you’re all set except if you want the resolution flag on the movie thumbs you need to switch the movie sheet selection to the corresponding template

cool, looks great DeV… thanks for your hard work! My media player has been pimped! 
WOW! WOW! WOW! :smileyhappy
it’s very perfect, it’s run very well,this theme is beautifull.
Good work.
do i need to redload the common folder or is it good as well? thanks in advance
Hey Dev
Question about gallery view:
Is there a reason you have the cover image above [red box] when its already showing below [green box]? You could use this realty to expand plot to increase font a little or anything else on that top section really.
how do I get the resolution flag to work?
What about trying use ID3 tag for music? So we can disable media library and have the correct title displaying… I belive some theme support it… maybe i am in wrong !! 
EDIT: There are littles differences between the “black lady head” on each home screen… not a very strong matter, but that a pitty!

I have probably less than 20 movies that fill the space of the plot and font size 10 is more than appropriate, I don’t have the best eyes and they read easy on the screen even without my glasses. 
Anyone who wants to make changes for their own purposes, preferences shall do that, I will not change anything on my sheets unless I don’t like them anymore.

no you are fine! You would not be able to get the theme without the common folder if it was updated to avoid questions like that

I wasnt meaning you should change it… i was just trying to get your reasoning behind having it twice. If we were to modify this is it part of the template or the theme? how about the still hots to the right… theme or template?
Thanks

ID3 tags don’t show without media library with the new firmware i don’t think it does with the old firmware either.
This is a shortcoming of epic proportions to force feed people with a library that doesn’t even work properly. If I would adop a child from Africa that has never made any experience with electricity it would know in 2 minutes that this library is the work of someone who should be unemployed and been taken off the workforce so he can never receive welfare.
The Black head is semi transparent it changes slightly with the background, maybe your TV is not calibrated correctly you should be able to see that even on an older TV

it’s in the template under the element “sourcecover” the cover itself is actually referring to the bluray.png
Btw the part you marked in red is not the area the cover is taking, the cover takes the space of it’s visibility and you will gain not more than 8 pixels if your remove it unless you want to get rid of the over art too which you please never show me or I will cry
ok DeV just to be certain where do I extract this to? Movie Thumb folder?
still no resolution flag, my file is named as such:
Deja.Vu.2006.bluray720p.mkv
is this correct?
nevermind, I got it lol… oversight on my part, another excellent Job DeV… wel done!
You don’t answer me… snif! 
I have another question… my music folders are like that:
ARTIST_1
- ALBUM_1
- folder.jpg
- ARTIST_1 - ALBUM_1.xml
- 01 - Track_1.mp3
- 02 - Track_2.mp3
- 02 - Track_3.mp3
- …
- ALBUM_2
- folder.jpg
- ARTIST_1 - ALBUM_2.xml
- 01 - Track_1.mp3
- 02 - Track_2.mp3

ARTIST_2

I have media library off… and haven’t got any picture in each ARTIST_# folder (only in each albums)… so, in the music view, it works perfectly when i browe albums, but i have empty cover when i browse artists…
Is there anyway for you to write Artist’s name instead of empty cover when there is no picture in the folder? (The name is written on the top of the screen but it’s sad to see 24 empty covers on the screen :D)
PS: I have 200 artists and i don’t find any program to download an artist’s picture automaticaly !
Thanks!

each folder needs an folder.jpg
i know you don’t have a program to get them because you didn’t read the instructions “Problems with Music Covers.txt”
lol :smileyvery-happy:

I have this program and i use it
Every Album folder have a folder.jpg, but i have no picture for the artists folders… i don’t find anyway to get them automaticaly (200 artists)

you have to extract the folder.jpg for the artist folder from the mp3 files or copy and paste the ones you have.
I am using Tag Scanner for extracting covers because you can predefine the file name, 200 Artists take an hour with that program http://www.xdlab.ru/en/download.htm
