I've been looking at the screenshots in some of the posts about Y2M and they look great, but they dont work for me. I downloaded the osiris grey black skin and extracted it to the skin folder in the Y2M folder - it doesn't show up in the skin drop-down box in the Yamj settings. All I get is a bog-standard cover (even though I have "blurauy" in the titles), and a synopsis with a flat black background. In fact if I pick any of the 4 skins other than the "default" nothing happens.What makes it worse is when actually viewing the video wall on the mede8er, the quality is terrible, plus there is a big [HD] stamp on the cover-art along with a British/American flag. I'm obviously doing something wrong - but does anybody know what?

I'm not sure it is necessary, but if you are having problems changing skins, you may want to try this...

Exit Y2M
Delete the "Jukebox" directory
Run "Delete Y2M Registry.bat"
Run Y2M which should now prompt you for settings, so choose the new skin among other settings

The about.jpg generated should now be using the new skin.

Most skins have a variety of options, so look over the config files for the skin you are using to see if there is anything you want to change (like turning off the country flags or removing the HD logo).

Got it!!! I deleted everything including the yamj directory and jukebox and started over again - except this time I didn't install yamj gui 5.0! I had obviously been following 2 sets of instructions - one for pre-Y2M and one for Y2M!!! I'm 99% there now, I just cant seem to get the genre folder artwork to work?
