And to be honest I don't quiet get it. Are you saying that if xbmc/AD automaticly downloads the artwork for a new movie there would be to much traffic, but if I manually download it there wouldn't? As I see it the only reason why more traffic would be generated is that more people would use artwork on more movies. But it is kinda sad to develop such a nice extension and community around it and then try to deter people from fully using it for traffic reasons.
let me give you my bank account number if you think it doesn't matter at all so you can donate the server costs
if you think you can do it better don't let me stop you!
some people run their library update 10 times a day. do i need to explain it some more ..............
I know this has been mentioned before, but just a suggestion to reduce server load, I would be perfect happy with a 24 hour clock allowing us to automate artwork downloader to run once every 24 hours, if you want to run it more you would have to do it manually. I just find everything in xbmc can be automated and my family loves the hands off approach to scrapping xbmc brings its what makes xbmc the best. It automatically scrapes artwork without manual upkeep and intervention whenever you add a title, but since last year this program needs to be run every time manually whenever someone in the family adds something. Just a suggestion about the 24 hour interval option, it would be far less taxing, and still allow us to automate it and run it. I would for instance have it set to run once in the morning.
