I am using the Community WS 16X9 skin with the skin plugins.
I was wondering if there is a way to display an image of each movie in the Videos.
Let me rephrase that. When I go into Videos and select a folder for a movie, I was wondering if there is a way to show an image of the movie from a small jpg file or something. I realize I will have to create all the images, but that is ok.

The default GBPVR videos plugin supports Icon view mode and Filmstrip view mode. (blue button on remote or mode on left menus).

The images just need to match the names of the video files.

a different button for the pseudo-popup in the recordings screen/tv guide is above that for me though.

Did you mean the "video archives" plug in?

I believe you can use
folder.jpg
default.jpg
or
WhatEverFileName.mpg.jpg

I guess I'm misunderstanding something.
I am very pleased with the 16X9 Community skin. I would prefer to not go back with out it, but is there a way to show images of videos with this?
Even if I had to edit xml files, I would be willing to give it a shot.
I just think it would be dang cool to flip through the archives and see the image of the movie in the mean time....

In the Video Library screen, if you press the mode button (or blue button on some remotes), you can change from list, thumbnail, and filmstrip view modes. The latter two modes will show images as well as the name.

Say, for example you have a file called CSI.mpg in your folder. If you add CSI.mpg.jpg, that image will be displayed in those view modes.

I apologize. Now that I think of it, I do remember something about this. I think I may have even tried this about 6 months ago.
Thanks.
