Fanart possible?

This would be a good place to look:

https://github.com/stoffez/PlexConnect

I want to stay with the original one :)

Any ETA for any of these to be in ATV? This will finish IOS 6 design of PlexConnect :)

ETA is : when its done  ;)

I installed the Stoffez fork but I get trailers unavailable in the preview screen.

Please can someone explain my school boy error?

Bad aTV firmware version? You need >=6...

that fork is not up to date yet aswell.. still trying to solve some issues.. stay on the main branch for now

I’m on the lastest firmware on my atv3 so don’t think it’s that, but have switched back to main branch for now.

Alright.. my github is updated with my commits.. if u like them.. use em :)

Season_list.xlm

Episode.xml

MoviePrePlay.xlm

Baa has also got the files for later inregration, still some stuff that need to be fixed before it can be pushed to the Main branch..

enjoy

OBS!! It need iOS6 to run!! OBS!!!

Good job - now works great.

Nice one!

really nice, love it :)

I've added the Fanart to the Season_Coverflow.xml, this will show the banner also in the coverflow view for shows, you only have to copy the part of the season_list.xml at the same position. Only Problem the black gradient at the bottom is missing.. Perhaps someone has an idea why?

I've seen Fanart is shown in the PrePlay Movies in your Git, is there a plan to bring this to tv shows aswell? The Fanart in Movies Pre Play also shifts the Movie Details and the buttons outside the screen on my atv, but I think you know this issue.

But again very nice work thanks a lot :)

Yeah i never did anything to the season_list only cause i dont use it myself.. :)

If the buttons end up outside of ur screen u can try play with this line


change the 720 numbers to higher or lower and se if that helps

if it dont u can just remove this line

                
                  {{SETTING(transcoderaction)}}
                  resource://Preview.png
                  resource://PreviewFocused.png 
                

with the new trascoder that was recently implemented u dont need it :)

Hi Stoffez,

Really great work. Is it possible to isolate the commit that changed the TV Show default to All Shows instead of On Deck? I'd like to understand how that works. Personally I want it to be select Unwatched. I was going to fork or just clone the iBaa repo and add that change. Do you think that it is possible change the default for TV Shows to Unwatched?

Regards.

Answered my own question. This seems to be the commit: https://github.com/stoffez/PlexConnect/commit/cd647fd9532dc05b1ea265649caff56aba2885fe

I changed the to and now Unwatched is selected by default. This helps with the WAF (Wife Acceptance Factor).

Thank you very much.

With 1050 as Inset it looks really nice, only Movies without a Background Image are now not shown correctly. Also The Movie Poster Reflection has a black background :( Perhaps if we can find out how to solve these two issues the fan art background in Movie PrePlay would also look nice in TV Show PrePlay.

I tried alot of settings, my advice is… Keep 720 and remove the transcode button… I will remove it from my github cause its not needed any more… If u choose 720 the preplay will look like standard even when there are no fanart showing… Any other size messes it up totally when the fanart are missing or wrong size… The fanart must be 1080 or it will look like crap… Therefore go with 720!!


I am aware of the black shadow… Its an issue that is no solution to yet…

Fanart on the show preplay works the same way and also depends on fanart in the right size therfore i havent even tried to add it

yet :wink:

Ok, I've deleted the button. What is that Set Status Button for? Doesn't do anything I think.

With 720 even without Transcode Button the Movie Description, Poster etc is half the screen down with the buttons half outside the screen :/ Any idea why?

ok. Hope someone will find one :)

nice, perhaps I will try to add it :)

actually.. i have no idea.. even works on my kitchen tv... what u can do it to remove the set status aswell.. but it feels like its the 720 that gets u trouble..

strange removing the set status doesn't change it.. I will take a picture later on how it looks.. 

I gave it a shot and find that with the movie PrePlay screen, images and layout change around for each movie, doesn’t seem to offer a consistent design. Is this just me?
