Sometimes the movie info is incorrect or incorrect picture

donmega · 2005-12-15, 10:04

Ok so I have about 5 movies now that have the wrong picture but right info, any way to fix this ?

What I mean by picture is the icon picture of the box cover of the dvd that you get info for.

Any help is apreciated.

thanks

You can change the picture in two ways. Firstly, Media Portal will in general find more than one picture per movie, and you can cycle through these in the Movie Information Screen by clicking the up/down arrows next to "Image".
Secondly, if none of those fit, you can change the image in the Configuration Program (Movies->Movie Database->Coverart), and set a url of a picture you would prefer (MediaPortal then downloads the picture and caches it on the hard disk for future use).

too bad RC2 crashes if you try it this way :shock:
btw, why don't the "folder.jpg" images work for the folders anymore?

worked like a charm.

Unfortunatly some movies are still non-existant like Unleashed with jet li.

Ah well.

Unleashed is called Danny the dog. I had the same problem with that movie. You can check it out here:
