### ⚙️ How to configure this add-on? 

- Remember, you do not need to configure anything if you're happy with the default set of images.



<details>
  <summary><i>Click here to reveal.</i></summary>
	
- To configure your theme to use the custom images, you'll need to input a URL pointing to an image in variables starting with '--url' and an overlay color in variables starting with '--color'.
	
- The ideal Jellyfin cover sizes are `960px x 540px`, and the colors can be in rgb format i.e. `rbg(128, 128, 128)`.
  
- Below are all the configurable variables, but you should remove the entries you do not intend to modify:
 
```

:root{

    <!-- overlay colors; change according to your image. -->

    --colorOverlayMoviesCover: rgb();
    --colorOverlayTvshowsCover: rgb();
    --colorOverlayLivetvCover: rgb();
    --colorOverlayPlaylistsCover: rgb();
    --colorOverlayBoxsetsCover: rgb();
    --colorOverlayMusicCover: rgb();
    --colorOverlayHomevideosCover: rgb();
    --colorOverlayBooksCover: rgb();
    --colorOverlayFoldersCover: rgb();

    <!-- cover images; input the url pointing to an image. -->

    --urlMoviesCover: url();
    --urlTvshowsCover: url();
    --urlLivetvCover: url();
    --urlBoxsetsCover: url();
    --urlMusicCover: url();
    --urlHomevideosCover: url();
    --urlBooksCover: url();
    --urlFoldersCover: url();

}
```

### 🆗 Read this example:
Suppose you want to modify the Live TV cover art. You'll have to modify the variables named `--colorOverlayLivetvCover` and `--urlLivetvCover`, so that your final configuration will look something like this:

```
@import url("https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/lscambo13/ElegantFin@main/Theme/assets/add-ons/custom-media-covers-latest-min.css");

:root{
    --colorOverlayLivetvCover: rgb(39, 68, 185);
    --urlLivetvCover: url(https://artworks.thetvdb.com/banners/fanart/original/71663-33.jpg);
}

```
