Andy, I just tried the season level fanart and nothing came up. My folder structure is the same as yours...

1. Tried just putting fanart.jpg in my season 2 folder-nothing
2. Rescan source and information refresh-nothing

My myvideonav.xml code on the skin I'm working on is:
PHP Code:
<control type="largeimage">
            <include>
Dimensions_Fullscreen</include>
            <
texture background="true">$INFO[Fanart.Image]</texture>
            <
aspectratio>scale</aspectratio>
            <
fadetime>400</fadetime>
            <include>
VisibleFadeEffect</include>
            <
visible>!IsEmpty(Fanart.Image)</visible>
        </
control>
        <
control type="largeimage">
            <include>
Dimensions_Fullscreen</include>
            <
fadetime>400</fadetime>
            <
texture>$INFO[ListItem.Property(Fanart_Image)]</texture>
            <
aspectratio>scale</aspectratio>
            <include>
Animation_CommonFade</include>
            <
visible>![Skin.HasSetting(hidefanart) | Control.IsVisible(58) | Control.IsVisible(56)]</visible>
        </
control

Didn't seem to work in Transparency or Confluence either....I'm on r27125

I'm referring to r1102 Beta x64, however, I will find an example when I get home and get back to you.

Ok... that explains it. Then it's already fixed in the new builds.... the last batch of test releases are still available on http://www.mediafire.com/embermm.

Season level fanart is CONFIRMED working in XBMC rev27017 with Aeon Showmix. I cannot get it to work with anything else! Tried Alaska, Confluence and Temmi2000 (Aeon65). I use Showmix anyway so i'm delighted.

Do you have a link or anything that shows all the files that XBMC supports that are not in the wiki? Would be helpful to me because, again, I don't use XBMC for TV Shows so I just have to go off of what I read.

ok, just tried my database in Confluance, and you seem to be correct, i have used my skin for that long. i have begun to think that it's features are standard Smile, sorry aboout that. but if you could add support for this i would gladly make a donation for it to be included. i think, there are others that would use this feature, i could make a patch file for confluance for them ?

I have done some more research to the Youtube trailers issue, and it seems that Youtube blocks access to the direct mp4 link when you already used it once. The following EMM generated link to a Bruno trailer:
Code:
http://www.youtube.com/get_video?fmt=18&video_id=v4EneHPu6i8&t=vjVQa1PpcFPc2CdSNih9N10ZmjPeFXwKvAdg416CBFE%3D
worked yesterday, but now I can not open it, while the main youtube site is still accessable.

Edit: When I browse to the exact same Bruno trailer on youtube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v4EneHPu6i8&t), and create a link to the mp4 using the 'Downloadhelper' Firefox extension the link is:
Code:
http://www.youtube.com/get_video?video_id=v4EneHPu6i8&t=vjVQa1PpcFO87eSzLwULi90Md8AVvTluZVnOHlAOsPE%3D&fmt=18
and this link works! Maybe the way you create links need to be altered? Notice how the '&fmt=18' is placed at the end instead of the beginning, which is the only difference I can see. I tried downloading twice from that second link and it works so far...

I strongly beleive that youtube is changing direct links from time to time. Maybe daily or so. Maybe only for HD, I am not sure. Thus including direct URLs in the nfos, instead of downloading them and storing locally does not make so much sense in my opinion.

No, the URL is still the same. Do you have any info that backs up your statement about youtube changing the links?

The only thing that's 'changed' is the position of '&fmt=18' and that is because EMM puts that part in the beginning. I wonder if the link will remain working if that part of code gets placed at the end of the link. The thing that didn't make it work was that part of the code...there is no reason to believe the link has changed pshysically on youtube's end.

So far, it works.

wow, just come across this software and its awesome, its been really really helpful for fixing my film library Big Grin

The Frame Extraction button is highlighted, I click on it, but nothing happens after that. The movie is never loaded and frames are never available to select.

What file format are your movies in? You do know this feature doesn't work for ISOs, don't you?

Hmmm? Are you saying that your above mentioned two links are the same except the placement of '&fmt=18'? I don't think so.

Did I misunderstand something?

No, I stand corrected. My comparision stopped at the beginning and end part of the code Wink Excuse me.

So basically inserting the streaming youtube link is not usable? That's a bummer!
