So, something I've been thinking about. It involves quite a few add-ons. I just want some advice.
I have a movie folder that is set to be scraped with TMDB along with ratings from IMDB.
I use Genesis to download the items in my collections and watchlist from Trakt account to that folder.
I have watchdog add-on, so whenever a new media is available they are automatically scraped into Isengard.
I love having extra-artworks like cdart and clearart, I get these with MediaElch (gonna try-out Media Companion soon because MediaElch has issues), along with extra info that are saved in a .nfo file. However, I do find the .nfo files redundant. I mean I do use it sometimes, like for example when I create my own movie set (I create DC Universe Animated Original Movies Collection for all the animated dc movies).
The problem is whenever all this happens, fanarts and posters are scraped in as well. Some of them I don't like. They are scraped into Isengard before I use MediaElch. So, after I use those other software to get the artworks that I want, I find that I have to either go through each movie information individually to change the artworks, or use Texture Cache Maintenance Utility. However, for some reason, I don't know how to make a bulk change, so I might just delete the entire thumbnails folder and Textures13.db file.
Does anyone else have this problem?
What do you suggest?
Also, is there a shortcut key for volume amplification?
PS. My problem is not with the add-ons or other software.
