Wait a moment.

Need to get my Crystal Ball installed to see what's happening on a PC in Germany.

LOGS please

May I don't explain enough.
When I go to the Mediaportal Setup, mark "use folder.jpg to create thumbnails & Create artist and genre thumb from first file" and press "Update database from selected shares", after the process there are no files in:
C:\Programme\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\Thumbs\Music\Genre\
although there is in each music folder a file folder.jpg.

After the process there are only covers in:
C:\Programme\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\Thumbs\Music\Albums\
C:\Programme\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\Thumbs\Music\Artists\
C:\Programme\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\Thumbs\Music\Folder\


In an older release (SVN 09-21-2007--01-04-Rev15994) the creating of the Genre Thumbs works well.

Hi,
I can confirm that create genre thumbs doesn't work when updating database & crate genre from first images it's enabled (log attached)

I've removed some code that is not needed any longer and added some more logging. Please try again with next svn.

Hi,
Tested with a private build & it works well again, thanks rtv

Next build from svn revision 16281 & above will contain the fix..

to Franky66 for reporting

Regards
Roy

Since the generation of genre thumbs seemed a bit useless to me I generalized the folder thumbs known from MyPictures where you can see pictures of up to 4 subitems. Now this function is used for genre and artist thumbs as well. Tell me how you like it

 

[Franky66]

I don't like the 4 subitems. May it would be great to select (one cover or 4 subitems) before generating the thumbs.
