Howdy all

Is it possible for the backdrops on the home window to come from the library?

For example, if the TV Shows menu item is selected then the backdrop can display random fanart images from the library. When Movies is selected, random movie fanart is displayed, etc.

Some sort of multiimage control obviously.

If it is possible, could you give me hint on how

Thanks in advance,

Crookas

I think that Transparency! has this future, see into skin settings. reFocus has this too but not with segregation to movies, tvshows, etc. So I think you can do that.

video fanart gets cached in
userdata/Thumbnails/Video/Fanart

so point your multiimage control to
special://profile/Thumbnails/Video/Fanart
and you're done.

note: both movies and TV Shows fanart get cached to the same folder.
