Imdb Help?
« on: July 13, 2003, 04:48:00 PM »

I see that XBMP has IMDB support in  the config file, however, I don't see where this integrates in to the program itself.  I have searched and read and can not find any info on how this works or how to launch it.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

I honestly did not see it in the manual.  When you say choose a movie from the list do you  mean choose a movie that's on my network share?  Or do I need to copy them to the xbox hard drive?  Also, the path points to a IMDB directory on the xbox, but there is nothing in that folder, should there be?  Thanks.

When I hit the white button I get three icons that pop up at the bottom, a TV, a speaker, and something else( I can't remember and I am at work).  I've been through each of those icons but there is nothing listed for IMDB.  My network is configured properly as I can get shoutcast files to stream from the internet.

Ok, I got it to pull the info from IMDB.  Very cool.  Now, how do I get it to display the art for the file?  I pressed Generate Thumbs but nothing happens.  I really appreciate the help.

Interestingly some of the thumbs I've pulled this way are displayed upside down while others are fine.  Anybody else have this issue?
