Post by XC-3730C »

Does anyone know what utility will let me change the icon for a default.xbe?

Thanks!

NOTTHESAME,

ok, I have a wide icon for xraine, and even though it is named to default.tbn, the regular square icon still shows up when I have View:Wide.

Any ideas? Seems as if the square icon is embedded into the default.xbe

Also, where can I get more wide icons for emulators?

It's cached by XBMC. Delete Q:/UserData/thumbnails and reboot. It will recache the new icons.

Instead of removing your entire set of thumbnails, you can use this Thumbnail plugin.
