Homebrew Paths for custom game covers in Wiiflow

[Mushrat]

So I'm having a little bit different of an issue on covers, as mine is with movie titles. I've tried renaming the .png files exactly the same (including extensions) as the video files, and if that's right, I'm guessing my issue is movie location and dvd cover location. Any idears? I'm sure it's a simple fix, like location. The wii shows game coverart with no issue.

My mplayerce configuration file is as follows:


[PLUGIN]
arguments={device}:/{path}/{name}
bannersound=THX.oggconsole
coverid=covercolor=ffffff
coverfolder=mplayerce
displayname=MPlayerCE
dolfile=mplayerce-svn-r673.dol
filetypes=.avi|.mp4|.mkv

Well, the good news is it looked like it worked for a second or two... Then Wiiflow crashed and reloaded... Now a new problem lo. My favoriteS! Any clue why? Maybe too many movies or too many covers? I read online that the files are to be 1061 x 680 . Maybe that was wrong and is causing the crash?

Looks like I'm back to re-sizing then just incase. I'll let you know if that works... Maye I'm just lucky enough to have a jacked up unit haha. Thanks m8

Okay, problem seemingly solved. Apparently I still have some .jpg files in there. As a note for anyone that cares, jpg's cause wiiflow to crash lol. Thanks for the help!!!
