1. Pictures On The Zune (landscape)
--Firstly grap your picture (make sure its 240*320 - thats the usual zune dimensions)
--You then need to rotate it 270 degress
--Once the picture is rotated place it in the top left corner, so that the edges are meeting the end of the canvas. Now all that is left is to resize the canvas.
TAKE NOTE the dimesions are now 320*240
--It should now look like this
And on the Zune
-----------------------------------------
2. Categorising Videos
Firstly, your going to need a tag editing program I suggest TigoTago
Start the program and click File and locate your files.
It should look something like this:
Right click the file and then click "Advance Edit".
You will then need to change the the following Primary and Secondty ID's to:
Primary ID: db9830bd-3ab3-4fab-8a37-1a995f7ff74b
Secondary ID: ba7f258a-62f7-47a9-b21f-4651c42a000e (Note - this is the secondary ID for TV Shows only)
Movies = A9B87FC9-BD47-4BF0-AC4F-655B89F7D868
TV Shows = BA7F258A-62F7-47A9-B21F-4651C42A000E
Music Videos = E3E689E2-BA8C-4330-96DF-A0EEEFFA6876
Then click the general tab and change the following:
Title: Season/Show Name
Album Title: Episode number
Track Number: Episode number so they are ordered by number not name
Then continue doing the same to all the episodes
and thats it sync them and your done.

3.Removing Items From The Quicklist
..Launch the zune software.
..Click the device tab and locate the incorrectly added songs on the quicklist.

6.Guest syncing
Very simple, go to Settings>Device>Sync Options.
Click forget device
Next time the zune is connected "sync as a guest"
-----------------------------------------
7.Unlocking Zune
..Again a simple process. Open the Zune software and being converting a video or syncing a large video.
..As this is syncing hit Ctrl+Alt+Delete to launch the taks manager.
..Switch to the processes tab and "End" the Zune.exe process.
..Your zune is now unlocked and ready for use (either HDD hack or zAlternator).

Thanks. What I've done is took my other two tutorials and just combined them into this thread.
The zune background customizer doesnt work either, same as the custom background hack program. I still get the same error, good thing I've backed up my zuneshellresource.dll file and reload it. Maybe I should do the manual registry edit thingy, the thing is it's too risky. Any other tips how to change the background on the latest zune software update?
