[QUOTE="ltfearme, post: 1264432, member: 52219"] New beta test package available 4.3.3.9 attached. Whats New: [LIST] [*]Fixed compatbility with Subcentral when using MP1.23 (as released in 4.3.3.8 dll); [*]Delete API cache when updating individual series from configuration screen (more improvements needed here); [*]Removed requirement to have TVSeries enabled in Trakt to import community ratings from trakt.tv; [*]Many improvements to artwork downloading during imports. Now supports getting all English artwork (not just single) when no Posters/Banners exist in localised language; [*]Fixed Fanart downloads not working in some instances; [*]Normalised all artwork local paths as opposed to transforming online paths specified in API. TheTVDb.com keep changing their formats!; [*]Added new Artwork Chooser GUI which is going to be the replacement to the Fanart Chooser and Cycle Artwork options in context menu. [/LIST] The [B]Artwork Chooser [/B]is not yet complete, and is still missing support to actually download your favourite artwork. So what can you do? Right now you can: [LIST] [*]Open the context menu ([B]F9[/B]) and select '[B]Artwork Chooser[/B]' (if and only if you have an updated skin - Titan is included in package); [*]If you are at the series level then you will see 3 options: [LIST] [*]Series Fanart; [*]Series Posters; [*]Series Widebanners. [/LIST] [*]If you are the season or episode levels, then you will see an addition option: [LIST] [*]Season Posters. [/LIST] [*]The Artwork Chooser uses 3 different facades to present the artwork: [LIST] [*]Series and Season Posters use Facade ID: 50; [*]Series Widebanners use Facade ID: 51; [*]Series Fanart use Facade ID: 52 [/LIST] [*]The reason for the different facades is because each artwork has a different aspect ratio, this allows skinners to have better layouts for Icons and Filmstrip; [*]The Skin filename is [B]TVSeries.ArtworkChooser.xml[/B] and has a WindowID: [B]9817[/B]; [*]You can view all artwork already downloaded and what are remote (labels are available to determine if its local, remote or selected as default); [*]As mentioned earlier, you can not yet download or select the default artwork yet (coming very soon); [*]There are only 4 layouts per facade availalble (List, Icons, BigIcons and Filmstrip), although I can easily add more; [*]All localised and English artwork will be displayed, so there should always be something to pick from; [*]Artwork preview thumbs should be downloaded a lot faster than Fanart Chooser (multithreaded with room for improvement); [*]The following skin properties are available when art is selected: [LIST] [*]#TVSeries.Artwork.Filename; [*]#TVSeries.Artwork.Language; [*]#TVSeries.Artwork.OnlinePath; [*]#TVSeries.Artwork.OnlineThumbPath; [*]#TVSeries.Artwork.Rating (seems to be a bit buggy in the API at the moment); [*]#TVSeries.Artwork.RatingCount (votes); [*]#TVSeries.Artwork.IsDefault; [*]#TVSeries.Artwork.IsLocal; [*]#TVSeries.Artwork.SelectedItem (e.g. [I]9.1 (255 votes) | Remote[/I]); [/LIST] [*]The following skin properties are available globally: [LIST] [*]#TVSeries.Artwork.SeriesID; [*]#TVSeries.Artwork.SeriesName; [*]#TVSeries.Artwork.SeasonIndex (when viewing Season posters); [*]#TVSeries.Artwork.Type (this is the type of artwork e.g. 'SeriesFanart', 'SeriesPoster', 'SeriesBanner', 'SeasonPoster'. [/LIST] [*]The MPEI package includes the Artwork Chooser for the Titan skin, skin designers can use this as a baseline to get ready for official release; [LIST] [*]Please speak out [USER=54906]@catavolt[/USER] or any other skinner if you need any help or think of something that would be good to add/fix. [/LIST] [/LIST] Since I personally use the StreamedMP skin, I will update that skin to support the new GUI. For now, Im concentrating on coding the solution first...
