Imaginos is right.
there is no images for tvshow at Playing level, just the episode thumb

I request this a few weeks ago
http://trac.xbmc.org/ticket/6607

is not the same but instead of
Code:
VideoPlayer.clearArt
it would be better
Code:
VideoPlayer.path
that way you will get more possibilities to do other things not just pull the clearArt.

great stuff. one question - if the show's name is in hebrew and i change the image to match the hebrew name - it still doesn't show - is there anything that can be done?

thanks a lot

if the name in the .nfo is the same as the clearart filename it suppose to show, whats the name of the show in hebrew and whcih name you have in the tvshow.nfo

So the other option aside from waiting for the devs is to parse the title removing spaces and punctuation and the such.

and the problem is that xpath functions don't work in the skin, so we cannot use thing like substring-before() and the others...

I Add a toggle in the settings page now I can choose from clearArt or the regular one

before you told about
Code:
showart/$INFO[VideoPlayer.TVShowTitle].jpg
I was using substring but as you know it was a control for each show!!!

the tvshow.nfo title is in hebrew for example weeds - העשב של השכן, so i've named my clearart העשב של השכן.png but it doesn't show. if i edit the name of the show in the xbmc to weeds and rename the clearart to weeds.png - it works.

in xbmc the show name in the screen is in english not in hebrew ? if that so it needs to be in english then.
