Hi,
My media PC's motherboard died at Christmas and I have only just got round to rebuilding the machine. I've had to mess about with those old fashioned CD thingies for months!
Anyway, I have the PC up and running now with the latest versions and patches of WinXP, Media Centre, Girder and NetRemote. All this works ok apart from some of the cover art is missing.
On investigation, it is the images that are jpgs that are missing. Any that are bmp bitmaps are fine. If I convert a jpg to a bmp (using paint), I can then associate it and it displays fine. When I try to "Add from file" an image, the "select image window" has a preview area which shows the bmps fine, but shows nothing/black for jpgs.
Other than converting the format of hundreds of images
, is there anything else I can do?
Cheers
Chris
