DVD Covers not showing?

Ok, so I've installed Sage V7 and the BMT plugin. I've logged into and configured BMT via the web service. I was able to update the metadata and the DVD covers show when I browse the library in the web app but in the SageTV client I get the metadata for my DVD's but no cover art or fan art just the DVD icon. Is there another plugin I need to install to show the covers?

Well after more forum reading (You really have to hunt for some of this stuff) I installed and turned on Phoenix Fan Art for Sage TV 7. Now, on my server I have the fanart and dvd covers but on my client I don't have anything. Are there detailed instructions somewhere for setting this up? The only documentation I can find says its out of date.

I finally got to setup my HD300 and when connected to my sage server it shows the dvd covers and fan art just fine (like the GUI on the server itself) however my client on another PC doesn't show anything. Is there something special I have to do to the client to get it to show the covers?

Bump, still cant get my SageTV Clients to see covers. My extenders work fine and the gui interface on the server works fine. I've tried two different windows 7 machines with the client installed.

Have you installed the Phoenix Fan Art for Sage TV 7 plugin on the client? If not, you need to.

On the client, you'd need to set the Fanart Folder to be the folder where the fanart is stored on the server, and you'd need be be able to access that folder from the client.

Ie, if you all your fanart is stored in C:\Fanart, on the server, then on the client, you'd need to map that folder as a drive on the client, ie, "Z:\Fanart", and then from the client, you'd need to set the fanart folder to be "Z:\Fanart".

I don't use windows, and I don't have any clients, so hopefully the information that I'm providing is somewhat correct.

Thanks for the suggestion guys.

The solution was to edit the client's Phoenix Core Services plugin and modify the Fanart folder to point to my sageTV server's Fanart directory (via network path) specified in the sageTV server's Phoenix Core Services plugin.

All is working now!
