Thumgen TV Series Templlate

[GregiBoy]

This post is for those that wish to generate thumbnails semi-automatically for display in their media library, usually on a media player.

I have promised to put this up for a while and finally here it is.

If you have a look at the JPG, it will show you what information is obtained, displayed and written to the thumbnail pretty well automatically.

Thumbgen can be obtained FREE at http://thumbgen.org/ and this template was done with Version 1.2.7.4

There are 2 zip files also attached.
The gallery zip must be unzipped to C:\Program Files (X86)\Thumbgen\Gallery. I have done this so that the image repository is central rather than remaining with each template.

The template zip template file must be unpacked to C:\Program Files (X86)\Thumbgen\Templates\_TV Series

Enjoy

Pehaps a mod may like to make this a sticky so it doesn't get lost.
