XBMC season-all.tbn poster/banner option #786

Open psouza4 opened 9 years ago

psouza4 commented 9 years ago

Originally reported on Google Code with ID 786

Currently the season-all.tbn file for TV shows defaults to a banner, although season-all.jpg
is a poster.

I understand that some skins require banners while others look better with posters.
 Would it be possible to get a setting under the XBMC tab that allows the user to choose
which to download?

For instance, using the Aeon Nox skin with the Showcase view displays a squished banner
for the "all seasons" item under a TV show.  It looks pretty awful.

FYI for a quick fix... just tell MCM to not make the season-all.tbn and have it deleted
and instead XBMC will default to the "folder.jpg" that is located in the TV show main
folder. This will give you the results desired... in MCM you can already change this
"folder.jpg" to either a poster or a banner so with this completed everyone goes home
a winner... I already do this manually I just delete all of the "season-all.tbn" files
but every time MCM re-scans the TV show it re-creates the "season-all.tbn" so I find
myself constantly deleting this file again....

Agreed. The option to disable any "all seasons" metadata would be welcome as well.

I am testing out XBMC and have disabled the option in there, so I would like to not
have any metadata for something I don't need :)
