@giftie

Do you have a new test version to fix the missing.txt file?

Thanks Smile

Just use the exit button within cdART.
If you exit through the "update xbmc´s thumbnails & fanart"-option, missing.txt won´t be saved.


I´m sure giftie is tired of repeating himself so I will do it for him Tongue

This will keep you music path clean of the fanarts, extrafanarts, clearlogos, artist thumbs and allow most skins(that use these files) to have proper access.

Album paths are fairly easy to figure out, Artist paths not so much... Smile

cdart.png and folder.jpg(album cover) should always end up in the right place.

I was actually waiting for a debug.log from someone(not you) that was having a problem starting the script after triggering an 'Update Thumbnails and Fanarts' so I can catch that bug before the next test release.

I got bored and started adding a big feature. Edit by Artist and Edit by Album. These functions will allow the user to edit the MBIDs for artists and Albums. Right now I have the automatic functions working and hope to have the manual MBID entry working soon. Though I might toss up a test version tonight, once i get the Progress Dialogs working again.

Ok so I will wait to have a missing.txt Smile

Thanks Smile

Skins that support cdARTs usually have a generic cdart in their /media folder, though most have the artwork stored in Textures.xbt. Also the following threat -> http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=53242 might have a generic cdART image. It is 44 pages long, though it also is the first cdART thread as well...

Hi giftie, I assume you're referring to myself. Appologies for not posting it, had some problems with my htpc and haven't had time to sort them out.
I'll post the log as soon as I am able to.




RE: [RELEASE] cdART Manager Script - filthycatbox - 2012-07-03

Here's the log giftie, hope it helps.
Had to upload rather than paste due to size.

This has nothing in regards of the script in it. Though I would suggest that you do a clean library, as there are some music folders that XBMC can not find.




RE: [RELEASE] cdART Manager Script - filthycatbox - 2012-07-04

Ok, thanks. I looked through it and I think your last updates seemed to have ironed out any problems, as I couldn't see any errors that related to cdart manager. I did clean the library already, so I'll try removing the source and binning the database.


RE: [RELEASE] cdART Manager Script - rflores2323 - 2012-07-06

hey giftie. I have run this addon and it works prefectly. Great job.

I have a slight problem however, user error on my part. I put my path for "Path to music library" to my main music folder and now the addon has created tons of additional folders in my music folder for artists. I am going to go in an manually delete the folder and then run the script again, unless someone else knows a better idea.

So I want to make sure how to set this up correctly. I was thinking of making a folder on my desktop as music-fanart and then pointing the script to that folder. how does xbmc read this folder to get the additional art to show up?

You need to set the exact same path in your skin setup.

Shh.. sleeping.. Smile

I did a code reshuffle and it requires me to test all features(and fix errors, then test again.)

Patience... Smile
