[RELEASE] Aeon MQ 3

Marcos,

Em primeiro lugar, parabéns pelo trabalho. A Aeon MQ é disparada a melhor skin para o XBMC na minha opinião.
Venho aqui também para tirar uma dúvida. Tentei inserir um ícone para arquivos sdtv em ...AppData\Roaming\XBMC\addons\skin.aeonmq.3\media\flags\source, mas sem resultado.
Poderia me passar o código e onde inserí-lo ? Desde já, muito obrigado.

Marcos,

Firstly, congratulations for your work. The Aeon MQ is in my opinion the best skin for XBMC.
I come here also to take a doubt. I tried to put an icon for SDTV files in ... AppData \ Roaming \ XBMC \ addons \ skin.aeonmq.3 \ media \ flags \ source, but without result.
Could you pass me the code and where insert it ? Thank you.

+1 - Could this be incorporated in to the skin please?

Does anyone else's volume display disappear randomly? Mine sometimes just stops showing up when I'm changing the volume and only a restart of XBMC as far as I can tell restores it.

When i click on information and go to remote thumb, its the proper image for that episode listed on tvdb.

So i guess my question, is why is xbmc not using the remote thumb for episodes? Why is the current art not only wrong for tv episodes, but it uses the wrong episode art for different episodes....?

Can anyone help its quite frustrating.

Hmmm seems like since i am using iso files at the moment for testing, an iso file will be something like Rome----->S01E01E02.iso

It will use the same episode art picture for both episodes....? But anyway if i go to get thumb, and select remote thumb, its the proper episode image thats found on tvdb.

Can anyone help? Im sure im not the only one using iso's with multiple episodes inside.

Not sure if it will work but try to rename the iso as S01E01 S01E02.iso

It could be a skin limitation, try using Confluence and see if that uses the correct thumb. I do not have any .iso's to test with here but like you say you cannot be the only one using them.
If you are using Artwork Downloader, then again, my guess would be that IT is duplicating the artwork on the basis that there is only one file "???.iso" rather than the actual episodes in the library but may be wrong! The thing here is that it downloads/caches the artwork to the Thumbnails forder and once there can only be overwritten by manually selecting different art from under the Info page.

Like with Movies I rip all my TV Shows to seperate episodes and hold all artwork locally with them, much easier to manage and hence do not have issues like this but completely appreciate it may be easier for you to work with .iso files with multiple episodes. Saying that, do you create the .iso files yourself? Are they in a DVD structure or do they just contain seperate avi/mkv files (eg. Rome S01E01.avi, Rome S01E02.avi) if the latter then you could always add the thumbs into the .iso which XBMC may pick up, i.e. Rome S01E01.tbn for the episode image and Season01.tbn for the Season poster. Not sure if it will work but may be worth a try.

Looks like your right, it seems to be the skin......I tried confluence and added a new episode of game of thrones S01E05E06.iso, and confluence applied two different episode art properly for each episode.

Ugh maybe not, at times mq3 will apply the proper individual episode art, other times it will just apply the same art for multiple episodes.


No idea whats going on... i cant reliably reproduce the problem, its hit or miss what episode art it will apply.

edit

Well i am re-adding and deleting all my shares and it seems to be correcting the issue, all i can decipher is it was not using the remote thumb for some reason..

So i guess what happened is i had renamed some files wrong and later changed it, but it was already scrapped and images stored for those files.

So if you name a tv show episode wrong, how do you clear and remove all the image cache and everything?

Not sure you can as far as I can see but if you remove from the library and update it should pick it up correctly although this does not seem to be the case, right! I assume that if you hold local art it picks it up fine but if there is no local art then it seems to find whatever it had loaded perviously for that episode irrespective if you have removed that item from the library.
Trashing the Thumbnails folder will cause more bad then good. You could try to rename the Textures6.db file then go back in to XBMC. I do know this rebuilds the clearart and logos but not sure if it handles the other art or not. It was mentioned not to delete this file a while back but when questioned why I never received a reply, anyway I have done it numerous times without ill effect.

Deleting the Textures6.db will do the job. Now I've discovered all the things I can do with Gimp, I'm in the process of redoing all my extrathumbs and typically when I go in the old ones are still there. This works for my fanart too. Done this in Movies and TV Shows.

When you first go back in, delete the Textures6.db file and any changes you make (even if you say switch the thumbs around repeatedly) will update correctly.

Next time you reopen the Textures6.db file will be reinstated and all should be good.

Cant recall the exact path to the Textures6.db file so someelse can direct you to it if you dont know where it is.

PS I'm sure this is Ok to do. Just in case I've been repeatedly lucky...I'd copy the Textures6.db file first before you delete it and save it somewhere

PPS Thank you for the latest update Marcos and for the fab skin.
