Hi, first off let me say thanks to everyone for another great release of XBMC. I really appreciate the hard work you all done and the time and effort you put in to this great multimedia experience whilst keeping it free. So i can't thank you enough.
I have a question regarding the behavior of thumbs in "Video File Mode" on a windows 7 x64 box with frodo 12.0 final. (Git:20130127-fb595f2)
I have searched the forum but can't find the answers specifically regarding thumb creation in file mode.
I have movie folders and series folders with thumb / fanart already scraped within each folder on a network SMB share. When i go to my series folder (example: \Series\) all thumbs of the individual series are shown but when i go in to one of those series (example: \Series\24\) the season thumbs are not being displayed.
The (\Series\24\) folder consist of Season01 etc folders and fanart.jpg, folder.jpg and season01.tbn etc .tbn files. In Dharma and Eden the season01.tbn was used as a thumb for the Season01 folder. This however has stopped working for me in Frodo.
While i have read the wiki and some forum threads and tried to add season01-poster.jpg to the folder (\Series\24\) i still do not see the thumbs. This leads me to believe that i have not understood it correctly or that it's only related to import of thumbs in library. Also setting content to series or setting content to none did not help.
I would appreciate any help in this or a pointer to the right direction.
