Can someone tell me please what is the nfo format in order to achieve that ?
It's very hard to find some info on it because Nox is (I think) the only skin that deals with extrathumbs.

Is it runned by the skin or by artwork downloader ?

I already tried something like this in my nfo but it's not working :

<art>
<extrathumb1>path1</extrathumb1>
<extrathumb2>path2</extrathumb2>
<extrathumb3>path3</extrathumb3>
<extrathumb4>path4</extrathumb4>
</art>

I need to point it locally because gifs only work if they are on the same machine that runs Kodi and my media files are on a Nas samba share so nfo is the only solution I've got so far.

so far as i know you just can "change" them manualy inside kodi... they cant be scraped (yet?!)
but maybe i am wrong... doesnt check this topic a while now

Take a look at userdata (wiki) - the correct addon folder is found one folder 'up' from the location given at the start of that page.

things are going well and i've got it all setup. have all the correct add ons. one thing i can't seem to get though that i liked in the beta mad nox is i have a playlist that i want to display bluray/dvd cases for. this playlist should display the latest movies i have added to my library. now, the cases do show up but they are of random movies and nothing close to the latest. before there was a section for smart playlist where you told it how you wanted things to be displayed.

can anyone tell me how i can do this in the dev version? what i'm doing now:

setup the aeon nox main menu
select background - live background video playlist
case - dvd/br

but for some reason the cases that are displayed aren't from my playlist. as i said i know how i could fix this in the past with the smart playlist section how can it be done in dev?

thanks

Yes, the way playlists have worked has changed. Rather than create a playlist, then use the playlist manager to adjust how it displays, now playlists are displayed as defined in the playlist themselves. So if you want to display recent movies in a playlist, you'd edit the playlist to 'Order By' 'Date added'. Give it a limit as well, because the images in the cases are assigned randomly from the items in the playlist (so if there's no limit, the playlist will contain all movies in your library, and the backgrounds will be a random selection of these) - so if you just want the 10 most recent movies, set the limit to 10. And you should have what you're after.

(And reading back what I've just written about the limits/random choice - maybe it wouldn't be a bad idea to add a toggle for whether they're random or not!)

Thanks for your answer ! Anyway if anyone is interested in this, I made it work by adding extrathumb1,2,3 and 4 to artwork downloader, and then selecting them with "get illustration"..
The Gifs have to be on the same machine that runs Kodi and not on a smb share.


Anyway, I noticed another bug related to animated posters (gifs). They work in every view but they don't work for poster widgets on main menu. I didn't try dev branch but I'll assume it's the same. Anyone knows about it ?
