Thank You very much digitalhigh !
You're welcome.
@Fernferret -
Don't worry, my code isn't going to change at all. At least not for the studios. ;)

haha i know, I think this is AWESOME but djh changes his flags code too much for me to maintain it right now. I should be able to do it this weekend, if time permits
--FF
I'm just trying to add so that when it finds xvid in studio, that the sddvd.png comes up, and when it find MPEG Audio in the studio, that my mp3.png comes up. Obviously i've missed something.
FernFerret
2009-04-29, 03:27
search for every instance of this:
<texture>flags/divx.png</texture>
<visible>substring(listitem.filename,divx)</visible>
and replace with this:
<texture>flags/sddvd.png</texture>
<visible>substring(listitem.filename,divx)</visible>
do similar with your mpeg audio.
--FF
And because I was using your media flags that took it out of the studio tag instead, will it just be
<texture>flags/sddvd.png</texture>
<visible>substring(listitem.studio,divx)</visible>
instead of
<texture>flags/sddvd.png</texture>
<visible>substring(listitem.filename,divx)</visible>
FernFerret
2009-04-29, 03:56
Correct, that part that you bolded simply tells it where to look for the tag (which I think is much more preferable to have it ALL in the nfo)
I just cut and pasted that code straight out of GIT.
---FF
and when it find MPEG Audio in the studio, that my mp3.png comes up.
This should be working by default in the latest releases? _djh kindly added it. Is it not?
FernFerret
2009-04-29, 04:22
I think he was using my autogenerated files. They are outdated, but I'm not going to release another version until djh_ finalizes his mediaflags code.
or people REALLY want me to do it :p

Just to let everyone know (or let everyone down), my version is not being updated either right now. It seems to work for me with the github release, but apparently it's not the only version out there.
Anyway, it would be really nice if _djh let us know what the final version of the code would look like.
Cheers

2009-04-29, 05:05
Just a small note: I found in the latest GIT version (obtained an hour ago or so) that this line is needed after line 844 to make mp3 tags work in Multiplex:
<control type="image" id="84">
<include>Furniture_PanelMediaFlagsVars</include>
<texture>flags/mp3.png</texture>
<visible>substring(listitem.studio,mp3) | substring(listitem.studio,MPEG Audio)</visible>
</control>
--FF
Thats what it needed FernFerret, thanks for the help.
Forgive me for posting this in a thread for movie studio icons....
But I have a question regarding the icons for Dobly True HD and DTS-MA and I keep running into deadends. When using Aeon and Media Info Plus, how do you get them to show up??? I know that if you plug in "dts" you get dts and if you use "AC-3" you get Dolby Digital to show.
This would elude to another question.....what about Dolby Digital EX or DTS ES?
Again, sorry for the input, but would really like to get some info on how to do this.
Thanks so much

Guys, just checking: does anyone of you have an updated mystudios.xml file for the Media Info Plus? Or perhaps anyone knows of a way to prepare one easily, without having to type all the names by hand?
Cheers
P.S. Added Bazmark to the list
http://www.fernferret.com/xbmc/mediaflags/Aeon/media/flags/bazmark.png
P.S.II - added 8 new icons to FF's site.

Ok i think I understand your correctly:
Current Functionality:
It will either do Dolby Digital or DTS, the EX / ES are not supported. If the string contains dts, then it will show the DTS logo, if the string contains DTS ES, it will show the DTS logo. This personally is good enough for me, but maybe i'm misunderstaning your question.
Also i use XBMC + MFU which currently only supports DTS/AC-3, so I guess you could make new flags, and make new tags, and then it would work, but maybe i'm not understanding you correctly.

Just figured I'd throw this here while on the topic of media flags..
My flags all work properly (Studio/Source/Res/Audio) but for whatever reason, when on the movie info window, the audio flag doesn't show up. It shows the source, res and IMDB rating with a blank spot where the audio flag should be. Anyone know the file to change/code to add in which I can get this to show up?
Definitely some great work from everyone involved. Some of the best work I've seen in the past 5 years or so that I've been involved with this. Keep it up.

Is this view you're referring to the one where you press "i"?
Are you using Auriga? (If so when did you download it?)
If you answered Yes, and <= 4 days ago, then I'd like to see one of your lines from your .nfo files, if not, then download a newer revision of AEON/Describe to me the screen you're talking.

I'll chime in here :D
Since my first manually modified list was off, i created a tool to do it for me.
studioconvert.exe (on mip website) will take your Includes_MediaFlags.xml and parse it out to mip's mystudio2.xml file (build 2891 + required for mip)
I parse all the <control type="image" id="81"> into mip's studio object and then write the xml file..
short how to
put .exe file and Includes_MediaFlags.xml into same directory
run .exe file
copy mystudios2.xml to mip install directory
copy the media images to mips folder for those C:\Program Files\mediainfoplus\customimages\media\flags (not needed, but they will show up in mip if ya have them in that folder)
I could add this to MIP update, however I'd need some version to reference or it would download the same thing over and over. Open to ideas on getting that part to work. If it's possible to output to mip's format, that would work as well.
FernFerret - let me know if the source would help with anything.. it's mostly regex with some string splits and a few char replacements so that only one studio is in each studio object.

Well, how hard would it be for mip to autoscrape from my website? I've been meaning to add some xml. Could that work? Or maybe i'm misunderstanding your post.

webparse is very easy to do, would be easier if there was a direct link to Aeon's specific xml file only (like the one that is generated) as that one is setup for parsing already.
if it's just a single page, i could just update everytime (text only version of the page is tiny).. heck i could even then check the image folder and push the image if it's not there already.. yup, that would work perfect i think.
I've been following this thread for a while now and I think the work you guys are doing is great.
Since Auriga I know some people have being having problems with getting these to work, I have not got it all working fine, so I thought I would upload it so everyone can enjoy.
Works with Auriga (29th April 2009)
Changed: All studio flags are now white
Changed: Includes_Mediaflags.xml shows studio flags in both Multiplex and Showcase
Added: AAC audio flag and reference, works in both Multiplex and Showcase
Added: Weinstein Company studio flag
Fixed: Sweedish Film Institute interfering with Lucasfilms
http://rapidshare.com/files/227439535/MediaFlags.zip (http://rapidshare.com/files/227439535/MediaFlags.zip)
I hope this helps a few people until Auriga development slows down and FernFerret can adapt his scripts.
I have a couple of requests though, could people start adding the film flags in white to FernFerrets web site and could someone please create a flag for 'The Wild Bunch' (for the film The Wrestler).
I may be able to generate one from my script, i think that's what your pm was about.

Sorry didnt mean to confuse you.
For example: If I have a Blu-ray movie that is DTS Master Audio (DTS MA) or Dolby True HD, I would like for those icons to show up just like DTS or Dolby Digital does. If your not sure what the logo's look like, they can be found on Dolby's and DTS websites.
I dont know if they are supported as of yet or, if they are, what I need to put in Media Info Plus to get them to show up.
Thanks again
The problem with this is that if you did add Dolby True HD and DTS Master Audio as media flags when XBMC scans nfo for the film it will pick up the like this:
'DTS' Master Audio
'DTS Master Audio'
meaning that it will try to show both flags in the same place, giving a horrid overlap.
The only solution I can think of off the top of my head would be to reduce the size of the DTS logo and put it slightly to the lefthand side. Save it as DTS.png and the add the MA to the right hand side, leaving the DTS in the same position. Save this as DTSMA.png
Then when XMBC overlays the two images you would never know as the bits that say DTS will be perfectly matched.
I'll give it a go and see if it works.

You can use and ("+"), or ("|") and not ("!") statements so have if "DTS" and not "DTS Master Audio" you know it is just "DTS" and so on.

As an example of the logos Im looking for check out the following:
DTS-HD Master Audio - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:DTS-HD-MA.svg
Dolby True HD - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Dolby_TrueHD.svg
Thanks again
So which symbol would I need to just give DTS?
What is the file type for DoblyTrueHD? Is it eac-3?
This is what I've done with what I know:
DTS (http://img524.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dtsu.jpg)
DTS Master Audio (http://img165.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dtsma.jpg)
http://rapidshare.com/files/227507550/HD_Audio.zip (http://rapidshare.com/files/227507550/HD_Audio.zip)
You would have to change the nfo for the films so DTS master audio read 'DTSMA' and DolbyTrueHD said 'DolbyTrueHD'.
It works and it doesn't look bad, but seeing as I don't have and films with these I wont be using it.

You can use and ("+"), or ("|") and not ("!") statements so have if "DTS" and not "DTS Master Audio" you know it is just "DTS" and so on.
Proper syntax would be
For the MA tag
<visible>substring(listitem.studio(DTS) + [substring (listitem.studio, Master Audio) | substring(listitem.studio,MA)]</visible>
For the Regular Tag
<visible>substring(listitem.studio(DTS) + ![substring (listitem.studio, Master Audio) | substring(listitem.studio,MA)]</visible>
Thanks digitalhigh, if this works I may as well add it to my files.
Just tried that, it didn't work. Nothing would show for either DTS or DTSMA. Any ideas?

Hey, I just noticed I accidentally left a space between "listitem.studio," and MA. Delete those spaces and try again.
Ok fixed it, so I've updated my complete package.
Added: DTS Master Audio - Must be labeled as DTSMA in the NFO
Added: Dolby True HD - Must be labeled as dolbytruehd in the NFO

He has included all the aeon folders, simply copy and paste the contents of MediaFlags (once you've unzipped it) to your skin folder, presuming your skin folder is named "Aeon"

The problem is, that this is a temporary solution. When any new icons come through, someone would have to update the package. This is just a LOT of work. Which is why we have the script.
The reason the script is not working now, is because djh_'s code changes so frequently. If a big change happens again, and it may, then this pack too will become nullified.
I will get the new Audio ones put into my script, along with all of the other fixes.
As previously stated, look for an update this weekend.

I won't be starting my own thread with this, as all of the real work was done by Halibutt (images) and FernFerret (code) all I did was a lot of leg work, Invert all 130 something images and copy/edit FernFerrets code into my Includes_Mediaflags.xml in all the right places, package it and upload it.
I have done this as a hold over until FernFerret is happy with his scripts. But until then I will try to keep this package upto date.

When you exstract it you will need to copy Includes_Mediaflags.xml from 720p into your 720p folder in the skin, then copy the contents of the media/flags folder into the media/flags folder in your skin. Accept any request to Replace files.
Once that is done it will work. If there are any films you wish to label as DTSMA or True HD then in the folder for that movie there should be an NFO file, open it in notepad.
There will be a line that reads something like <studio>Tweenth Centry Fox / 720p / DTS / eng </studio>
If you change the 'DTS' to 'DTSMA' and refresh the movies details in XBMC it will show up with the DTSMA logo, like wise if you label it as 'dolbytruehd'
I hope this helps.

The evolution? Really? Come on dude...I don't wanna sound like an ass, but I have had TV network logos and MPAA ratings available and working through the same mechanism that MIP uses for the stuff for movies.
Fekker and I created this months ago. It works on the episode level for MPAA and network, and network logos for the show-level. I had to devise a special numbering system so that it would work at all.
What's worse, is I've been telling you guys that I already have a full set of flags for your disposal. The code is all in place. I just moved the flags to their own folders, and put it all in nice easy accessible files for you guys.
I dunno...it's frustrating to say something, say it again, say it a third time, and then still have you guys staring into a corner waiting for somebody to create icons that have already been created.
So look. Here:
http://code.google.com/p/xbmcserenity/source/browse/#svn/trunk
networklogos.xml
studiologos.xml
mpaalogos.xml
It's all right there. The icons are in the mediafolders. I don't know how much more I can gift-wrap this stuff for you guys...

It's true, what I meant, was the implementation in AEON.

Come on dude, I wasn't trying to be a jerk. But it is frustrating when I do stuff specifically to help you out, and the impression I get is that it only really matters if it involves Aeon.
Take from that whatever you will, but I was not trying to call you lazy. I just don't know how else to get the point across that I have a lot of stuff everybody could benefit from, and nobody seems to care until DJH puts it out there.

2009-04-30, 19:51
Guys, whatever you do, you're doing good. I got lost a while ago and I have no idea where are we. I'm not even sure what's the fuzz with the new media view in Aeon and I have no idea where is it. So, I'll just stick to preparing new icons and leave the coding stuff, compatibility with other skins and so on to you, all right? Otherwise we'd have a zillion packs here, each almost the same, with different errors inside. A complete mess.
The way it is now, I'm pretty happy with what we achieved and all seems to work fine for me: only one of my films doesn't have a studio icon and the rest shows up just fine.
A couple of questions though: does Serenity require white-on-transparent images, or are black-on-transparent all right? Or is there some other reason we should switch to that colour? If there is, I can stick to that, no problem, just tell me what to do (8 new upcoming).
Cheers

Unfortunately, it would appear that white-on-transparent are necessary. I thought I could apply a colordiffuse of white to the image, but because it's black, it doesn't show up at all.
White would probably also be better on a whole, simply because it allows for any color desired to be rendered. Black icons can't be tinted.

2009-04-30, 21:36
I think that since we have my script, which will show the images correctly when they're white(which is preferred for both skins)
digital: I have a LOT of respect for Serenity, It runs GREAT on my linux server, where AEON cannot be handled. Not to get off topic, but (Oh dear lord please make this make sense...) I was not implying that you were Implying I was lazy, I was implying I am lazy.
I apologize, that since Day one I have promised Serenity support (Hell, I am even arrogant enough to put it in my sig!) and I have not listened to you.
My fault.
If I have time Tonight, Serenity Support will happen then (and by tonight I mean tomorrow morning, since It's gonna be an all-niter anyways).
Here is the Issue i've been beating around the bush with: My zip script CURRENTLY requires the Images to be in the directory that they will be zipped as, and I was simply too lazy to modify to work with Serenity.
Thank you for all of your work digital, Halibutt, and others that have contributed,

PS: I've always liked white images :)

www.brandsoftheworld.com and www.vectorlogos.com are the first two places I look when hunting for a logo. Most stuff can be found there, and they're stored in vector format, which means perfect quality. ;)
Also, I'm not sure who to address this to...but I took the liberty of inverting everything you had here (as of a few days ago). Should be a near-full set, if you want to replace them.
There are better images for Mirimax and Revolution studios here as well:

Also, I'm not sure who to address this to...but I took the liberty of inverting everything you had here (as of a few days ago). Should be a near-full set, if you want to replace them.
There are better images for Mirimax and Revolution studios here as well:

Awesome, thanks so much, I'll get my db updated this weekend with all white images. Did you use a batch program, or photoshop batch mode?

Batch? Haha...I just opened all of them and did some fast fingerwork. CTRL+I, Alt+F S ALT+F C, repeat...
I won't be starting my own thread with this, as all of the real work was done by Halibutt (images) and FernFerret (code) all I did was a lot of leg work, Invert all 130 something images and copy/edit FernFerrets code into my Includes_Mediaflags.xml in all the right places, package it and upload it.
I have done this as a hold over until FernFerret is happy with his scripts. But until then I will try to keep this package upto date.
When you exstract it you will need to copy Includes_Mediaflags.xml from 720p into your 720p folder in the skin, then copy the contents of the media/flags folder into the media/flags folder in your skin. Accept any request to Replace files.
Once that is done it will work. If there are any films you wish to label as DTSMA or True HD then in the folder for that movie there should be an NFO file, open it in notepad.
There will be a line that reads something like <studio>Tweenth Centry Fox / 720p / DTS / eng </studio>
If you change the 'DTS' to 'DTSMA' and refresh the movies details in XBMC it will show up with the DTSMA logo, like wise if you label it as 'dolbytruehd'
I hope this helps.
Just got home from work and tried it.....YOU ROCK!!! Worked exactly as you said. Thanks again for the help and the clear/precise instructions. REALLY appreciate it.

i have a few requests, not sure where u guys are getting the images so if u could point me in the right direction i would be glad to help find them.
Storyline Ent.
57th and Irving Productions
Land Films
Condemned Productions
Avnet (The Mighty Ducks Movies, even though i thought they were Disney)
Milshake Films
Elevation Filmworks
MTV Films

thanks guys! and again point in the right direction and i will gladly help in the searchI'll see what I can do.

@Only One Haze: As per request, I uploaded Storyline, MTV (one logo fits all; all the MTV companies use it and the Aeon engine would have a problem using many versions anyway - as long as names are similar), Condemned and 57th and Irving.
I could also find Avnet, but I'm not sure it's the same company. No luck with the others though. Any help?
Oh, I also uploaded some three more Polish studios: Oko, tor and Filmoteka Narodowa.
Cheers
FernFerret
2009-05-01, 13:06
Oko, tor
Do these studios have longer names that could be used/looked up via. I fear many of the three letter ones will either need custom code, which isn't a problem, or will have problems.

I'll update it to the new version later then, thanks for the heads up.

--FF
Yeah, there's always an option to use full names as IMDB does. The problem is IMDB is not flawless and sometimes gets the names wrong, especially for non-English names.
Another problem is that IMDB sometimes lists the same company/producer/studio several times under different names. This is the case with Oko, listed as:
Zespol Filmowy "Oko" (http://www.imdb.com/company/co0064517/)
Studio Filmowe Oko (http://www.imdb.com/company/co0013835/)
Also the same is true for Tor, listed on IMDB as:
Zespol Filmowy "Tor" (http://www.imdb.com/company/co0003136/)
Tor Film Studio (http://www.imdb.com/company/co0015427/)
Tor Films (http://www.imdb.com/company/co0249636/)
You know, it's like listing Warner Bros. and Warner Brothers as two different studios. I'm not sure if there's a way to set that straight. In addition, I believe I added to the fuzz as we already had Tor in our database, under different name... If there's a way to fix that, the new (white-on-transparent) icon for Tor should replace the previous one (I had to make up by myself).
Cheers
Another update then:
Fixed: Works correctly with lastest verison of auriga
Fixed: Weinstein studio flag not showing in Showcase

thanks againYeah, I found that one too, but gave up. Frankly, my skills are too low to make this bottle look good in just one colour (be it black or white): too much shading, too complicated text-on-graphics. I could do a text-only version (the font looks familiar), but I'm not sure that's what we're here for. Do they have a splash screen in films they make? If so, could you make a screenshot and post it here? The better the quality, the easier it is to think of something.
Or perhaps any of you guys have a better idea?

Also, I don't know what you're using to get networks to display, but if you look at the code for Serenity (networklogos.xml), you can see that Fekker and I assigned a numeric value system to TV networks so that you can pull the information at the Show level.
This data is already set up in MIP...all you need to do is enable it and rescan your library, and presto...you have MPAA rating and Network information available.
It's like 1 is Adult Swim, 2 ABC, 3 A&E, etc...
So save yourself some time, and check out the set I've already made. ;)

I think the easiest way is to just keep the TV network icons numbered, and hopefully fernferret can add something to the upload area so that the items could be automatically numbered or something?
Here's the network file I use...in theory, you could probably just include the file and have it work in Aeon...idk what djh is using ATM. Dunno why I'd tell you that tho. Go serenity! ;)

I had to mod the Aeon to check for show titles to assign the icon (I got the code seed from Djh in one of his commits). Not exactly the hardest thing to do but it's not entirely streamlined.

Scrolling, the problem is we can only use one colour. So, it's best to convert the images to white-on-transparent before resizing - it gives the best effects.
We already have Peace Arch, but the rest of your proposals are fine, I'll see to them.

For krypt2nite's TV show flag mod just replace your Viewtype_Multiplex.xml with this Download (http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/1044719/Flags/Viewtype_Multiplex.xml)
I'll try this mod out later, when I've fixed my TV show NFOs.
Sorry guys the last one I put up didn't work with the TV show flags.
Now I have it working I am quite impressed with it, so I will include the mod in my pack.

LOL...yeah. What's funnier is that I've been trying to tell you guys that these have been in existence for quite some time now.
Show titles? That was actually my initial approach, until I realized it would be downright maddening to try to account for every television network, let alone every single show under every single network. ;)
On show level, MIP writes the numeric value to Listitem.rating. On episode level, it's the director tag (which has a lot of info)
<director>Fuminori Kizaki / netSpike TV / / / SDp / XVID / MPEG Audio / 2ch / eng</director>
Due to the fact that network names could throw false positives, we decided to append every one with the prefix (net), meaning all your searches can be like (substring(listitem.director, netABC)). Although i'd probably just recommend you start with the code from serenity and go from there, as all the definitions should be right on.
As you can see, it also uses the same info about resolution/channel/codec etc...

DH...question about the Weinstein logo from your site..it appears to be too tall, and maybe not white?
thanks again for your help everything else is wonderful!!
are you using a 4:3 screen, that's probably why it appears stretched

Sorry...I know I made a good Weinstein logo once already...must've gotten lost in translation.
Here are proper logos for Bluesky, Dreamworks Animation, Centropolis, Weinstein, and Peacearch.

1024x768 is a 4:3 ratio.
If your screen supports 16:9 you should be using a proper resolution like 1280x720... that's why everything looks too tall.

'Sokay...I think the weinstein logo I just made is far far superior to the previous one I'd done. I actually took and masked out triangle-shaped gradient areas, then layered them to create the W...as opposed to trying to invert and delete the black parts.

If you're using Aeon, a lot of stuff is going to be stretched because it's all natively 720 like Hikari said. But, you can get around this by going into the includes files and adding changing these lines in the includes file:
<include name="Furniture_ShowcaseMediaFlagsVars">
<posy>647</posy>
<width>110</width>
<height>72</height>
<include>Animation_CommonFade</include>
<include>Animation_HideShowcase</include>
<include>Conditions_ShowcaseIsVisible</include>
<colordiffuse>73FFFFFF</colordiffuse>
</include>
<include name="Furniture_ShowcaseMediaFlagsVars">
<posy>647</posy>
<width>110</width>
<height>72</height>
<include>Animation_CommonFade</include>
<include>Animation_HideShowcase</include>
<include>Conditions_ShowcaseIsVisible</include>
<colordiffuse>73FFFFFF</colordiffuse>
<aspectratio>keep</aspectratio>
</include>
If the include name is something different in Auriga or w/e the name is now, then you'd just find that include and add the <aspectratio>keep</aspectratio> bit to it.
That should stop everything from stretching...this will also work on any other image that's stretched as a result of the different aspectratios...

and i know this is off topic, but what things would i have to add that to to get my movie thumbs to be proper AR? cuz man i never really noticed, but since it was mentioned i went and looked at the eye candy thread and boy are my thumbs skinny compared to his
I've changed my pack to include andyblac's TV show flag layout.

Scrolling, the problem is we can only use one colour. So, it's best to convert the images to white-on-transparent before resizing - it gives the best effects.
We already have Peace Arch, but the rest of your proposals are fine, I'll see to them.

Yeah. But wouldn't it be cool if there was a way to show colored studio icons.:cool:

Guys, the reason Weinstein looks bad is much more simple. Perhaps Serenity handles all those logos just fine, but it appears Aeon needs the logos to abide by two simple rules:
The image (including transparency) should be 161x109 pixels in size (other sizes may work, but let's stick to that format)
The logo itself (excluding transparency) must not be larger than approx. 125x83 pixels (that is no wider than 125 and no taller than 83 pixels). Larger images will be shown, but there are problems with them: they appear in wrong places, stick out of the screen and whatnot).
Really, been there, done that. Look at FF's EuropaCorp: it's too big and even at 1080 it crosses the screen's border. Let's just stick to the format _djh uses, all right?
Cheers
P.S. All the recent requests uploaded to our database (FF's site). Including Blue Sky, Weinstein, new Dreamworks, Centropolis and Summit. BTW, I cannot upload the images under someone else's name, only FernFerret can do that. Hope noone's offended.
P.S.2: I lost track of the various packs published here. Mine (1st post) is slightly outdated as I'm waiting for FF to publish his, but perhaps there is a better, more recent pack worth putting in the first post as a stop-gap? Just let me know.
P.S.3: Just in case, a question to authors of the flag packs: are there any flags there that were not yet uploaded to FF's site? Any flags lost along the way?
The Weinstein studio flag in my pack works fine.

This makes no sense to me.
For starters, the media flags in Aeon get downscaled to 110x72...which is not even the same aspect ratio as the 161x109.
Second, if you guys are generating the xml for the images, then you can control how they are displayed. So...I don't think that changing the aspect ratio to "keep" should be that big of a deal. You already have the code at your disposal...
My main reason for wanting the 100x200 that I use is to allows for better display of studios that may have wider images. Plus, 100x200 is a nice square number.
Third, I disagree with keeping the logos shrunk down to the middle of the image. This is a waste of space. IMHO, you should make the images take up as much room as possible, and then scale them to fit within the skin. This means better image quality.
I dunno. I'm not trying to get you to change Aeon's image format, but I will ask that you don't resize any images that came from me. Like I said...if you're generating the code for these images, I think it would be wiser to have big images that take up the whole frame as opposed to using a bunch of blank space...

My main reason for wanting the 100x200 that I use is to allows for better display of studios that may have wider images. Plus, 100x200 is a nice square number.Listen, when it comes to that .xml mumbo-jumbo, I'm dumber than a bunch of hammers. Really, I have no idea why I do what I do. I saw _djh do a great skin, so I assumed he knew what he was doing. I tested larger images (meaning: "logos taking up more of image's space", not: "logos with the transparent area larger than...") and they did not look fine on my tv. So I assumed _djh was right to pick the format he did. I didn't ask him why.
Having said that, if you believe your format works just as fine for Aeon - just let me know. I can shrink the logos to whatever size, it's all the same for me as long as they work. OTOH is consistency a question here? Should all logos be the same size?

(...)Like I said...if you're generating the code for these images, I think it would be wiser to have big images that take up the whole frame as opposed to using a bunch of blank space... Sure, the larger the image, the better the quality. Yet, from my experience the larger the logo, the less legible it is in Aeon: too large logos tend to be displayed only partially, with the rest being left outside the screen. Perhaps it's just my settings though.
Anyway, the bottom line here is that my hands are clean and I hide behind my ignorance. :) I will continue to stick to the format chosen by _djh unless someone tells me to change it. Should I? Anyone checked if digitalhigh's logos are displayed properly in Aeon?
Blue Sky, Weinstein, new Dreamworks, Centropolis and Summit are all done by me.You mean those I uploaded to FF's site? Nope, I made Dreamworks based on the image posted by Scrolling, same for Blue Sky and Cetropolis. Not that it really mattered, does it. :)

Here you go http://www.4shared.com/file/103124305/bea4f38a/Flags.html
For the 007 logo to work just use the name James Bond as your film studio for all your bond films in the studio tag and it will then show the logo, have included over 200 film tags + have updated the includes_mediaflags.xml to show all in multiplex and showcase views + the divx and the mp3 flags work too you need to name your films as Alien-divx.avi and similar for the rest of the files that go with the film hope this is usefull to you

I believe that my format is a better overall idea, not just for Aeon, but for Serenity and any other skins that may want to take advantage of these icons.
It's about the big picture. I played with Aeon last night, and if you add <aspectratio>keep</aspectratio> to the includes_mediaflagsvars, none of the icons are stretched anymore. Yes, a few may need to be shrunk a bit, but 90% of them looked fine.
Sure, the larger the image, the better the quality. Yet, from my experience the larger the logo, the less legible it is in Aeon: too large logos tend to be displayed only partially, with the rest being left outside the screen. Perhaps it's just my settings though.
Aspect ratio...should fix this.

This would work too. I'm pretty sure that the logic I used would work against your example tho...It displays the animation one when "dreamworks" and "animation" are in the string, and shows the reg. dreamworks one when "animation" is not found in the string. So if it came up as dreamworks SKG / Dreamworks Animation, it should still only display the dreamworks animation logo?

Look...I personally think that my format is a better overall choice. What djh has going does work fine for Aeon. I won't argue this point. But in the big picture, we should go for higher-quality logos across the board, and then shrink them to the appropriate size to work for w/e skin we want.
I personally know of another fellow who will most likely be using this set very soon, and I can imagine that he too would like to have some kind of consistency. And small(er) images with a lot of blank space just isn't very consistent...

My English is getting worse with every year, so I perhaps didn't make myself clear enough. I'm not defending _djh's format, I'm merely explaining why I chose to use it.
As long as your format works for Aeon - it's fine for me. And I mean the out-of-the-box working package for morons like myself, who have very little skills at scripting and simply want to make the thing work. If you're willing and able to prepare an easy-to-use pack for Aeon to be downloaded and installed in a fire-and-forget way - great.
In any way, I guess the best thing is to wait and see what FernFerret comes up with. After all his page seems like the best way to make a single repository of media flags for any project, including perhaps even those not related to XBMC. MIP already supports our flags, perhaps other projects would follow. As far as I understand if FF's successful at his coding mumbo-jumbo, we end up with a single package of images (whatever their size) coming in two variants, differing mostly in the .xml file attached, right? If that works out, we could simply update the images to some other format, as any size would work as long as the .xml file is right. Right?

This is really the point I'm driving at.
Basically, with a unified set of of images/standards for how these logos are going to be created, it would be quite simple for FF (or myself) to modify the code for any skin to utilize.
So simple, that it would literally require changing two lines of code. That's it.
I guess that the first step is to assemble ONE full pack with every single image in it, and make sure that they're all sized and scaled the same. The majority of these images are already pretty good, it's just that there are some that still render kinda small outside of Aeon.
If we can agree to that, then I'll go through and start redoing anything I see that's smaller if I have the time today. We should wait until we come up with a full set (and for FF to be around to discuss the topic), then upload everything and the changes can be made to the code in FF's script.
Cool?

Let's talk 'bout facts :)
my madagascar.nfo (made by MIP) shows :
<studio>DreamWorks SKG / / AVC / 720p / AC-3 / 6ch / fra / </studio>
and consequently, aeon dispays the dreamworks pictures flags, not the dreamworks animation one.
Anyway, I noticed it is the only dreamworks animation I've got in this case, all the others are correctly tagged... so I decided to change the tag in this particular nfo instead of changing the xml each time there will be an update :D
But there still could be a discution about this...
and it may be used for others like disney and it's sub-studios...
we could make a condition where studio=disney and genre=animation...

I see what you're saying. Just make sure that you also have !genre=animation in the regular dreamworks tag, and all should be well.
For languages...that's tricky. The most obvious solution would be to just get a translation for all the different variations of the word "animation"...or only make it work when substring(System.Language,English), and use the opposite to automatically render the standard Dreamworks tag when the system language is not english. ;)

Cofirmed to work with lastest release, 4th May 2009 (Midday)
Added: Studio Flags up to date
Fixed: Issue with the orginal Studio Cannal and the new Studio Cannal flag
Fixed: Dreamworks and Dreamworks Animation detection
As before includes Episode flags mod, if you don't wish it install don't copy the Viewtype_Multiplex.xml across
Download (http://rapidshare.com/files/229015264/MediaFlags.zip)
As I said before, as long as people still want it, I will kept this up to date untill FernFerret is happy with his scripts.Ok, I updated the first post with a link to this package - and reuploaded it to MediaFire for all those who are tired of RapidShare's limits. Hope you don't mind.
Cheers

I fixed this in my pack. You need to use 'Swedish Film Institute', as far as I can see thats what IMDB uses. SFI is 'Svenska Filminstitutet' and that uses 'Svenska Filminstitutet (SFI)'.

Shame. it would be nice to add some colour to them.
simply replace the black&white ones with coloured ones. no additional work needed on that issue.
Maybe I should try and add a option for updating/adding Media Flags to the XBMC Includes_MediaFlags.xml in my application Media Flags Updater?
i guess this would be sexy.
Ok I've updated my pack to include the new flags.
Added: Manga, Bandi, Paramount Vantage and Sony Classics studio flags
Fixed: Paramount/Paramount Vantage detection
Fixed: Sony/Sony Classic detection
Fixed: Comedy Central in Paramount detection
Tested and confirmed.

FernFerret - My pack contains all of the current images in white. You'll need a good default xml to start with, as some extra studios will interfer such as Fox Searchlight. I've uploaded a version without the extra flags, but the code to stop the current flags to interfer with each other.

Should be fixed, again I'm really pressed for time, so i'm not doing much (any) testing.
Now that we have some other admins, they know who they are, we can get all these nitpicky title-specific bugs fixed for ALL skins and ALL Icons.

Ahem...
Man, I really feel like I'm being a pest here... :sniffle:
Im using the latest version of Aeon with the Multiplex view and Im experiencing something strange and cant figure it out.
I have media flags for Dolby True HD and DTS-Master Audio so that those icons will show up. They were showing previously just perfect. Now for some reason I can only see them in the File view and Multiplex. If I choose Showcase....they disappear!??? DTS and Dolby Digital continue to show up fine in Showcase
I have no idea what could be causing this. The only thing I can think of is this started happening after the "light" "night" was implemented. I even toggled back and forth between the two and still not showing
Any thoughts??
Ok, I found the culprate, I had missed adding the code to one area.

No, it was the same one. I'll look for the newer one, but I just checked vectorlogos and brandsoftheworld.com and found that both sites' EPS files were the same. ;)
Also, you can use photoshop to open/resize an eps file quite easily. Not saying you have to, but if you wanted to know how to do it, it's that easy. :D

2009-05-13, 20:36
yeah, i know how, i have a degree in graphics, just dont have photoshop at home. yeah i also looked at brandsoftheworld and saw that too. only thing i can think of is maybe a screen cap of the new one. i think i saw that kiss kiss bang bang had the new logo when it comes on. I dont have the movie, but maybe someone else does, either way its cool.
and since these are vector logos wouldnt it be better to use illustrator? or are you guys rasterizing them when u make the .pngs?

I'm only getting 2 of the 5 possible Icons in Aeon.
Is there something wrong with this Studio line?
<studio>Warner Bros. Pictures / SDp / XVID / MPEG Audio / 2ch / </studio>
The MP3 AUdio tag shows in Showcase so there must be a problem in the latest Multiplex XML for that one, but not sure about the rest like Dolby.

2009-05-14, 14:36
Why 5?
You can get
- Studio
- Source
- Video
- Audio
from which the Source is read from the filename => if you only adjusted your NFOs you will get 3 at most. Furthermore I think DivX and XviD are not included in Aeon itself yet (unless this has changed in the mean time).

In that case my mistake, I assumed as I had the Dolby and Source it could include them already.
In that case there is just something wrong in the Multiplex XML thats not picking up showing the MP3 logo as it works in other views.

Bad Robot flag (try it and tell me)
http://i93.photobucket.com/albums/l66/reavenm/badrobot.png
I was thinking it would be good to have a folder under flags named something like decoration or something to put flags like the 007 logo and a lot more that are icons for movies samples below:

I can tell you...that's a lot of individual icons to account for. I mean, we thought the studio icons were a daunting task. Now try to consider a special icon for every movie or every series of movies? Damn son...that's a lotta work.

how do you put a custom icon to show up??what do you have to edit in the xml for it to grap it from the flag folder???
also I think that would be great to have custom icons be available. where could this be implemented in the nfo file and onthe actual skin?

yeah you maybe right, but I though in a sense of an individual thing, to implement in the skin it would be as you said a daunting task, but what the hell if you compare what was XBMC when it start on the xbox 1 at first and look what is now, thats a daunting task...

is the same as you use the 007 logo or the dc comic logo.
I think I read somewhere how to put an extra flag ... right know if you want the 007 or dc flag you have to replace the studio flag ...
if someone know the link to add an additional flag please post it.

All are added. Because they're made from screenies and not EPS files, I had to fudge the transparencies on the dark parts...please try them out and let me know how they look before I delete the PSD's...

You're welcome. Glad they worked. I'd test them in serenity...but...well...haha.
For our database people...we now have proper Network logo support available via the listitem.studio tag for TV shows. No more ghetto-tagging!

Hello
I'm looking for a flag where there would be noted in "Hard Drive". Writing by putting a design or even a picture of a hard disk
Thanks to that I can do.
Anyone have a chance to make one for Twisted Pictures? This would cover all the Saw movies.

Can someone do one for DNA Films?

Added to database. Check it out, I found an animated .gif of the whole barbed-wire sequence, I can literally create any state from that anim you like for the logo.

I searched high and low...can't find a picture to use. Get me a screenshot, and I'll make you one.

Added a nice pic of the umbrella logo as Resident Evil Productions.
Man...it would really be nice if I could use all these logos I'm creating with my own skin. ;)
Thanks for the Twisted Pictures there Digital, it looks real good.
By chance could someone make these two...TNT & AMC. I know they are currently out there, but I would like to see the TNT logo have a hollow circle with no fill and the AMC logo has some jagged edges and could look smoother.
Thanks to anyone who can help.

Bob yari is uploaded...
For some reason, TNT wouldn't save as a TV show. It's there...but the XML is wrong.

Thanks again Digital. Any chance you could make the Bob Yari one not have a fill too it? It is filled with a dark shade right now.
Thanks again for your great efforts on all this.
