thanks for the reply, i should've stated this in my original post but i am more concerned in applying the tweak to my
own local content not external add-ons. I figure that something like that may not be possible to do to add-ons but was
curious if it could be applied with my own stuff.

At the moment i was using the regular tv show section within my videos with my local tv shows to populate the list on
the shelf. (picture "C. what really happens when i try to implement" is my own local content)

So let's say if i wanted to apply the tweak to just my own movies/tv shows from the videos section rather than add-ons.

I will mess around with the xml files and see what happens.

thanks!

I'm confused, because highlighting TVSHOWS what you should see is this:



and the skin has an option to show fanart instead of thumb... so I don't know why you getting posters instead :-(

can you screenshot the whole screen?

edit... Now that I take a closer look... are U sure You're using sio2 skin? doesn't really look like it.

Yea i wasn't using your original skin, what i was using was a schismtv build. Sorry about that...

I went ahead and installed your skin, but still having similar problems

This is what it looks like right now:


Which is much closer to what i'm trying to achieve...

This is with the enabled fan art option turned on, i can change the fan art and it updates on the front shelf panel, and
it displays the content in the proper horizontal display dimensions but this seems to only be available when displaying
"recently added episodes" nothing else.

If i edit the tv shows icon and link the item to tv shows then it will just display it in the standard format:


Is it possible to have the tv shows section only display "fanart" as the default shelf view rather than posters?

Which xml files contains that "recently added episodes" code/view etc? Maybe i can tweak something there?

thanks again
