[no Bug] In Genre-View no Cover shown (Music) (1 Viewer)

[IchBinsShort]

In the Genre-View (Music), there is no Cover showing. But in the other Views and in the Playlist I can see the Cover. I have attached two Screenshots.

The first shows the Genre-View and the second shows the Playlist.

There are no screenshots attached

Either way I don't think this is a bug. If you are talking about the actual genre level view (ie. the one that shows "Rock", "Alternative", "Pop" etc) then thumbs should be added to C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\thumbs\Music\Genre (MP will automatically create a thumb if you asked it to else no thumbs will be generated)

If you are talking about anything else please provide screenshots but only for default skin. If this is an issue in StreamedMP you would need to report it in the forum for that skin

The latter would suggest to me that simply your ION GPU can not cope with this amount of images in coverflow layout. If you change to say icon does this work?

No, it appears too. I didn't see a picture. And I don't believe it is a ION GPU Problem, because in the other views like all Title, I can see Pictures, and there are a lot of more Covers in one view.

Coverflow pictures are larger and there are more of them. You seem to have >9000 albums in your coverflow list. This is a lot.

What happens if you have a much smaller number?

The Cover-Flow View works in all other Views correctly, it is only the Genre View that didn't work.

The Cover-Flow View works in all other Views correctly, it is only the Genre View that didn't work.

So you have 9129 tracks showing in the genre view. Is this because none of your music is tagged with genre, so that all of your music is showing? Or is this 9129 tracks with a single genre?

Either way, this is a huge list for MP to process.

My question remains. If you have a much smaller list of files, using the same views, does it work?

To put this another way, is this failing in genre view because the list is longer, or is something about genre fundamentally broken?
