As far as I can tell, there are no tags for TV Shows yet. See here.
The Tags node you see under TV Shows->Files is actually the same one you see under Movies->Files.

Settings->Addons->Get Addons->XBMC.org Addons->Skin->Metropolis.

Huh, you are correct. I haven't actually used Tags and figured since it wasn't listed on the wiki that it didn't exist for TV Shows.
Anyhow, I'll add it, but unless you're pulling from Passion, you won't see the change until the next skin release.

Passion is another repository for addons for XBMC. We use it to distribute nightly builds of Metropolis. They are to be considered unstable -- which means we might break things from time-to-time. But if you want changes earlier (since we tend to do official releases roughly quarterly), this is how you'd get at them.
You can get the repo addon here.

Hi Jingai,
I have the option enabled to show clearart in the OSD when playing a series/movie. Also have downloaded my clearart in the series folder on my NAS.
The art however is not showing in the OSD. Any ideas what im doing wrong?
testen it on MacBook Air and AppleTV2.
Many thanks!

Not at all trying to be rude, but I really don't understand what you're asking here.

You need to run Artwork Downloader. Configure it to use local art if you already have art on-disk you want to use.
I know it seems counter-intuitive to have to run AD since you have art on-disk already, but the database entries that Metropolis looks for for the extra art are not created unless you do.

Looks fantastic!
I'd love to have an option for the home menu to NOT wrap. I only use Movies, Tv, Weather, Settings, and Shut Down.
If I could have all five icons span the screen without wrap, that'd make for the ultimate skin.

Just make it 'intelligent'.. if you have less than 'x' items enabled, it dosen't wrap.. if it does, it does.

It's not as easy as that. The attribute is in a spot that XBMC doesn't allow to be variable at run-time. There may be a way around this, but..
..besides that, it's one of about 30 issues that need to be addressed with Metropolis, and neither Stoli nor I have decided to push this one to the top, so it just hasn't gotten the brain cycles it needs to be solved. That's really all it comes down to
