My Videos Genre Thumbnails (1 Viewer)

[trevor]

I have been trying to sort out my Videos/Movies, got round to sorting out all the coverart - now all a decent def...

I have grabed a load genre icons and was hoping to use the in the genre display on My Videos, so I copied these to thumbs/videos/genre but not joy just get a blank icon.

Has anyone got this working, does it work???

Cheers

Trevor

Hey,

slightly off-topic, but can you post up the genre pictures
(or let me know where you got them from)

Thanks

Tony

Found them on the SageTV forurm under SageTV Customizations I seem to remember, lost the exact link, guess I would need to ask the authors permision before posting them though.

Ok, Got them

This is something I'm wanting to do, as well
so I'll post back if I get the genres working how I want

!bump

I cant seem to get this to work either.. What are the rules for the thumbs placed in %programdata%\team mp\mp\thumbs\videos\genre? I just tried having .jpeg's with the same name as my genres, but nothing shows up.. I'll try and look at logs and get them attached if you need it later - cant access the HTPC right now.

I've added support for genre thumbs (for database views of course) and fixed a little issue regarding actor thumbs.

As of today the nightly SVN builds will be compiled later to avoid interference with members still working at that time. Therefore the build containing my changes will be available at around 0500 - don't worry

Thx a bunch rtv!

i found this thread and need some help, How did you get the genre thumnails/pictures to work ?
I have placed a picture in the Mediaporta/thumbs\video/genre folder such as Action,jpg But I still get the typical black square thingy. What do I need to enable this ? TY
