Does anyone have this working in the AEON skin? Specifically the music fanart?

 

[TechnoBuddhi]

I've had a play around for a while and nothing doing in Aeon Wide. Anybody got this working in Aeon yet?

[EDIT]
OK more playing around and I've got it working!!

The trick is to make sure you place it in the correct place in the myVideoTitle.xml file. Place the code just below ' <import>common.window.video.xml</import>' as seen below.

I've also changed my path so that it uses the standard 'movies' folder. That way I don't need to keep separate folders for 'movies' and one for 'fanart'.

Note also that only jpg and png filetypes are supported, tif and tiff give a black screen!so use #title.png or #title.jpg.

CAVEAT - The png and jpg files should be renamed to match exactly the 'Title' in the database and has nothing to do with the filename(as I stupidly thought!)

    <import>common.window.video.xml</import>
                         <control>
      				<description>fanart</description>
      				<type>image</type>
      				<id>1000</id>
      				<posX>0</posX>
      				<posY>0</posY>
      				<width>1920</width>
      				<height>1080</height>
      				<colordiffuse>ffffff</colordiffuse>
      				<texture>\Animations\movies\#title.png</texture>
      				<animation effect="fade" time="400">WindowClose</animation>
      				<animation effect="fade" time="400">WindowOpen</animation>
    			</control>
    <import>common.time.xml</import>

So now it's time to find and rename the fanart! the things we go through to strive for perfection!!

[EDIT 2]
The fanart I have is 1920x1080 and I noticed that it was being enlarged and therefore being cropped(just like the pic had been zoomed in), so I deleted the <width> and <height> attributes and they are being shown correctly, full size, no zoom, no crop.

You may need to do this or play around depending on your fanart.

Can this be done on any skins now or is it something thats likely to be included in RC3 or 2.0??
