[QUOTE="dir, post: 1027829, member: 24485"] Is there a wiki or separate thread for this tool? I've just discovered it, but reading the first 10+ pages or so is 99% developers discussing the coding they're doing to the app. Same with the last 5 pages. I couldn't invest a couple of hours reading all 35 pages to find answers to the following, so perhaps someone could answer them and the first post updated for other non-developers to get a better idea of things: - where can I use the output of this tool? - if I download youtube videos, will they appear as an option in MP's music player somewhere? - if not, what's the point of having the videos - does any part of MP know about music videos or is that another plugin I have to install? - does downloading tv series fanart show up by default somewhere in MP? Does it replace/add to existing banners? (I think the problem is that I don't know what "fanart" is) - what does the 'D' under the Youtube column in the Music (Artist) tab mean? Also, its not clear (and quite non-intuitive) that in order for any actual functions to work, you have to enable them within the Settings screen. I went through the process of filling in lots of stuff in Setttings, then tried activating things only to find that nothing happens. This is really non-intuitive and goes against any program I've ever seen - surely, if I go to the Music (Artist) tab and click on the buttons, something should happen! Perhaps just have the buttons greyed out with a message or something saying, "You can't use these unless you turn this function on in the Setttings menu" (which in itself is really quite a strange thing) I'm just really trying to work out whether this tool is of any use. Sure, I can download disk images and things, but if its not spelled out how I can use them, I don't know if this is the start of a very long effort or something that will immediately give me benefit.
