Hi, great program, in the middle of configuring everything and something’s been bothering me. When I add music to windows media center and the location is not the ‘my music’ folder the album art will not show up in the moving background when playing a song. It shows up when browsing the media itself but when playing a song, the moving cover art behind just displays one album cover (the one i got with the windows install called: mr scruff – ninja tuna) and blanks. As soon as i add an album to the ‘my music’ folder, this one shows up as well. I hope you can tell me how i can get media center to use the album art from other locations too. (for the moving backgroun d that is)

Thank you!

Can editing this file also disable the shifting of the album info from side to side when music is playing?

When hearing music I prefer to have no movements on the screen, so I have the waterfall turned off, but still there is this annoying thing where the album art and info every minute or so change position from one side to the other.

Does anyone know how to turn this off? I suppose editing the above file could do this trick?

Thanks for any hints.

Never mind. I googled how to take ownership manually ( http://tinyurl.com/c59xqg ) and after following those instructions the patch worked just fine.

I have the same problem a few other here have mentioned with the patch refusing to overwrite the ehress.dll file even after I’ve right-clicked on it in Windows Explorer and chosen “Take Ownership”. Chosing this opens a cmd window for a second before it closes (too fast for me to see what it says – is this what’s supposed to happen?

I got rid of it by searching for all jpg files in the c: drive, and sure enough it turned up. Delete the Ninja Tuna pic files and you should have no more Ninja Tuna.

I have an odd problem. I have one album cover in the background and I have no clue where it came from. I actually see it in the pic above too (“Mr. Scruff Ninja Tuna”). Any clue where this could be located so I can delete it or how I can get rid of it?
