[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1132698, member: 82144"] Hello and welcome David! :) Okay. I'm personally not aware of way to get artwork for programs in the guide. Yes, correct on both points. That's understandable, because AFAIK we don't have any such concept in our TV Server. Yes contributions are welcome, and no I'm not aware of anybody working on such a feature. :) There's a few things to keep in mind if you decide to try to implement this: [LIST] [*]TV Server is currently under code freeze while we develop a [significantly updated] new version [which we call TVE 3.5]. That means: [LIST=1] [*]Any and all code is subject to change at any time. [*]We don't usually immediately integrate patches/changes etc. unless they're fixes for highly visible or critical stability issues. [/LIST] [*]XMLTV is not TV Server's only source of EPG data. We also have built-in in-band DVB EPG support, and various other plugins including WebEPG (website scraper), SchedulesDirect (specific service) and ClickFinder (specific service). It would be ideal if the solution could work independently of the EPG data source. [*]TV Server clients (eg. Kodi, MediaPortal etc.) are not always installed/running on the same "device" as TV Server. They also don't always have direct access to shared/common storage (eg. a folder that TV Server could store files in and clients could retrieve files from). It would be ideal if the solution was implemented in such a way that clients acquired resources (pictures etc.) via a TV Server interface rather than via direct access to a file system. The TV Server thumbnailer might be a good pattern for understanding how to do this. [/LIST] Don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions. :) Regards, mm [/QUOTE]
