Well, I tried posting this in another forum, but maybe this one is more appropriate.

Okay, getting to be a long list of quirks, so I figure I'll list them here. As I'm sure to solve some, this will also serve as a convenient n00b solution thread, lol.
1. xFace is showing empty gray boxes in the My TV Series plugin at 1920x1200 res.
2. It's also not showing the DVD Cover Art for each Season. This may be by design, but would be really easy to fix.
3. Music Album Art is not stretching to extents in the Big Icon/Tile/Thumbnail view
4. Artist pics in My Music is not preserving aspect ratio (looks stretched/squashed).
5. My TV Series is picking up on movies on the same drive as my TV Series. This seems to be by design, but ought to have a "exclude sub-folder" option.
6. I can't seem to switch the ugly default WMP visualization to something better like Milkdrop, Geiss or TwistedPixel.
7. My Music Videos shows a blank screen no matter what menu option I select from the left.
8. My Trailers pulls the movie name, and then on the trailer page shows an http error. It looks like maybe Yahoo changed their URL format?
9. xFace is not wrapping actor information properly in the My TV Series page. It obscures the episode thumbnail and spills over to the episode summary, and covers the airing date.
10. My Music detects album and artist names as different if there is a difference in captialization. Can we change this?
11. In My Music, it labels all songs as 'Unknown' album, if it's not tagged. This ought to be changed to search by artist+song name, so we can pick what album it's from in the list.
12. in Xface, when a video is playing and one presses backspace or the back arrow on the remote, audio is playing, but no video thumbnail is shown., unless one backs out all the way to the home screen. This could easily be placed in the bottom left, covering the episode thumbnail.
13. Strange behaivior in My Music, where sometimes the visualization thumb gets focus, and it is impossible to switch focus except by backing up.
14. My Pictures doesn't auto-resize pictures. It should do this by height or width, whichever is greater, and respect aspect ratio.
That's all for now, TIA!
