Dear all. Registered today after years of just following to say thanks to all the people contributing to make xbmc even better. Great job indeed!
I have been using Aeon Nox for quite a while but without fiddling too much with it, because you know, I didn't have the time... : ) Now my library grew quite a bit in the last months, and I finally managed to add all my anime series and movies. So I wanted to customize the look a bit. I put them on the main menu using smart playlists. This looks good and all, but I would look even better if I had random fanart displaying in the background on the main menu. As far as I know (I googled... A LOT), at present it's not possible to do this in Aeon Nox. If I use the movie or tv show random fanart, animes and normal movies are thrown into one big mix. Since the random and last items script is not used in Aeon Nox anymore (according to its programmer), the only option is to use the view with the DVD cases scattered around with the covers of the items on the playlist. While it is a nice gimmick, it doesn't fit my otherwise very clean look of Nox. Is there any chance I missed something, or is this just not possible? May this option eventually be implemented at a later point in time?
I really love Aeon Nox, it covers 99% of my needs. It has all the bells and whistles, and still manages to look simple and clean. Also, it seems to be lightweight, it's a breeze to use. If I could find a way to display the amazing anime fanart in the background of the main menu, it would be 100% perfect for me : )
