Get "Fan Art" in the "Videos" section? Can only see in "Movies" section.
#1
Unfortunately, the "Videos" section doesn't have any views which use "Fan Art".
Only the "Movies" section does that.

I have my movies organized in folders, based on genre.
That's why I like the "Videos" section.
Using "Add Source", I can add the appropriate folder/genre to my screen.

The "Movies" section just mixes everything together.
So I don't use it at all.

This really sucks.
It's not only "Back Row" that does it, other skins do it as well.
I hope someone can offer some fixes or modifications. Huh

The main videos section does have views that use fanart (Well in widescreen mode)

If you are using the skin on a 4:3 screen - up until a few minutes ago the videos section didn't have fanart views - it does now though.

Yes, I have a 4:3 screen.

Sorry...I don't understand. Blush
What do you mean by "Up until a few minutes ago"?
Do you mean that it'll just randomly show up?
Or that the skin has been updated recently?

Okay, thanks to the creators for uploading the new version!

Unfortunately, the view I really liked was called "FanArt".
It displayed everything: the covers, title, fan art, & details.

But this seems to be missing in the videos section.
The closest new view is "Fan Art Wrap".
Sadly, it only shows the cover & fan art...no title or details.

Is there a simple modification one can make to the skin?
Or does this have to be left to the pros?

I've just updated it to include the title. Unfortunately you can't (as far as I'm aware) display plot details in file mode.

Thanks so much for your help!
That's okay, I could always press "Info" for details.

I have one last suggestion... Blush
And there's no need to act on it, because I've already asked enough of you.

In the Video section...
Could there be "Fan Art" added to the "DVD Case Wrap 2" view?
Because I love the look of the big cases, & the title positioned above.
But currently, only the curtain serves as the background.
Maybe it could be called "DVD Case Wrap 2 with FanArt".

I haven't said it, but for my Tube TV...BackRow is the only skin that combines elegance & usability. So thanks for maintaining it.
