Thumbgen 1.2.9.1, Mojo 1.12.01 (MS) on FW 2.07.17 Can't get moviesheets to display

I’ve been trying for about a week now, but nothing is properly dispayed on the WD.  Best I’ve come up with is box art but it only displayed when I had the FW 3.01.19 running.  My thumbgen is outputting these files (example by movie name) …

Hanna.IFO.tgmd

My movies are on a WHS server and network attach works fine.  I can play them all o.k.  The file structure is server\dvd storage\genre\movie name\VIDEO_TS and thumbgen is dropping all its files at the movie name level.

The file Hanna_sheet is what I want dsplayed because it has all the movie description, rating, cast, etc.  But, for the life of me I can’t get anything at all until I drop down into the VIDEO_TS directory and then all I see is the movie description, no backdrop or box art.

HELP !!

Well, first your moviesheet should be outputing as:

Hanna_sheet.jpg  not  Hanna_sheet.png.

Pngs will not display as moviesheets on the HUB.

Second, you need to make sure that you are MANUALLY changing the extension for your cover art to .jpg.

Hanna.png to Hanna.jpg (must be done manually)

Also metadata will not display for folders, this is why you should convert all your Video_TS to .iso files.

Thanks, Tinwarble, that makes sense.  Now I understand why people were suggesting converting to ISO files.

How do I contribute to your work?  Do you have a paypal account so I can send a donation directly to your email?  I really appreciate all the time you spend programming and answering our questions.

Thanks,

Mike
