    Hello everyone,

    This skin is really nice, however there are times when I am playing music (Radio Time) or maybe open up the videos (which are only home videos) where I would like to have some fun graphics in the back ground similar to when I go into MP-TVseries or Moving pictures and the fanart handler has pushed cool images into the background.

    Can I point something to a folder with lots of jpgs and tell StreamedMP to just randomly go through those in I am in a plug-in that does not have artwork associated with it like Moving Pictures? Or reach for this folder if fanart handler cannot scrape anything up for the artist that is playing?

    -S

    Thanks mrbonsen.
    I don't want to high jack mzdreamer55's thread, but Just wanted to say thanks for the link, I could not find that when I was looking for how to put animated backdrops on the TV plug-in screens. For somereason the Fanart skin tags don't work in the TV xml files. But now I've added this to common.window.tv.xml, mytvguide.xml and mytvhomeserver.xml and presto my TV fan art now appears in the TV screens!

    Thanks.
