I have two CDs (AC/DC Live by AC/DC & Our Live Album is Better Than Your Live Album by Reel Big Fish) that are both in a cardboard/paper type case (example below).



Is there anyway to get Delicious Library to make the CDs look like that instead of this:



Thanks in advance.

If there's an Audio format you don't use...Cassette ? Album? You cold replace it's template graphic with an altered CD template so it doesn't give the spine and tabs effect.
Might be more effort than it's worth, though.

If you call them cassettes they will be squished and if you call them records they will be huge. Ultimately, there's not much you can do in the current version, but the next version has a lot more formats, so you should be able to figure something out then.

If you replace the graphic template/tif for "Cassette" or "album", (see the Blu-Ray/HD DVD hack thread), it shouldn't do a squash or stretch, no?

I was thinking of making an iPod template to make listing for movies I've converted to iPod format, setting it in the "laserdisc" aspect field. (an iPod listing would be good for DL2, btw ;D)

Honestly I have no idea. The formatting system is strange and even though I've used it for adding formats and such, I don't really understand it. There's a bunch of numbers, I have no idea what they mean. I guess the only thing to do is try it.

Just to let you know, I've implemented paper CD cases in Delicious Library 2, just for you.
