I am having issues with XBMC updating the new extra thumbs that I'm changing to new pictures.
XBMC had no problem finding my extra thumbs, I use Aeon and it shows 4 extra thumbs at once on my view for movies. Using media ember it had in some cases used the same image twice or used the same fanart as the main background one.
This bothered me so I went ahead and found different pictures for the ones I wanted to change and replaced them. Lo and behold xbmc does not want to update these no matter what I do.
I have done the following attempts at fixing (and prob others I forgot):
1.Remove the source folder of my movies, clean library, and then reload my movie folder.
2. Going to "refresh" in each of those movies' info area.
3. Choosing update library.
4. Rescanning the source.
5. Going into my userdata folder and deleting my video.db file in the database area, deleting the videos folder in thumbnails.
I found deleting the thumbnails did remove the pictures I did not want but also a bunch of other random stuff so I made sure to go through each folder 1,2,3...a,b,c..etc and deleted the few thumbnails that annoyed me.
Which brings me to my current situation, those thumbnails are no longer showing BUT now xbmc will not load in my new ones. Before it had no problem adding in new ones to the movies that did not have all 4 thumbs.
Help me please this is making me crazy, and sadly making me drop xbmc altogether soon and going back to Boxee. Only problem is Boxee glitches all the time and is not as customizable
