Music extrafanart not working.
#1
I think I've setup extrafanart correctly, but it's not working. I setup the folders like this-

X:\Music\Iron Maiden\extrafanart\

I've got about 10 .jpg files in there.

I set the extrafanart folder in settings to X:\Music\

I made sure the Fanart Slideshow is the set visualization.

But I still only get the default fanart. What am I doing wrong?

could you post a Debug Log?

here's what i need:
- enable debug logging
- restart xbmc
- play some music
- switch to the fullscreen visualization window
- upload Debug Log to pastebin

Not sure how much of the log you need

http://pastebin.com/D9iBrGKD

All my music is in X:\Music\Music\Artist\Album
I made a folder for extrafanart X:\Music\Music\Artist\extrafanart

just installed rc1 on my windows machine and extrafanart is working fine here.
whatever i try, i can't reproduce your issue.

from the log it tels me it can't find X:\Music\Music\Iron Maiden\extrafanart
no clue why...normally you only get this error when there's no extrafanart directory.

Quote:I set the extrafanart folder in settings to X:\Music\

this setting is not used for the visualisation slideshow,
it's used for extrafanart when browsing your musiclibrary...which also doesn't seem to work for you.

wish i could tell you more...but the only thing i can come up with is to doublecheck if there really is an extrfanart folder in Iron Maiden.

Thanks for the idea. It worked! Stupid me, I put the extrafanart folder on my local laptop harddrive which is a copy of my HTPC music directory. One I copied it to the HTPC, it works!

One quick question though. Is there a way to change the speed at with the pix are cycled? they are too fast now. I'd like to change it to 30 seconds or something.

only by editing Includes_Workarounds.xml.

lookup the fanartslideshow-musicvisualisation section
and change:
Code:
<timeperimage>[b]30[/b]000</timeperimage>
