  1. Thumbnails from game library missing


    Hey there, Rebel Han Yolo! Sorry to see that this is still happening to you! Most users have found that clearing their cache anywhere from 3 times to 10 times resolves this for them.

    Is this a new hard drive that you are using on this console as well, or the old one from the other console?

    Regardless of this information, we were investigating this issue earlier this month. Because you are still having this issue, I have gone ahead and let the investigating teams know what is going on and will let you know once I have more information.

    The problem appears to be fixed now. No clearing of the cache needed I think. I noticed icons were all displaying on one of the XBox 360's in my house so I went to my primary XBox 360 and sure enough all game art icons are displaying for me again without
    me making any changes on the XBox 360. This proves to me the problem is with the XBox Live service itself. This issue with XBox Live needs to be investigated and fixed. The easiest fix I can think of is to make it so all of the images get downloaded to the
    XBox 360 so the image can always be loaded regardless of being connected to XBox Live. I don't think that should be hard at all to fix myself.

  3. As I stated above, we are currently investigating this and the teams looking into this have been updated on this situation. Thanks for letting us know that you seem to be resolved now, though!

    It might be easier to fix the symptom than investigating why this happens is my point. Apparently this has been a problem that pops up sporadically for years with the many updates to the XBox 360 dashboard. The easiest solution is to store the game art
    images on the XBox 360 and not require them to be downloaded every time the My Games portion of the XBox 360 interface is selected which is incredibly inefficient in my opinion. That seems like a big design flaw to me. Caching data like images from the internet
    is always a better option than getting the resources every time you need them. That's internet client programming 101.

    Well you know...it's Microsoft. And the Xbox dashboard hasn't had 'good programming' in mind ever since the NXE refresh. Can we get a fix already? And while we're at it, can you let the 'team' know that they haven't fixed removing pins on items that don't
    exist? Seriously. It's annoying. :|

  6. honestly i haven't noticed this problem until Microsoft said the Xbox One will be backwards compatible. but then it might have been anytime before that, i'm not real sure. but its kinda annoying and the default pictures are all over the apps i already had
    installed. Thumbnails from game library missing :(

    The problem with icons missing for games is back with the latest dashboard update. Can Microsoft please implement a better solution for displaying game art? It is very sloppy looking and makes the system appear to be broken. Please allow the XBox 360 console
    to cache images locally in case XBox Live is having problems rendering images.

    > Microsoft doing anything to improve customer experience. This is ridiculous. Absolutely ridiculous.

    Can we get our pins fixed too while we're at it? They literally stack on absolutely useless features and leave the features that actually need fixing, completely broken. PINS HAVE BEEN BROKEN SINCE THEY LAUNCHED. FIX THEM. FIX CACHING. IT'S NOT ROCKET SCIENCE.
    STOP TRYING TO JAM IN USELESS FEATURES THAT NO ONE WANTS.

    I also hope that the performance of loading game images and pins will be improved. And the different pin behaviour since the last update is also confusing.

  11. Call Microsoft and complain as they said they will not fix it until the volume of calls reaches a certain number. I have the same issue as everyone here. (800) 469-9269 Microsoft number call and complain users unite.

    Well I too am having a similar problem and it is really annoying. The fact that any users are seeing this in my opinion is unsatisfactory. We have paid for these games and the interface should not have a broken look and feel at any time in my opinion. Sure
    games still work, but the interface looks so awful it makes me not even want to play on the XBox 360 anymore. I think this problem mostly effects XBox users who have large game libraries like myself. Perhaps people testing this issue should test on accounts
    that have close to 400 arcade titles and over 100 Games on Demand installed on an Xbox 360 with an external HD as well as an internal 500GB HD. I am guessing the problem will show up during testing with a similar configuration.

    I think the easiest solution to this problem is to change how the images get displayed on the 360. Instead of having to download the images every time the XBox 360 connects to XBox Live how about caching the images to the 360 so the console can always display
    box art even without being connected to XBox Live. I think that would solve a lot of these box art issues and would save a lot of frustration on all ends.

    I'm also having this issue. First it started with some games showing the generic xbox live covert art with green swirl while other games' art loads up fine. Clearing the system cache may it somewhat worse as now instead of the generic cover art, I get
    the missing art icon on some games but not others. Also after clearing system cache, the missing cover art is on different games than before where as it used to have cover art. I don't think its related to delisted games because the games showing missing
    cover art are still being sold such as ducktales:remastered and castle crashers.
