It's meant to be working in library mode.

You can place a fanart.jpg, or fanart.png file in the shows main folder, IE:
\Television\Shows\Stargate Atlantis\fanart.jpg
And XBMC will use that as the fanart image. This method does NOT provide color information.
If a show already has fanart assigned to it, the fanart.jpg method wont' work, because it won't override what you already had set (for safety :p) so in order to change it simlply go to the Choose Fanart window, select BROWSE, and then select the local image you want to use as fanart.

That isn't movie fanart, that's local TV show fanart

Sorry, it was early.

I think movie fanart needs to be named:
<moviename>-fanart.jpg or .png and be in the same directory as the movie file.
i.e.
Magnum Force (1973).mkv
Magnum Force (1973)-fanart.jpg
<moviename>-fanart.jpg or .png and be in the same directory as the movie file.
i.e.
Magnum Force (1973).mkv
Magnum Force (1973)-fanart.jpg

This is what I've tried without success. Am I missing something?

Anything in your logfiles?

the image will then be available as
listitem.property(fanart_image)
fanart.image is the CONTAINER fan art, not the select item's fanart
listitem.property(fanart_image)
fanart.image is the CONTAINER fan art, not the select item's fanart

Ahh, much obliged. I'll give it a try later.
2008-06-24, 20:43
Would I be right in thinking that, because the listitem fanart ceases to exist the second you move to an adjacent item, it's impossible to fade these images out?
2008-06-24, 22:04
That sounds right, yes. Just the same as any other image that depends on the listitem.
2008-06-24, 22:10
Is there any way of combining the fanart_image object with a multiimage control to enable crossfading? Or am I being completely stupid now?
2008-06-24, 23:15
No, there is not.
