custom ratings images

[brad_w 3]

hey all,

 

I remember ages ago with the old community tracker there was an article on how to setup custom images for ratings.. i went on a hunt in this new forum and haven't been able to find a thing.

 

is anyone able to tell me how exactly i set them up? i previously had them working no problems on my old system, and because it's pretty much a setup once and leave it be thing.. i've completely forgotten where abouts it goes, and didn't back up my IBN folder.. ahhhh! as far as i can remember they go in there, but just not sure the folder structure/naming conventions needed.  i have the images ready to go.

 

any help appreciated!

 

Cheers.

You have to put them in your theme's mediainfo folder

 

For example Subdued's would be C:\ProgramData\MediaBrowser-Classic\MediaInfo\Subdued

 

If doing UK for example you need to name them as follows... 

 

rated_gb_12.png  or rated_gb_pg.png

They actually go in the ImagesByName folder on the server.  The structure is the same as with MB2 so the old doc on the CT still applies (Christa, can we see about getting that moved over here?).

Yes. The article is already in place, I just need to add additional supported image categories / types to it after testing their support in the various clients.

 

edit - nevermind. too early in the morning.

Why is Subdued looking for these directly?  The core handles it...

sorry guys, a little more to add to this.. are TV series ratings treated differently? or use a different naming convention for their rating image? it looks as though none of the images are being applied to any of the tv shows, but work fine for all the movies. I notice they're called "TV PG", "TV MA", etc though. but just not sure what i need to name my files. tried a few different ways, "rated_tv_pg.png" or "rated_tvpg.png" etc. neither look like they work.

 

Thanks for any help

Hi, can you please explain the exact location to put ratings images in media browser 3. I have folders named 12,12A,15,18,PG,R18,U. Inside each folder is the image named as folder.png.

Thank you.

From our KB: ImagesByName Folder

 

See the section on the MediaInfo folder.
