Love Transperancy by the way. Best skin I used. I was using Mediastream before, but I like how Transperancy shows pretty much the whole fanart picture with the movie list (small) on the right, and not having plot and stuff automatically come up on screen. I enjoy seeing my fanart!
I have a question regarding my local fanart that I have for some of my files. I went through and picked quite a number of nice fanart for some of my files. From the initial scrape it picked out certain fanart imagery that I didn't like, so I got some more from Movie Database and have them stored in each folder as "fanart.jpg". I also have my library set to update on startup.
I found that on the update, it doesn't pick up the fanart from the folder (i.e. the local fanart) and still uses the ones that were scraped. I found I had to either go and do a refresh on each file (or select Get fanart and select "Local fanart" - which is faster).
I have tried some settings here and there in the Skin settings "use fanart instead of visualisation etc." but either I am doing something wrong, or this is just what needs to be done. Or do I have to remove the scraper and re-add it.
I have my TV shows to do next, but before I go through that, need to know the best way to get the local fanart used.
