How to use Season thumbs?

What skin are you using? Although all may support 'season' images, perhaps all views in the skin you are using don't.

'Simplicty' supports them

I don't use "tvshow.nfo" in my series folders. Maybe XBMC is reading the <thumb> tags in it. Delete the NFOs and try a rescan.

Currently using Aeon Nox. And I mean the Season Landscape thumbs.

Deleting the NFO and rescan didn't help. Sad

2 suggestions

Firstly have you asked this question on the Aeon Nox thread - might be the best place to get the answer your looking for. We all use different skins, and sometimes for something more specific it is better to ask in the appropriate place.

Secondly - paste a few screenshots of the problem - show what your seeing, for the most part a better form of troubleshooting in this scenario. Where do you expect to see this artwork - is it as with Simplicity as you drill down to the episodes (as in my screenshot)? - eg for that to become available in Simplicity you have to set the skin to use 'Posters instead of Banners for TV Shows' might there be a similar setting in Aeon Nox (try under System\Settings\Skin.

I have not asked this question in the Aeon Nox thread. But tell me a skin where you know that it does in fact work and I'll try it out.

As you can see it uses the season poster in landscape mode aswell.

Fairly obvious thats not the expected behaviour - be better to ask in the Aeon Nox thread about solution. I would be surprised if there is a season thumb which fits that aspect, but better to ask in the correct place

There is for landscape view

Interesting - do they have to be downloaded manually - if not where is the source?

Thanks Tobby - wasn't aware of that site (don't need or use it) - sorry can't help. Best place for your query I would suggest again is the Aeon Nox thread.

Should have read more carefully your previous post - that it was landscape season thumb issues and not just season thumbs.
