Nothing special, if you into clearART then here is a mod for it - Download. If you have clearART and store them in the root of the TV folder then you're good to go:
***UPDATE***
Link now has corrected visible condition





Here are the files if the Xpirence team wants to make it a skin setting to enable...just crtl+f the word "clearart" to see what I put in

[XBMCG33K]

I absolutely think we should add this!

EDIT: How do the cleararts need to be labeled?

[mcborzu]

My bad...the first link line 14 should be:

<visible>VideoPlayer.Content(episodes)</visible>

not

<visible>VideoPlayer.Content(episodes) + Skin.HasSetting(clearART)</visible>

The second link you have to check a setting under Toggles>General to use it.

The code to display clearART is:

<texture>$INFO[Player.FolderPath]../clearart.png</texture>
<texture>$INFO[Player.FolderPath]/clearart.png</texture>

meaning it works for the 2 common ways people store TV shows:

TV shows/
-----Lost
-----all .avi's here

or seperated by season folders:

TV Shows
------Lost
----------Season 1
----------All .avi's here

I use the second way and I assume the majority of people do too:

[XBMCG33K]

Still not working for me. My tv shows are set up how you have the first option set: The Big Bang Theory>avi's-fanarts-cover images and clearart.png.

Tried it the way with settings toggle and nothing showed. Tried it with just the seekbar xml and still nothing is showing for me ... any other ideas?

EDIT: Removing <texture>$INFO[Player.FolderPath]../clearart.png</texture> worked for me I now see the clearART...

This looks amazing but I am kinda confused about what all should be changed from the original mod, could someone repost the mod with the changes, sorry I am just a real noob and dont like messing with the XMLs cause I always seem to mess things up, also where do you guys get your clear are xbmcstuff ?

[XBMCG33K]

The first post has the update xml gareth

[gareth108]

Sorry buddy I should have read reavan's post on clearART before posting. I think my post(#4) in that thread is how it should work with two seperate blocks of code. I'm off to work today I see what he says about it...

I have not been able to get it to work either, not sure if i will like the look but you never know. and i did exactly as you stated in your earlier posts, will have another play later

@mcborzu We have added this to our official svn so when 1.0 comes out it will be available for all to use if they like.

Toggle option was not added because if you don't want clearart then you wouldn't have any clearart anyhow

[mcborzu]

Did you decide to go with two <controls> like this:

PHP Code:

<control type ="image">  
                <description>tv show image</description> 
                <posx>948</posx>      
                <posy>-26</posy>     
                <width>330</width>      
                <height>185</height>  
                <texture>$INFO[Player.FolderPath]../clearart.png</texture> 
                <aspectratio>keep</aspectratio> 
                <visible>VideoPlayer.Content(episodes) + Skin.HasSetting(clearART)</visible> 
            </control> 
            <control type ="image">  
                <description>tv show image</description> 
                <posx>948</posx>      
                <posy>-26</posy>     
                <width>330</width>      
                <height>185</height>  
                <texture>$INFO[Player.FolderPath]/clearart.png</texture> 
                <aspectratio>keep</aspectratio> 
                <visible>VideoPlayer.Content(episodes) + Skin.HasSetting(clearART)</visible> 
            </control> 


*above code was from my skin

That way both bases are covered, both store all files in TV show folder or seperated by Season folders.

[XBMCG33K]

This is the code:

Code:

<!-- Clear Art Code Revisions 27711 needed or higher -->
                        <control type="image">
                            <description>ClearART</description>
                            <posx>950</posx>    
                            <posy>534</posy>    
                            <width>330</width>    
                            <height>185</height>
                            <texture>$INFO[Player.FolderPath]/clearart.png</texture>
                            <aspectratio>keep</aspectratio>
                            <visible>VideoPlayer.Content(episodes)</visible>
                        </control>
                        <control type="image">
                            <description>ClearART</description>
                            <posx>950</posx>    
                            <posy>534</posy>    
                            <width>330</width>    
                            <height>185</height>
                            <texture>$INFO[Player.FolderPath]../clearart.png</texture>
                            <aspectratio>keep</aspectratio>
                            <visible>VideoPlayer.Content(episodes)</visible>
                        </control>
