Hi all,

the Slide view is my favorite view, so i modded or more accurate extended it for use with the TV Shows Library.

I just enabled it for TV Shows, changed the cases to tv-case, added TV Shows Logos and made some minor Changes.



Replace the code in View-Slide.xml with this one http://pastebin.com/bDnu62v5

Note: You have to enable the "Use Posters" setting or you won't be able to choose the view.

I was working of Transparency SVN Version 428. I don't know, if this works with older versions.

@ronie, would be great, if you could adapt the changes

Got a pic of the Fanart view, you have no idea how many hours, maybe a solid 4-5 hours on T! trying to incorporate logos...

I guess I'm a dunce, but I can't figure out how to get this script working with the latest XBMC nightlies. I've tried creating a scripts folder in the main XBMC installation folder and then putting the extracted script folder there, but it doesn't show up when I try to select it from Skin Settings -> Scripts -> Script Path. I know scripts and addons have changed with the latest builds, so maybe I'm putting it in the wrong place? Can anyone help?

[ronie]

copy the script to .xbmc/addons
rename the script folder to script.logo-downloader
add an addon.xml file to this folder:

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<addon id="script.logo-downloader"
       name="Logo Downloader"
       version="1.2.2"
       provider-name="ppic">
  <requires>
    <import addon="xbmc.python" version="1.0"/>
  </requires>
  <extension point="xbmc.python.script"
             library="default.py" />
  <extension point="xbmc.addon.metadata">
    <platform>all</platform>
    <minversion>30369</minversion>
    <summary>Logo Downloader script</summary>
    <description>Download TV show Logos</description>
  </extension>
</addon>

Thanks ronie, that did it! The logos are pretty cool. It found 14 out of 31, but shows a "07-Ghost" logo for 8 others. Very strange. I like anime, but I've never heard of that show, so it's never been in my library. That logo shows up for shows like Miami Vice, that definitely have a logo. I'll have to post a bug report over on the release thread.

Thanks again, ronie!

brilliant! now I can finally start sorting my tv serials two thumbs up!

[KevinSartori]

Never mind. This must be a network problem. XBMC no longer sees my shares...

Hmmm, I've done all this but I cannot choose the script path in skin settings/scripts/enable logo downnloader script.
I've grabbed the logo downloader script and extracted to the addons path, renamed the folder it created from "logo downloader" to "script.logo-downloader" and created that addon.xml file in the folder. The "get logo" button appears when I choose show info but nothing happens.
Sorry Ronie, probably not your skins' issue but can anyone help?

what version of xbmc are you using?
you need a fairly recent build for this to work.

[clipper99]

You were right Ronie, I was at 30362 and assumed it was recent enough!
