Is it possible to move the Movie Premiere Date... just it overlaps the Movie Badges and so not very clear.

If you have installed the fonts it won't overlap, without fonts it doesn't work

as updated in the original post... check out This Thread for CD Covers, Artist Covers, Folder Thumbnails etc...

you won't need xml files with this theme but it doesn't hurt to generate them anyways. I just generated covers for 600 folders in less than 1 hour and it works super fine. Give Drizzt Kudos, it is my understanding that he wrote that tool himself.

weird... font are installed as i can see them in MS-WORD. etc.

copy uploaded.

only a minor querk...thanks

you are using the wrong flags, that's why it says in the instructions to copy the common folder into the templates folder and accept to overwrite the files. During the time themers have changed the flags because they didn't know how to change the path in thumbgen designer, my common folder will bring yours back to the original state + some extras

I have noticed there is no cover where it is supposed to be. this might be the way your common folder is setup or it's based on the file name. Rename the file to

How.To.Train.Your.Dragon.DVD.avi

or

How.To.Train.Your.Dragon.Bluray.avi

or

How.To.Train.Your.Dragon.HDTV.avi

or

How.To.Train.Your.Dragon.BDrip.avi

and the cover will show and it will add itself to thumbnail if you are selecting the Movie Thumbs template as an extra sheets and rename it according to the instructions... The covers make a huge difference in my opinion and basically all you have to do is to include the ".bluray" somewhere into the file name.

Dev..

I didn't have a common folder originally so the only folder in the TEMPLATES folder is yours. so thats a odd one.

my filename that movie is named

how.to.train.your.dragon-dvdrip.avi

thanks.

*edit* i have double checked and my screen does match with your instructions in image TG 03 General Tab.jpg,

i have also renamed the file to .dvdrip instead of - but i still don't get those lovely DVD covers.

Question though, in Common folder you have different DVD cover styles.. so how does it pick the one to use?

strange indeed since those on your moviesheet are not even in my common file this means something is there in the path where the original files should be, in example

VideoFormat Name="xvid" Text="XviD" Image="%PATH%\..\Common\video_format\xvid.png" is for the xvid flag

as long my common folder is in the Thumbgen Templates folder your moviesheet is literally impossible, you should check that again (common folder goes into thumbgen/templates)

the movie should be named how.to.train.your.dragon.dvdrip.avi (it needs the period)

it checks in the filename for the source information and displays the corresponding file
