Hi there,

After referring to this page: http://wiki.xbmc.org/?title=InfoLabels
I decided to use LatestAlbum.[1-10].Thumb to retrieve the album cover to be displayed under recently added albums.

I went with a list control. This is my code:

PHP Code:

<include name="HomeMenu_MusicRecentlyAdded">
<control type="list" id="940">
    <posx>0</posx>
    <posy>0</posy>
    <width>500</width>
    <height>400</height>
    <allowoverlay>false</allowoverlay>
    <orientation>vertical</orientation>
    <visible>Container(300).HasFocus(2) + Library.HasContent(Music)</visible>

    <itemlayout width="900" height="350">
        <control type="label">
            <posx>0</posx>
            <posy>20</posy>
            <font>Small</font>
            <height>50</height>
            <textcolor>white</textcolor>
            <info>ListItem.Label</info>
        </control>

        <control type="image">
            <posx>0</posx>
            <posy>0</posy>
            <width>350</width>
            <height>350</height>
            <texture>$INFO[ListItem.Thumb]</texture>
        </control>
    </itemlayout>

    <focusedlayout width="900" height="350">
        <control type="label">
            <posx>0</posx>
            <posy>20</posy>
            <height>50</height>
            <font>Small</font>
            <textcolor>white</textcolor>
            <info>ListItem.Label</info>
        </control>

        <control type="image">
            <posx>200</posx>
            <posy>20</posy>
            <width>350</width>
            <height>350</height>
            <texture>$INFO[ListItem.Thumb]</texture>
        </control>
    </focusedlayout>

    <content>
        <item id="941">
            <info>Window(Home).Property(RecentAlbum.1.Title)</info>
            <texture>$INFO[Window.Property(RandomMovie.1.fanart)]</texture>
            <onclick>-</onclick>
         </item>

         <item id="942">
            <info>Window(Home).Property(RecentAlbum.2.Title)</info>
            <texture>$INFO[Window(Home).Property(RandomMovie.1.Art(fanart))]</texture>
            <onclick>-</onclick>
         </item>

        
        
    </content>
</control>
</include> 


I can not, for the life of me, get the album covers to show up.
I have the skin services add-on installed, so tried with RecentAlbums and RandomAlbum, no dice.

What gives?

You haven't defined the thumb image in your content.

PHP Code:

<icon>Window(Home).Property(RecentAlbum.1.Thumb)</icon> 


EDIT: And

PHP Code:

<texture>$INFO[Window(Home).Property(RandomMovie.1.Art(fanart))]</texture> 


won't work.

Static list content doesn't use <texture>

You are very correct, thank you sirs!

This ended up working:

PHP Code:

<control type="image">
            <posx>0</posx>
            <posy>30</posy>
            <width>250</width>
            <height>250</height>
            <texture>$INFO[ListItem.Thumb]</texture>
        </control> 


and in <content>:

PHP Code:

<item id="941">
            <label>$INFO[Window.Property(RecentAlbum.1.Title)]</label>
            <thumb>$INFO[Window.Property(LatestAlbum.1.Thumb)]</thumb>
            <onclick>-</onclick>
         </item>
