Dummies guide to Media Browser

[fozzybear]

I'm struggling with it.

I've followed the instruction on this page here and am fine until trying to install the MediaInfo plugin. It say's I need the version due out at the end of this month! (Orion).

Also, the following makes little sense to me.

On the display tab add each of your media directories. At this point create a directory in C:\MEDIA\metadata for each directory listed in Media Directories. Place a folder.png and backdrop.jpg in each, which will represent the icon and background for each folder, (the folder.png must be selected in Media Browser Configuration Wizard for each folder - the backdrop will link automatically).

ie: C:\MEDIA\metadata\Movies\folder.png
C:\MEDIA\metadata\Movies\backdrop.jpg

The icons I recommend are Xzeners EHS Icons (the 3rd set of icons on the link below)

The backdrops I used are customised from NickW's - see this link

And finally - the motherload of icons and backdrops: (check out Joey's Wall Style Backdrops!)

I've followed EXACTLY the same file and folder settings that the page suggested. I thought I couldn't go wrong that way. i was wrong!

Has anyone got a basic step by step guide to setting this up I just need a decent looking interface for blu ray movies.

Cheers.

I've been having a meddle with the default theme and am just about getting used to putting what where!

Everything is basic looking atm.

Any ideas what my next step would be to get a few more things on there? I don't want it too cluttered though!

The backgrounds aren't the actual movie playing. I did some screen grabs from my blu ray's so the backdrops automatically rotate every few seconds.
