If you're still taking votes I really, really like info2.

[RedCoat999]

+1 info2

[tonysathre]

I like Info2 better.

Is it possible to put the cover art angled? As in the bottom right of this image?

Very possible and easy with v7 animation system. However that is a realtime 3d rendering and the extenders can't animate that so it would be rendered in 2d on the extenders. I won't be doing any 3d rendering to stay extender friendly. In the future I might add som "pc only" animations but right now the goal is keep it extender caompatible.

If the background (from BMT) are stored in /fanart/movies/[title]/backgrounds/*.JPG is that adequate? or do we have to move them into the movie folders themselves?

That is accurate for the first release I will be copying them and renaming them for you. In the future I will change how I do this but this is a quick way for me to get support in the first release.

Here is another option with the white theme and black theme used. I think I am liking it because it brings the info the forefront while not overpowering the fanart to much.

Thoughts?

Of course logos and such are still to be added

We will call this info #3

[emotionnotion]

Info 2 +1

[emotionnotion]

I prefer Info 3 [the blacker version] its more legible and looks much cooler to me against the fanart backdrops

Can't wait for this to come out now; I have switched from Media Center to SageTV knowing this was coming!

I agree. This one is by far my favorite so far.

Tough call, the black version blends in better but the white version does a better job of allowing the info to stand out (after all, isnt that the purpose of an info view)

Black or white is your choice should have made that clear based on your theme settings in mymovies.

Hate to be asking for more, But is there a way to pull the file dimensions/resolution over too? It just looks like it belows in that space below the synopsis. In a mixed collection of HD and SD sometimes its nice to see.

BTW info 3 rocks.
