I am having some problems getting icons to show on my xbox. I have the latest t3ch build/ I got a bunch of icons for my movies on my hard drive and changed the names to match the file name like so moviename.avi and moviename.jpg---> moviename.tbn They dont show up on my xbox. Im viewing all my dvds thre smb so i dont know if i need to do something different. I have also noticed that there is no query for finding the thumbs automatically. I appreciate all help.

Make an icon or find the icon in the movies folder, if its in jpeg format just rename it default.tbn and put it in the movies root folder.
See if that helps and if not let me know and we can go from there.

If the movie is on the PC im not so sure you can pull in the icons, at least i never could.
If you put the movie on the xbox HDD it will let you use the movie scraper to get an icon and all the movie info in one shot.

is there a way to place the data on the HD of my pc. On the last build that i had i could just do query and it would pull them all for me and save them somewhere. Is there a folder on the xbox that i can manually place everything. I know it would take awhile but im willing to do it.
Or maybe load my last build and not wipe the userdata file out like i normally do?

Try to scan your movies. Press the white button when you have your movie folder selected. Then go to set content and set it to IMDB and have it scan.

the scrapers will still find the info for movies music etc on pc...and when it comes up if you dont like the thumb it gives you browse to your pc wherever you keep your icons.... _________________

i understand what your saying i just dont know how to do it. I can find all the icons i have on the pc yet i dont know how to set it as the one i want it for on the xbox. Theres a bunch in that are saved in the userdata folder but they all have numerical names. if i sub one for the other it doesnt work anymore.
