Hmmm.... that's odd. Well does XBMC make thumbs by default? The reason I ask is because all of my TV episodes have thumbs (they are all .mkv) and I know I definitely didn't make them so either XBMC made them or media companion did...

yeah xbmc makes them.

XBMC makes them for files view if they are not already there. If you are using media companion it downloads the .tbn files from thetvdb which limits the size to 400x300 max.
@hitcher
As I said, it is a work in progress. Later in development you will be able to pick the time it takes the screenshot and the size.

It's a shame XBMC doesn't make them for Library mode if there isn't one available.

I second that, not many people would put this much work into something and not expect much in return. Thanks djh.

Ya, almost hate to say it--but I wish he'd charge something.. Feel bad taking something this pretty for free. But I'll go ahead and do it
Hope it's plex friendly, run into a couple skins that havent been lately now.
DJH, if you need plex testing in march, lemme know

Duncan did have a link to a charity on the old site if you felt like donating something.

Yeah, there is already a feature request on trac to use the autogenerated thumb in library if one is not already there. I am not really sure what size the autogenerated thumbs are and I know that you get no choice as to when the thumb is captured. That is why I am really looking forward to billyad improving his thumbnail generator.

I can not wait for this beautiful skin to be running on my htpc! I can not believe the amount of work put in to build something this beautiful! I will keep checking back to see the new updates!
