Green Camera Icon Showing

Hey there, Guys.

I have the SMP, 3rd Gen, paired with a WD My Passport, 1TB external HDD. This is a new relationship, and we’re still getting to know each other! I usually have my ‘view’ option set to ‘Folder’. I have a folder.jpg within each folder so an image displays on the folder of the movie/programme within. However, and I don’t even know if this is meant to be like this, but I can’t see the point of it if it is, the green camera icon shows on each folder over my nice folder art. I thought that if I had a cover for each folder, the green icon would no longer show?? Is there any way I can get rid of it?

Also, I put a folder.jpg in ‘My Passport’ HDD so I don’t get the black square with a green icon on it, but it won’t show up. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance.

Cheers,

Michaela

You can get rid of it via custom themeing

(eg. edit xml’s and remove image image="thumb_folder_icon or erase (don’t delete) the thumbnail_folder_cover_mask.png icon**)**

Oh, ok. So there’s no way to ‘tweak’ the default theme?

yes absolutely you can “tweak it” to your hearts content (add,remove,alter,change etc)

Brilliant! Any tutorials on how to do that?

Thanks, Joey :slight_smile:

This theme removes the folder overlay icon for the video views… upload it to your SMP*
