[04:19:14] sammyjayuk: Hi all. Is there any reason why recording artwork—fanart, cover and, particularly, banner—isn’t available in the recordings buttonlist?
[04:19:36] sammyjayuk: I quite like how it looks: http://files.gandi.ws/gandi32984/image/record . . . wbanners.png
[04:20:49] sammyjayuk: but currrently I’m doing it using a custom mythpreviewgen bash script, and that’s really ugly

[15:52:00] stuartm: sammyjayuk: if the option isn't already there (I'll check later), then it's only because no-one thought to or had time to add it
[15:52:20] stuartm: fwiw I thought it was already possible, but if not it wouldn't take much effort to implement
[15:58:18] sammyjayuk: yeah, I’m looking at playbackbox.cpp and, bearing in mind that I know zero C++ so I might be misreading it, UpdateUIListItem has something to do with artwork in it
[16:00:27] sammyjayuk: I’m writing the theme on a Mac, but just installed mythbuntu in an VM because it looks like whatever reads/applies qtlook.txt is broken on OS X
[16:01:02] sammyjayuk: so maybe it’s a mac fe bug
[16:12:00] sammyjayuk: ok, so none of the three artwork types work inside the buttonlist, even on linux
[16:15:20] sammyjayuk: when you say “wouldn’t take much effort to implement”, does that mean that I should try to do it myself, or that it’s so little effort that it would take someone who knows all this stuff literally minutes to do, and that I should ask them very sweetly?
[16:18:09] sammyjayuk: because I’m looking at the code, and I can’t even see how the artwork for the currently highlighted recording gets loaded
[16:21:25] sammyjayuk: oh, the bit in playbackbox.cpp i mentioned just now is inside an “if ((GetFocusWidget() == m_recordingList) && is_sel)” block, so I expect that’s how the highlighted recording’s artwork gets loaded
[18:25:23] stuartm: sammyjayuk: if I get a moment, it something that I should be able to add pretty quickly – in theory tonight, but I don't want to make promises I may not be able to keep
[18:44:01] sammyjayuk: stuart, that’s brilliant, thank you!
[18:45:41] sammyjayuk: and I’m not too worried about when, exactly—I’ve got lots of work to be getting on with on that theme.
