Hi,
I've made the following enhancement to StreamedMP MovingPictures.
As you probably are aware, you can add various Categories to MovingPictures and one of these is Actors. As it is, the process will display a list of actors but no images. I thought of displaying images. To achieve this, a new folder was created under Media and named Actors (for a Windows7 machine path would be C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\skin\StreamedMP\Media\Actors), movingpictures.fanart.facade.xml was modified to pick the actor image from this new folder or a default one if not found. Default was set to the same one as MP-TVSeries.
The only thing I am missing is the automatic scraping for Actor photos as don't know how to do that
Anyone interested, feel free and enjoy
