I am a FanArt lover, like most everyone here, and want to know if you would consider allowing 1440X810 Jpg images to be uploaded. The requst is for the xbox user, like myself, that could use those as alternatives to 720 or 1080. Having 400+ movies and 70+ TV Seasons ( and wanting Music......and I guess weather FanArt too??) the systems are just running out of RAM with all the stuff the XBMC keeps up with since Atlantis released.

I don't get it...why would you want 1440x810 resolution as a fix for memory? 720 pics are smaller @ 1280x720...

I lost my head.....meant to put in 960x540......Lil high today. Sorry . I'm so laughing at myself. I got off here for a bit, fixed some Mt. Dew and thought....."WAIT!!!! Went and re-looked at my last post.....and realized what I had wrote. "Dumbass!!.....You need to sit 420 out next time." At least people are paying attention though. I'm gonna go correct that, now.

Ever since I (and others) have updated, RAM is just being drained. Never had this problem before update. Using MediaStream .95, cause it gives the least issues of all the releases. Wonder what else it could be besides all the HD FanArt?

Have you tried horizions? Very smooth, works wonderfully with all the fanart. I haven't used mediastream...

I really love some of the views ( like Roller and FanArt for Music) but I just can't seem to fall into to Horizionz like I did MediaStream. I really enjoy the "feel" of MediaStream. And since I like making Themes, I've got one lined up for MediaStream. Did you see the mock-up I posted?

Hey FourTwentySmilz,

Unfortunately, the simplest answer is gonna be, no... Big Grin 720p will be the lowest resolution we support and if you are experiencing problems since updating to the new version than obviously it's something to do with the latest version of either XBMC, or MediaStream.

Just a quick question is the scraper in 8.10/Atlantis for Xbox pointing at TMDB.org? as I seem to be having a nightmare getting all the fanart in....?

Also after a real cheesy one that I cant find anywhere! Disneys Candleshoe. Big Grin

Hey Geeba,

It is pointing to themoviedb.org but is using the old API. I believe the latest builds of XBMC are using the newer API but until a new beta is released you might continue to have some issues with getting a certain percentage of backdrops.

RE: Candleshoe, I might suggest mentioning this over here: http://forums.themoviedb.org/forum/2/mov...s-posters/
