Great work on the skin, been using it for the past couple months with no issues to speak of.
I have a couple folders of videos(racing and trailers) that aren't TV Shows and/or Movies so can't use library mode for them. So I am using the browse function to view these folders. For the racing stuff it is working fine but for the trailers I am downloading I am also downloading a dvd sized cover image so when viewing in browse mode it wants to put the cover in a widescreen sized image so the top/bottom get lopped off. Wondering if there is a way for me to change/add a view which displays the video's image in different sized formats. Or if there is a setting that auto detects the size depending on if it is using a screenshot or cover image?
Hope that made sense. :-)
Thanks!!
There's no such auto-detecting unfortunately. Well, there is the option to set the image's aspectratio to "keep" which does that to an extent, however this causes more issues that it solves in that regard.
One solution I could implement is to add a viewtype option for it. This would mean you can choose between sort of portrait and landscape orientation. You would have to set this on a per folder basis though, but after that it should stick. However this would only work properly if you have them sorted by folder.
so something like:
folder 1
--all folders with videos that should have landscape thumbnails
folder 2
--all folders with videos that should have poster/portrait images
I don't think this would have an effect on the image orientation of video files that are in the library, even when browsing in file mode.
Let me know if this could be a solution for you and I'll see what I can do for 0.8.9
