Widget Fanart and Backgrounds - dreamercast - 2016-12-02

Hi everyone, first wanted to say excellent job on the original skin, really appreciate all the hard work. I have looked through every menu, tried the widgets manager but cannot find how to enable fanart as a background to the displaying widget (eg. in cinema movies or popular tv shows)...only when I click right to one of the widget icons does it start showing fanart. If this isn't possible, that's OK too.

One other minor thing, is it possible to select a NAS folder as a source for a background image? Multiple Image seems to work; although you cant specifically select a folder without pointing to it through the network. I have the folder setup as a source through the file manager as well.

Any help is appreciated,

dreamer

Yes, that view works for me as well; that is when you click right to the actual widget. I mean for the widget to display fanart as a background simply in the menu during navigation. Maybe this also means the widget needs to cycle through the entries as well,
