When viewing photos, it is possible to view them as a photo album
container buildon='upnp:album'
createClass='object.item.imageItem.photo'
class='object.container.album.photoAlbum'
Why not impliment that for videos also?
container buildon='upnp:album'
createClass='object.item.videoItem.movie'
class='object.container.album.movieAlbum'
When viewing conent via webbrowse
instead of viewing a list of movies
one could view a list of coverart for the movies
like we see on just about every media website

This would be great! I am using Plex also, and although I prefer Twonky overall, I am so impressed with the view that the plex has on the media player side. I downloaded a little PLEX app on my sony google tv box and walla all my videos, with no setup from me, show up as a beautifully done list of minature video boxes with a short description and a colorful picture which depicts the movie that you are ready to choose. I like this so much that I am thinking of changing. Come on Twonky you guys are obviously great programmers, lets add this feature. When my friends are over and I bring up the view from Twonky i get no response, but when they see the plex view its like WOW HOW CAN I GET MINE SETUP TO DO THAT. So just so you know...I LOVE TWONKY and don't want to change...but I really like those colorful descriptive media lists also.Comment -

I hear you, people want the wow factor
But just to clarify, I am talking about from a web browser
For Ex:
http ://192.168.1.100:9000/webbrowse/O0$3
From a client device would be awesome,
but I dont see twonky making client software for consoles, and media streamers
In some ways it would defeat the purpose,
but in certain scenarios would be ideal
as an example on you box that allows for client installtion of software
like ios and android, which they do now -

I put a post up on how to do this here

I was able to change the list view
to the thumbnail view

After taking a look at adding the ability to display title on a mouseover

It would also be applicable if one were to use the photo album view for videos

It would be even a better choice to add year and genre in addtion to the title
If we are using IE 9 or Firefox 12 we can leverage even further
the ability to insert a line feed into the title= to display even more information
Note: this does not work for all browsers
We can use this " " or "\n" to add line breaks
For Ex:
I addes this
title="' + data.title + '" ' + "Year: " + data.year + '\n' + "Genre: " + data.genre + '"
To achieve the following example
