Video box art and preview

[Evilforces]

Hi all!!

I'm using the latest version of gameex, and i have a question about videos box art.

I have a folder \GameEx\MEDIA\VIDEOS when i have all the box art of my videos (donwloade automatically by gameex), but when i inside gameex and enter to the videos path, i can only see the preview of the video, but not the box art...

It's possible to see both preview and box art? How can i see the box arts of my videos inside gameex? Where is the option to active the box art view (if there is anyone)?.

Thanks in advance, and excuse my bad english.

Try putting you box art in a seprate folder... Gameex has a feature to use video or snap if there is no video... Perhaps this is the case.

In the emu settings I believe there is an option to specify a box art path :0

There is indeed. Also, make sure you remember that the name has to be darn close (if not exactly) to the ROM name. If you have more questions, don't be afraid to ask.

First of all, thanks for your replies!!!

I'm looking for an option to put an specific folder for the box art, and i can't find it. In other hand, the boxart is of the videos in my hard disk, not the roms of games. I have some divx videos and gameex download automatically the box art (and put the same name of my video's names). When i enter to my videos inside gameex, i see a small preview of the film. My question is if it's possible to see the box art of that film (that is in the videos folder in my gameex folder) at the same time of the preview, or if i can see the box art entering in another level menu inside the gameex videos menu.

Excuse my english, i expect you understand my question.....

Thanks.

Just been working on this.

Previewing at the same time will be in the next release with a V3 theme. If you select the video, you should get a video info page, assuming you have the show game information setting turned on. There you can view the box art. In the next release yourll be able to view it full screen like other artwork.

Solved the problem adding the word BOXART_ before the name of the videos.

But i have another question abut BOXART. If i have a spanish videos with spanish title, where Gameex download the boxart?

It's possible to select the web page to download from the box art or select the languaje?

GameEx uses Amazon to get boxart from as I recall. Tom would have to answer about how it's done and if it's possible to use an alternate language.
