Fanart delay in new SVN...help with

ekim232 · 2009-01-20, 11:14

I have updated my Xbox with the latest SVN to test out the fanart in music, and I noticed something different with my tv and movie fanart.

In my previous version my fanart would load automatically as I switched between movies or TV show. Now it will do a small delay and show the main screen picture (tv with the shark) before going to my fanart.

What is the best way to go about removing that so it goes flawlessly into my fanart as it did previously? Or even just a blank screen like it would before if there was a delay for some reason.

I have all my fanart and icons stored on my harddrives with the video files, so it is not pulling them from the web.

This would be the reason, how to fix is another matter:

I just removed it in the SVN for now until I can figure out a nicer way to show it

@ekim232: What version of XBMC are you using? As far i know the last t3ch compilation is rev16762 (2008-12-30) - int this version fanarts load in "old-fashioned" way...

I am using 17131.

After looking at what changes where made, would it go back to the old way if I removed the following..

<texture fallback="background-videos.jpg" diffuse="Fanart_Diffuse.png">$INFO[Fanart.Image]</texture>

and put back...

<texture diffuse="Fanart_Diffuse.png">$INFO[Fanart.Image]</texture>

I was also going to try and add the code lines that were added for music fanart into my previous build to see if it would work there. Do you see any issues with that?

I appreciate your time and quick responses.
