Wishes for the various Tools that create SHOW Icons

No hurry .. it's "Carlito's Way"

Maybe a silly question but where/when are these show icons...er...shown?

The SearchWiz plugin also uses these images found in the media/art directory.

Hi
Sorry I haven't gotten back to you. Been pretty busy at work lately and of course it's summer so i haven't really been programming much. (Well...other then work...)
I did take a look at the sites and i'm pretty sure i could get something going for you. Just not sure when it'll be.
I'll keep you posted on any progress.

Hi Carlito, saw you posting and remembered an old request... any luck with that?

Hey,
Sorry no time so far to do this. I've been pretty busy this summer and recently (yesterday) just got back from holiday.
Still keeping your request in mind though, but again not sure when it'll be.
Sorry for the wait, but summer is just too nice out

I still think a unified "Program Image Tool" database or downlaod from Net and use for all recorded shows DVD's as per my first post in this thread would be great!

Any word on this? A simplified way to download images for TV Listings, the Recording folder screen, etc. would be great.

Still keen for this too...

Not sure if this will fit your needs:

If everyone wants to make this a user contributed project, I can host the images/database. We should probably loosely limit the "users" who could upload though. We don't want someone uploading a screen grab of a commercial from their recording for example.

It's a nice idea :-) .... but TBH the various tools don't do a bad job, they find what's there ... and leveraging ALL the various HTPC programs that might upload to those databases is likely to yield a far greater number of images for subsequent downloading ....

This was more an issue of some consistency amongst the various Plugin providers (VA / Xrecord etc....) as to WHERE the images go, whether they can be downloaded on an EPG basis (everthing in the db3) or on a per recorded show basis, where they search for them (TVGuide, IMDB or even custom locations?), icon sizes and formats .... etc.
