Movie Genre fanart - R-Nol - 2010-10-07
I am new to XBMC, and I just love the Night skin.
But I can not figure out how to use the genre fanart. I downloaded genre fanart, named it "genre".jpg (like Action.jpg) and I placed al my files in a folder I created called genrefanart.
So the path is: "C:\Program Files\XBMC\addons\skin.night\media\extras\genrefanart\Action.jpg" but it just does not work.
Besides, if I change the moviegenres/action.jpg image, the genre icon in XBMC remains the same.
Am I forgetting something or doing something wrong?

2x check, if you also installed Night via addon Repo, that you don't have a copy in C:\Users\****\AppData\Roaming\XBMC\addons

I did indeed install Night via addon first, but after that I installed via git.
Have deleted C:\Users\**\Roaming\XBMC now, but i still don't see any fanart.
Thanks for the quick reply, but what shoul I do now?

OK, reinstalled everything and now it works great, thnx .
But still one little problem, first I added some genre fanart I used before, and now I would like some other images. But although I have changed them in the genrefanart folders, the fanart in XBMC remains the same.
Can I refresh the fanart in some way? Thnx for helping.

Should just be a simple refresh or restart of the skin or XBMC. Images inside the /media folder do not get chached...

Restarted XBMC a few times and als chose another skin and went back to Night again, but still the old images appear.
How must I do a refresh?

I did 2x check and yes for some reason it does seem to be cached. Delete the userdata\Database\Textures.db will clear that up...

Thanx everything is ok now. Looking awesome, loving the skin. Thanx again for your help, would never have found it myself.
