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

Ok. 

I copied all movies out of the folders.

When I created complete new Moviesheets everything works fine.

But I have the tgmd files from my old wdtv gen 2 and wanted to use them so i can quickly change the the moviesheets.

 

But when I change with metadata there is a blackscreen and the nthe normal background.

 

Any advice?

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

rezmer,

 I assume that  you selected the 'Create from Metdata' option? Did the 'Using existing metadata files' screen then appear?

 

What settings did you define.  The main issue with using TGMD files to auto-convert to a new theme is that you need to make sure that the information, images etc  that the target theme requires (Black Mamba in this case) is in the TGMD file already.

 

For instance if you convert from TinWarble's Mojo, then the Fanart1,2 and 3 images than Black mamba uses won't be present.

 

The TGMD file is simply a ZIP archive containing information from the last run of Thumbgen. Open the TGMD file and check that all the images that you need for Black Mamba are actually there.

 

Hope that helps somewhat

 

 

Bodders

If this helped, please consider giving Kudos, thank you...

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

Hey,

 

@bodders: I had the old Lesters moviesheets. That explains everything :smileyhappy:.

Thanks a lot!

 

 

New Question. I'm now making my Tv Show Moviesheets.

Everything works fine, but is it possible, that thumbgen automaticly chosses the episode picture as fanart1? It's                    annoying to do it for every episode...

 

Thanks in advance

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

it's a lottery it will keep on picking the episode image randomly, ztrust and I had the discussion before, I wasn't able to reproduce it.
