Fanart on Main Menu (Noob question) - lawrence_craig - 2011-09-06
Sorry for such a noob question but done some google searches and cant find anything.
How do I get various fanart on the main menu page as the background?
The method I have tried is grabbing the fanart out of Program Files/XBMC and copying the folder but cant find the fan art in the XBMC folder (its not in Userdata).
Any help world be great. Thanks!

Dharma
http://transparency-xbmc.googlecode.com/files/script.video-fanart-splitter-v0.2.5.zip
then point the backgrounds to the correct folders

thank you but the links aren't working! And am I correct in thinking that the tool will split the fan art from the video/tv show files?

yes
here is a new link for the Dharma one

thanks for your help. However, I put the script in the folder XBMC/addons and when I try to run it on XBMC, it says script failed. Am I doing it right?

What version of XBMC (dharma or nightly)?
Which script?
- lawrence_craig - 2011-09-09
I am using Dharma. The script is the file you linked me to. Its called script.video-fanart-splitter. I copied and pasted it to the XBMC addon folder but it when I try to run it in XBMC it say script failed.
