Hey gang,
I am loving this skin! I only have one question. I am trying to use the recently added TV shows and Movies on the home screen feature and I can't seem to get it to work. When I enable them, nothing seems to show up anywhere. I am not sure what I am missing. Is there something special I need to do to get those working? The recently added feature works on other skins so I don't think I am completely hopeless.
I am using XBMC 10.1 and the latest version of the skin downloaded from within XBMC add-ons.

My logo script and tv guide seem to have stopped working entirely for me. They were up and running before but now if I run the tv logo script it just comes back right away with 0's for all categories, if I try to run it from the info "get Logo" it comes back "error no tvdb id found" I've checked the nfo file for the tv show and the ID's are in them, I even rescraped the show using the built in scraper instead and it still gives me the same error. My TV Guide screen is now blank as well, no shows listed at all.
Running the latest version from passion repository and version 11 compiled on sept 18th. Any thoughts on where to start.
**edit**
trying to update to a newer build of openelec, looks like the 18th has has a release on the 20th and 21st since then. Hoping that takes care of it. The get logo sript is actually running now though, that's a start. TV Guide still coming up emtpy though.
That seems to have fixed it, but my TV Guide screen is only filling in up to monday the 26th, the 27th is completely blank and I know there are plenty of shows for tuesday. But I don't think that is really a nox issue at this point =) (nor was any of it really I guess)

I have just configured my movie library inDharma 10.1 with the latest repo version of NOXand all works great so far.
Now I notice that for the movie detail layout there are a number of layout choices that allow thumbs to be displayed (screenshots) but obviously I haven't got any thumbs set for movies yet and all the boxes show the default image.
I read somewhere else that in the movie folder you need to have a folder called "thumbs" and then have "thumb1.jpg, thumb2.jpg ....." placed int he folder to have these show. I have done a quick test with 1 movie but they don't show up.
How does this feature work and is there a way to automatically grab images for this feature or do I have to manually find the thumbs for this?
EDIT: Ok, found the answer after more searching... The DIR needs to be named "extrathumbs". How does one collect these thumbs. I am currently just google imaging the movies but this is slooooow for 500+ movies. Is there an automated screen grabber?

Hi. I've started to use this skin a couple of month ago. Before that I had my Alaska period and before that I was a big Aeon fan.
I on the SVN of the skin, since I use a pre Eden build, and the default version of the skin didn't work very well.
Anyhow, I use the landscape view for my TV Shows and the TV Logos make everything look so much more professional.
But since I'm from Sweden, I have a lot of tv shows in my library that are not getting as much support for fan art and posters and banners, AND SPECIALLY not TV logos. =(
I wonder if there is a way to use a poster or a banner for these shows that do not have any TV Logos? I know that it might not be as good looking, but as it is now, it's can be really hard to now what show that is. Specially if there also are no fan art.
Is that possible?
Thanks.
