And then you fall exactly in the case I already said it was working: shs fetching artworks from internet!

What does not work for all artists is directly using artworks already put by me in the artist folder

Even on brand new kodi and skin install. I let kodi create the library: shs will never find artworks localy stored for some artists but find them for others
Folder structure is exactly the same for all artists in my music folder...

Here is an exemple:
Image

You can see that folder structure and file naming is exactly the same for both artist but:
-shs will always find gorillaz artworks localy stored
-shs will NEVER find flo rida artworks localy stored the same way

try to rename your simplecache.db in addon folder
c:\Users\#####\AppData\Roaming\Kodi\userdata\addon_data\script.module.simplecache\simplecache.db
in
c:\Users\#####\AppData\Roaming\Kodi\userdata\addon_data\script.module.simplecache\0simplecache.db
start kodi and shs will create new simplecache.db
open and see with sqlitebrowser your database for data
Code:
music_artwork.artist.flo rida
I open mine and all info are local
day for expires is "1498840103" hex 30.6.2017. 18:28:23 afther this time will change automatic (30 days)
roll back your file.....no need to rescan all info Smile

Will do this as soon as possible and report back right after


RE: skin helper service - Gracus - 2017-05-31

@Angelinas : just to be sure, which music scraper do you use?


RE: skin helper service - Angelinas - 2017-05-31

I use theAudiodb Artist scraper
music scraper is irrelevant in this case...shs use own I think music brainz as first.This is setings for metadata and artwork module.

Gorillaz and G n' R works 100% with SHS

@ marcelveldt

I requested Trakt.tv Support a few month ago, I know your a busy Guy, but would be great if we get some basic Trakt support in the future.

Thanks

As expected... does not work!

First try: shs does not use local artworks

Image

Second try: shs still does not use local artworks

Image

Both simplecach.db files show they use artworks from internet

RE: skin helper service - manfeed - 2017-05-31

It seems that...

Window(Home).Property(SkinHelper.ListItem.SongCount)

...doesn't work in artists level anymore.

Thanks!

@ Gracus and Angelinas

It is working fine for me. Kodi Leia has had some updates to the music section. Could it be a Krypton vs Leia Issue or a tagging issue with the mp3's?

I'm on kodi leia but as far as I remember, it was already not working when I was on kodi krypton

I only have flac files tagged with musicbrainz picard

Almost sure that this one does not come from SHS neither:

Same problem for me since I have deleted my simplecache.db to create a new one.


RE: skin helper service - RockDawg - 2017-06-07

I know the RottenTomatoes portion has been broken (any time line on it's fix?) but is MetaCritic also broken? I run Titan skin and I've noticed MetaCritic ratings no longer show even though I have it enabled in the skin.
