Which /xml handles fanart for video and such?

[watzen]

from wiki (http://www.xbmc.org/wiki/?title=InfoLabels):

Code:

Fanart.Image     Fanart image for the parent TV Show
Listitem.Property(Fanart_Image)     Fanart image for the selected item

[XBMCG33K]

Can that be added directly to lets say MyVideoNav.xml, or is it something I have to add to includes.xml?

[watzen]

It does not have to be in includes.xml.

[XBMCG33K]

So will this work for includes

<include name="CommonFanart">
<control type="image">
<posx>0</posx>
<posy>0</posy>
<texture>Listitem.Property(Fanart_Image)</texture>
<width>1280</width>
<height>720</height>
<aspectratio>stretch</aspectratio>
</control>

crap sorry thought you typed DOES. BRB testing now.

EDIT: No idea where to add it. any suggestions?

[watzen]

depends on where you want it..
as xbmc layers the items from top of xml to backmost layer in the UI.
If you want to have it as a background, then put it first in the xml

[XBMCG33K]

OK I added this to the beginning of the window coding:

<control type="largeimage">
<posx>0</posx>
<posy>0</posy>
<width>1280</width>
<height>720</height>
<aspectratio>scale</aspectratio>
<visible>Listitem.Property(Fanart_Image)</visible>
</control>

I now get this:

Any suggestions on what I am doing wrong?

Got it!

Not it's got working fanart just needed to change the code to <info>Listitem.Property(Fanart_Image)</info>
and rearrange the window a bit but it works!

[watzen]

where exactly have you put it?
remember that it won't show if you have something on top of it that is not transparent.
and it should be within the <controls> tags. just treat it like any other image control
