Does this not work properly with 9.11? I unzipped it and copied a few images to the cd folder with the name "artist-album.png" when I first select a song from the album I see the correct image spinning as a small icon in the upper left corner, but when I go to the main menu. I just see the cd cover from my ID3 tag and no spinning cd, not even the default one. What am I doing wrong here? I'm running the straight 9.11 download from the front page of xbmc.org

Did you get your Laptop back yet ?

I have to set the Visualization from the Music menu to either Waveform or Milkdrop. THEN in the home menu when playing a mediafile, it takes 1min and the viz is visible. BUT, from here I have to change the visualization to "None" to see the fanart.
And when the media stops playing, and I start another one... I have to do this procedure again to show fanart!Why's this?
Also, it would be nice to see this fanart and cd spinning in homemenu.
I have the same problem. Anyone knows how to change this?

Ok random problem - with no fanart everything is fine (black screen). If I try to show fanart though, the whole visualisation only takes up one quarter of the screen, instead of being fullscreen. Any idea what's going on?
And btw, this mod is awesome

Hey guys - would someone mind telling me how to get it to read fanart and cd art from the source folder? It doesn't seem to do it by default yet?

reaven Wrote:first the cd art need to be .png with no background that means restless heart.png after you edit it the art.
structure would be like
Aeon/media/backdrops/artist_fanart/<artist/band name>/
files inside <artist/band name folder>
cd.png
fanart images whatever name/whatever extension(.jpg, .jpeg, .png, ......)
hope that helps
