them to the skin

None of the view types for YEAR actually show much if anything of the background though...they do all show the icon/cover (currently all blank of course). IMO the views for YEAR are all overkill - I got used to using just a simple list - anybody else got any creative (but simple) ideas?

I had downloaded and installed from a zip - which probably explains why I have a completely new skin folder - where can I find info on doing it differently?

No it can't do it automatically (as of yet), I just run it once in a while. If you have hundreds of fanarts, chances of seeing the new fanart is slim anyway.

@phil65 - found the errors in the genre view-type. I'm listing the views and options that are NOT working - and what I saw in the log file - everything else was ok.
LIST
- with ROUNDED COVERS disabled - no icons are displayed and no errors the log file
-
WALL
- with SHOW TITLE disabled - the view is pulling icons in from the icons folder in \genre\MUSIC\icons\ folder instead of VIDEO (fanart pulls from the correct location)
- with SHOW TITLE enabled - no icons are dispayed and no errors in the log - so looks like it's not trying to pull any icons in? (fanart pulls from the correct location)
TRI PANEL
- DARKEN switch doesn't change anything
DVD CASE
- DARKEN switch doesn't change anything
SHOWCASE
- DARKEN switch doesn't change anything
Seems like the DVD CASE is the only view that works if the user's fanart is similar to mine (centered icon & text). Showcase ends up hiding the center graphic since it displays larger icons.
Example of DVD CASE view:
![[Image: Capture-1.jpg]](http://i1074.photobucket.com/albums/w420/puulima/Capture-1.jpg)
Nothing earth shattering here...but hope this helps.
BTW: Now I understand why I was scratching my head last night - I was using the WALL view for most of the evening - and had nothing in the music folder - so saw nothing until I saw the log error and copied the VIDEO icons to music - then I switched views and could see the icons (which do pull form the correct folder on all other views).
