OK, I did some searching and as expected, I found the answer, or at least part of the answer here. Also as expected, it was one of JoeySmyth’s posts that had the answer.
If I understand this correctly using your media files to continue the example:
Tomorrowland.mkv
Tomorrowland.jpg
Tomorrowland.xml
Tomorrowland.mkv_sheet.jpg
The content of the Tomorrowland.xml file would be:
<backdrop>Tomorrowland.mkv_sheet.jpg</backdrop>
So I tried this out and it works! Hang on and let me see if I can get both MovieSheets and Linksheets to work so that I’ll have folder art also. It won’t take me but just a minute.
See, that didn’t take long. The answer is YES! Moviesheets and Linksheets will work together. So I can use Moviesheets for media files and Linksheets for folder backgrounds as described in the GBBM theme.
Of course, after one solution there is always another question.
When using the Tomorrowland.xml file assuming I have the contents of the file correct. The backdrop keeps reloading using an arbutrary transition, such as, slide in from the left or right, or fade in, grow from the bottom left corner, etc. This is annoying and I want it to stop.
I suppose a search for what options are available in the Moviesheet xml file is in order.
Any bets on whether the answer is found in a JoeySmyth post?
