Hi Community,
I have noticed that in the case one has both a poster.jpg and a thumb.jpg image locally stored wihtin a Tv Show folder , when scanning the tv show to the library the ListItem.Icon refers to the thumb.jpg and not the poster.jpg. In the case that only a poster.jpg exists in the tv show folder the ListItem.Icon refers to the poster.jpg.
Here is an example of the type of images I am talking about: (1st: TV Show Thumb 2nd: Tv Show Poster
There is no mention of any thumb.jpg in the wiki : http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=XBM...r_Frodo.3F
I am developing a skin and using the ListItem.Icon for tv show views, and Metadata fetchers like MetaBrowser automatically store thumb.jpg images when scrapping for content. So if any user has a thumb.jpg stored, they would not see their Poster beeing displayed.
Since a thumb.jpg is not mentioned in the wiki, Shouldn't xbmc actually ignore the thumb.jpg. Is This Issue known? Is this a wanted behaviour?
any clarification on this issue would be great, I need to know if I have to code my skin to ignore thumb.jpg for poster views.(in case
Thanks
