Bug Posters and Banners not being shown
#1
Hi, lost here. Tried everything including totally reinstalling all Kodi software and DB on MySql

Environment:

* About 6 devices which have Kodi 16.1 installed and are configured with the advancedsettings.xml to connect to a MySql DB to retrieve and store all multimedia, additionally path substitutions is set up, including setting the path for the thumbs to a NAS. (Only the Thumbs path substitution has for each device his own Thumb sub directory, so no device uses another devices thumb data, as to prevent corrupted DB's).
* Thumb folder for each device is nicely filled with actors, posters etc.
* All data sources are located on one NAS drive
* When scraping for new content, I have set each source to only retrieve data from local directory.


Problem:

* For some reason, a lot of Movie posters and TV Show banners are not shown in the Kodi Remote App, they are blank.
* However if I just browse through Kodi on the devices screen, all Movies and TV Shows are displaying the posters/banners/backgrounds correctly.

Tried:

* I Reinstalled all devices and did a new DB installation and scrapped all Movies and TV Shows again from local source just to make sure their is no inconsistency between devices and that the DB is not corrupted.

I could really use some help in solving this problem. :-)

I have screenshots, but can't see where to upload them.


Thanks for any assistance.

Hi, I have the same problem.

I am on Raspberry Pi 3 and OSMC 2016.09-1.

I am using the Official Kodi Remote on an iPhone 6 Plus (iOS 10.0.2).

The remote does not display the posters for the movies or TV shows in my database and also does not show images for the actors. They are blank

When I select a movie I get a "spinning wheel" activity indicator and even if I wait a long time the artwork and actor images do not load.

All my fanart, posters etc work on the TV, just not on the remote.

Thanks.
