As some of you may or may have not noticed I am developing a rainmeter skin, I am currently testing with MC 16.
I retrieve album art for the skin from user\appdata\roaming\jriver\media center 15\temp\thumbnails in my MC15 version.
In MC16 I can not find where the temp thumbnails are saved any ideas? I did a search of my system drive based on the info
I got from http://localhost:52198/MCWS/v1/Playback/Info?Zone=-1
I want the skin to be MC16 ready when 16 goes public.

ok so I found a temp file and it appears that temp duties have been passed off to the web browser
can you PLEASE revert back to using the MC temp folder if not you will kill my album art in
rainmeter since it doesn't know where to look for the file due to a browser using cryptic names.

Sorry if I'm being dense, but could you explain how your skin is calling out a thumbnail?

Are you using the automation SDK, or a Track Info template, or what?

Thanks.

My skin is using a Web Parser to read various xml files served by the MCWS interface.
I use perl regular expressions to only retrieve the data I need which is used my meters that
can display images or string data.
If interested download Rainmeter 2.0 and my skin and have a look. It's not complete but you can get an idea of how it works.
Rainmeter is a pretty powerful tool.
