Preview in background?

Heya,

is there a way to put game screenshots (previews) into the background of the game list?

This is a scrappy template that I use that adds a half-fade effect screenshot in the background. Is this what you’re looking for?

Awesome, yes! I can’t use scrappy though, scraper would have to be used.

This is my default.ini (located in /mnt/sdcard/MUOS/info/catalogue), for example:

[viewport]
WIDTH = 290
HEIGHT = 375
COLUMN_MODE = 0
COLUMN_MODE_ALIGNMENT = 2

[image1]
FOLDER=preview
ALIGN = 5
MAX_WIDTH = 290
MAX_HEIGHT = 150
PAD_LEFT = 0
PAD_RIGHT = 16
PAD_TOP = 0
PAD_BOTTOM = 30

[image2]
FOLDER=box
ALIGN = 6
MAX_WIDTH = 290
MAX_HEIGHT = 170
PAD_LEFT = 0
PAD_RIGHT = 2
PAD_TOP = 0
PAD_BOTTOM = 188

This looks great. I acutally use your Epic Noir theme on my 35xxh. I would like to use this.

I’ve used scraper and there is an option for box art to appear as a screenshot of the game, but I don’t think it fills the background though.

i added the file on my post…
