A nice soul has converted rodfeli’s MoreAdorned Tvixie template for use with Movie Sheet Generator.
I have tweaked the template further and I am pretty happy with the results
Changes compared to the original
Removed effects from cover and added static cover backgroup
Changed fonts
Added support for media flags – only two since it looks nicer
Download the updated template

I’ve finally found the time time make a [...]

Note: This feature has now been incorporated into WDLXTV 0.5.8. Yay.
