Fanart For TV Mini-Series?

[voorhees]

I have been playing around with this for a while now and have read through a lot of posts, and I figure I am missing something pretty easy, but I can not get fanart for a TV mini-series that I have ripped from DVD to work. I have ripped the episodes to the below structure for all 14 episodes.

...\DVD Movies\I, Claudius\01 - A Touch Of Murder\VIDEO_TS
.
.
...\DVD Movies\I, Claudius\The Epic That Never Was\VIDEO_TS

I have tried many, many different combinations of trying to get a single fanart background for all 14 episodes to work to no avail. Below are the ones I have tried so far...

...\MediaBackgrounds\Movies\I, Claudius\Backgrounds\01 - A Touch Of Murder.jpg

I only tried the ones with "I, Claudius - Disc 1" in the path or title since the episodes were renamed in SageTV when the DVD Profiler metadata was read in since I made each episode a disc in the DVD Profiler listing. I know it does not make sense that it should work, but I just started trying anything. I am just trying to get a single image to be the fanart background for all episodes, but can not crack the code to get it to work. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I would try....

...\MediaBackgrounds\Movies\I, Claudius - Disc 1\Backgrounds\

or

...\MediaBackgrounds\Movies\01 - A Touch Of Murder\Backgrounds\

If you are brave enough, you can check the log files (sagetv_0.txt or mailcheck.log) and and search for "claudius". The fanart apis log out the failed lookup attempts, and it should show the complete path that it is trying to use for fanart background, etc.

stuckless,

Thank you very much for your help. I used the first example and it worked great. I was hoping for a solution so I would not have to create a folder for each episode in the folder, but all that really matters is it is now working. Thanks again.
