Well, it sounds somewhat like this issue https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=116389 . In any case, the problem is outside the scope of this thread, sorry - a mod should probably split it into its own thread.

Sometimes Artwork is only available many hours or days after something gets released. But, by then it is in my library with a default Kodi picture, and this doesn't get auto updated once artwork is available. I can manually refresh individual entries at a later date - but would love an option where it would auto-refresh Artwork stuff if there is artwork at a later date when first there was none. So for me I wouldn't want to refresh my entire library's artwork all the time - but, for stuff where there is No artwork in the library, that I would like to be auto updated.
1. periodically re-scrape local art if it changed (added/removed/changed)
2. periodically re-scrape art from remote if it changed
Suggestions?
Also, refreshing an entry manually refreshes the entire item - so it also gets a new timestamp and shows up at the top of the Added Recently list again. It would be perfect if the artwork would auto-update when it's missing, without refreshing the timestamp in the library of the entry.
I am using Kodi 19 - so can't use Artwork Beef separately.

I migrated Kodi from an Fire TV to Windows by creating a backup on the fire tv and restoring it on windows. On Windows I only had to enable the addons. This worked for almost everything, but Artwork Beef is behaving strange. When I try to change to folder for movie set artwork kodi completely crashes. I don't know why because the path that is set is valid, it's a samba share and the videos on that share are accessible without a problem. I thought the easiest way would be to just uninstall Artwork Beef and reinstall it. When I uninstalled it kodi asked me if I want to remove the settings too, I said yes. I installed AB again but the settings weren't deleted. I also tried to revert all settings to default which worked for all settings except the path to the movie set artwork folder. How can I fix this? I tried to edit the addons settings.xml, but it looks like the path isn't stored there.

(2021-05-21, 15:26)Kincaid Wrote: I installed AB again but the settings weren't deleted.If you are on Windows, then you can delete the settings files for Artwork Beef. Exit Kodi and go to...
C:\Users\<YourUserName>\AppData\Roaming\Kodi\userdata\addon_data\script.artwork.beef and delete all the files in the folder. Once you restart Kodi, Artwork Beef will recreate the missing files, but all your settings will be back to default.
Alternatively you can open the settings.xml file and delete the path that is there...
Probably best if you use the first option, as there may be other issues due to the transfer.

@Karellen I uninstalled AB, deleted the folder in userdata/addon_data and installed it again. Now the settings were completely reset and I was able to set the folder to the movie set artworks. I ran AB but it's at "Adding estended artwork - 0%" for a couple of minutes now. Not sure if it's actually doing something. Kodi is resposive and I can stop the process without a problem. Task manager says kodi is pretty much idle, only 0.1% CPU usage. I'll let it run for some time and see if it changes, but I doubt it will.
Edit: Had a look in the log file and it looked like AB is processing some media that are not actually movies or tv shows. After it was finished with that media it started to process the movie sets and it successfully replaced the cover arts with the ones from my movie sets folder. Issue is solved. Thanks.

Music extrafanart question on Leia
I have the following music folder structure: music\artist\extrafanart and I want artwork beef to add extrafanarts to my database. extrafanart files are named 0.1.2 etc.
I also have artist slideshow installed
I have ran artworkbeef several times but extrafanart doesn't show up in Tajo, movies and tvshows work fine.
Thanks in advance

The extrafanart folder isn't supported for the music library. The preferred placement is next to the single 'fanart' image for all media.

Use Artwork Dump instead.
