| | Posted: | | | | Good evening, Sirs,
I just downloaded and restored the latest Headshot Database, but the CreditPhotos folder is still empty.
Where are the Headshots stored? And what is a CreditPhoto?

| | Posted: | | | | Sorry, for the first question I can't help, because I also was searching som time and didn't find them.
I think the credit photos folder is for headshots of a specific movie. (similar to the scene photos) |

I think the credit photos folder is for headshots of a specific movie. (similar to the scene photos) Headshots, as in the ones used in the Headshots Master DB are stored in the database. You cannot access them separately. If you read the link i posted it explains the CreditPhoto folder (Post by MadMartian). This was added in 3.5.1 and this same question has been asked many times. If you put the image in the root of that folder it will show for that actor as the default picture (same as the image stored in the DB). you can override it for specific profiles by including a subfolder in that directory that is named the profiles identifier (UPC or DiscID) -Agrare |

| | Posted: | | | | It's not necessarily a benefit more of a personal preference. Pre 3.5.1 you could only store the photo's in the database. There is no way to extract images from the database so both methods really need to be supported going forward for backwards compatability. The CreditPhoto folder does let you have profile specific pictures though so that could be seen as an advantage.
