That means that you don´t look in the skin folders for those icons?

Hmmm, must see ... Now I check ...

This works as expected - deleted the genre/character/studios/awards from thumb folder and all work with the icons inside the skin folder - nice work
I think you may release it

 

[catavolt]

So, in general - how do we proceed?
Will FH install the icons in thumbs folder automatically so there is no need to put the files into skin folder (reducing skin size but delays first lookup because not in skin cache) - or should skinners put those files into their skins - or will you prepare an extra mpe1 package to be installed in thumbs folder?

Yes

reducing skin size

Yes

but delays first lookup because not in skin cache

Delays will not be as the process of loading pictures is the same. And no matter where they are located.

or should skinners put those files into their skins

If they need an alternative image (design, size, etc). Otherwise it makes no sense.

will you prepare an extra mpe1 package to be installed in thumbs folder

I have prepared 3 different packages that will be installed together with the plug (in thumb folder). So they can be installed separately. But I do not know how to add them to the repository.
https://github.com/andrewjswan/mediaportal.images.studios/tree/master/build
https://github.com/andrewjswan/mediaportal.images.genres/tree/master/build
https://github.com/andrewjswan/mediaportal.images.awards/tree/master/build
They are now included in the main package, but if they are in the repository then you can remove them from the main package, and they will be loaded separately for installation.

Try

 

[catavolt]

Add Awards, Genres, Studios packages...

They are not in the main package of 4.0.2.229
Or they don´t get installed even if ticked in the installer

How not?

 

[catavolt]

Here they don´t get installed at all - I tried it already three times
