View Full Version : Problem with ListItem.Thumb and app thumbnails

I am using ListItem.Thumb as a texture for an image control, but only the YouTube logo is being displayed. Has anyone else encountered this?

RSS feed I'm using - rss://boxee.dN0t.dontexist.com/auto-tunethenews.rss


The image control:


<control type="image">
<visible>!Player.HasVideo</visible>
<posx>75</posx>
<posy>150</posy>
<width>565</width>
<height>380</height>
<texture>$INFO[Container(111).ListItem.Thumb]</texture>
</control>


This is my first app; don't know if pasting the entire list control would be relevant or not.

I believe I have isolated it to my feed, as I can swap in another (e.g. Hot For Words), and the thumbnails correctly appear.

I believe my feed is properly formatted - can anyone look at it?

Hey

Had a look at your feed and i get the first item in the list displaying a thumbnail correctly, though the others don't display anything. I don't see any you tube icons.

Thank you for taking a look at it SniperKing.

All the links work when you paste them into a browser - comparing the feed against the RSS spec that boxee published seems to validate.

Really not sure what is wrong here.

riegersn in #boxee provided able help for me on this issue, which was a problem with caching in the development of the application.

To resolve it, I deleted all files in the Thumbnails directory under the profile I was using. Using the Clean Old Thumbnails feature in Settings->General was insufficient.


sudo rm -rf .boxee/UserData/profiles/PROFILENAME/Thumbnails/*
