That would be interesting to see if that fixes the problem. Thanks patrick, and happy Thanksgiving.

Thanks! I had a good time with family, hope you had a happy Thanksgiving too!

unfortunately, it doesn't change anything

@-ltb-,

I downloaded the xface skin file from post 78 in this thread and
replaced the background image control xml with the xml in your post,
added a "background" folder for animation and everything worked ok.

This is using the latest MP, Xface and Music Trivia.

(If you want to attach your skin file I will try it on my box with xface.)

"Good news", pb solved, I have updated MP with the last svn, re-scanned my music database and re-installed the plugin and now it works, I don't know what happened before...
thx

Good to hear. I think we were all kind of clueless as to what could be causing the problem.

Hi

I played around with musictrivia.xml for xface in order to improve the look and feel in two player mode - maybe its of use for somebody...?

Cheers,

No album art to see!

Hi jburnette!

I enjoy playing your little game very much.

Unfortunaltly I don't see any album art although I have album art for most of my songs.

I think what your plugin does is: Looking for folder.jpg in the music folder.
Because in rare cases, where I accidently had a folder.jpg the album art was shown.

As my physical storage goes artist/tracks not artist/album/tracks I don´t use folder.jpg
All my album art is in mediaportal/thumbs/album/*.*

It seems you don´t make use of the thumbs folder.

tomtom,

I use Mediaportal's GetFolderThumb method for retrieving the album thumbnails. I had never noticed this, but you're right - it only looks in the folder for an image. I'll look into switching over to another method for locating the thumbnails that should work in your situation as well.

Thanks for the heads up on that!

Hey, first of all I couldn't see the tags of the mp3's in the skin Project Mayhem 3. I just had to copy the xml from BlueTwo to Project Mayhem 3 and it works perfectly. I don't know whether you know of this problem, but i think you'll have to fix it in the next version. Thanks for the funny game.

 

[jburnette]

Thanks for the report, but I don't do the skin files for Project Mayhem 3. That's something you'd need to report in that skin's specific forum.
