Deleting the cache wont do anything as those images aren't stored in the thumbnails folder.

Then maybe it was something that happened when it updated to 1.16, your guess is as good as mine. It's weird how poster mode still works, even more strange is how it works in portable mode. But I'm not the expert skinner here you are so I'm just going to have to guess since nobody else except 1 person has mentioned this. We're just having bad luck.

Poster will work because it's using the standard scraped thumbnails.

The only thing I can think of is that you've got different versions in your user folders (which are in different locations depending on your install method).

Hey Hitcher, I don't wanna be annoying, but have you considered this?

Quote:I really like what you did with the submenus, how you can add plugins there. One thing I want to do is to seperate my movie collection to several submenus (like Documentaries, Splatter movies, Movies for my gf).

Is there any possibility that smart playlists or video sources could be mapped to the submenus?

Hitcher's Could you tell me witch XML file controls the view type Square in music I cant for the life of me figure out which it is.
thanks

Noob question, how do you get fanart working under music in Alaska? I've just started adding fanart to my music as fanart.jpg but they're not showing and the "get fanart" option is greyed out on the menu too...

EDIT: Is it possible to add a "select movieset fanart" in addition to the thumb option?

I have quite a few movie sets and use EMM. When adding to XBMC though, it tends to grab the first one in the set by name, no matter what the sort title information says - for my Fast and The Furious set, for example, it uses 2F2F and for Star Wars it uses Episode I. I can't seem to figure this out so would love to be able to select the fanart as well as the thumb.

You'll need to be in Artists mode to 'Get Fanart'.

There is no 'Square' viewtype.

Thanks Hitcher, sussed it out before your post but much appreciated.

Any comment on "set movieset fanart" in addition to the thumb option - would this be straightforward? Happy to have a go myself with some guidance.
