Not to worry

 

I'll keep experimenting and see what I come up with.

Re: BLACK MAMBA V1.5 (Theme Update April 27th 2012)

Hello all,

New to the forum and to WD Media equipment.  I see there is a link to download black mamba for SMP.  Am I correct that this is compatable for SMP?  I don not have a HUB.  Thanks

Hi to the Doctor, and welcome to the forum.

 

I own the SMP model and can confirm that the Black Mamba does work with this model and I have had no side effects to using this theme for weeks. Just make sure when you install from the web installer that the Black Mamba theme is the only files within the zip file.

 

Have Fun

Re: BLACK MAMBA V1.5 (Theme Update April 27th 2012)

Hi,

 

Just a quick question to save me having to page back through dozens of posts...  Were there any changes to the ThumbGen sheets in 1.4 final or 1.5?  I'm using 1.4 preview and want to know if I have to regenerate all my sheets.

 

Thanks!

Thanks for your response.  I was able to get the theme loaded and spent hours processing my movie files.  Everything looks good with the exception that the sheet does not come up.  I am not sure if this is a "settings" issue or if I missed a step somewhere along the road.  From what I can tell once you process the movie files and have the 4 seperate files that pertain to the movie ie. .mkv, .jpeg, .xml etc.. the rest is compiled on the SMP to display the images.  What do you think? 

 

Also, for the folder icons.  Are they always the "gold dvd's" or should there be something else in its place? Kindof hard to tell the difference between folders when they all have the same icon. 

 

I dont know, but I feel like I am missing something.  Any ideas?

you need to be more precise, there has been changes to some templates and additions to the TV templates. If the name of the sheet is identical you don't need to update. Compare the name of the individual sheets you have in use. Movie3 and TV3 are the most recent ones.

folder icons = folder.jpg otherwise it shows the golden Bluray or the first jpg image in the folder

if your folder shows the golden Bluray that implies you have no JPG files in this folder.

The sheets only work in the Gallery View which is the mode with the 8 thumbnails on the bottom of the screen.

Something is wrong in your settings and nobody can know what is wrong because the description is not giving any clues. In this whole process is no "ect." :smileyhappy: it is crucial to have accurate file names (bottom of page 14 in the manual) and it is crucial to have the exact settings in thumbgen as on page 9 & 10 in the manual. Most of the times people are missing the "movie info" settings and the "input/output naming" settings. The important stuff is in red boxes.
