Same file i've always used. Had it stored in my backups. I always just let it run an update on first install. The file I just showed the results for was downloaded from git just an hour ago, but I went ahead and did a save as directly from the code source and ran a chmod +x on it again. Same results...
osmc@osmc:~$ ls -la texturecache.py
-rwx--x--x 1 osmc osmc 308370 Mar 16 17:58 texturecache.py
osmc@osmc:~$ md5sum texturecache.py
a2d0e1c6585141e4241f30fed21f2c2c texturecache.py
edit: Ok, just did a wget and better results
osmc@osmc:~$ ls -la texturecache.py
-rwxr-xr-x 1 osmc osmc 300608 Mar 16 18:06 texturecache.py
osmc@osmc:~$ md5sum texturecache.py
3fccb179b5694cd806420261f6b7292e texturecache.py
edit2: file is now working fine locally, still can't run S,s,R,r from remote location. Fatal again

3 minutes to recache all art? Either you have a supercomputer or only 20 items in library.
On other comments, why would you want to force recache all items over and over again?
Ok seriously now.. try increasing the number of threads used?

I have a Cmd.exe script that updates my RPI's artwork caches. I would like it to only update the RPI's that is not currently in use.
What is a good way to do this? Can I use your tool only or do I need curl/json? I think checking ScreenSaver Active or System Idle would be a good solution.

No, texturecache.py doesn't need to be in userdata, it can be anywhere (ie. your home directory). I don't know if Python is installed as standard on FireTV, I assume it is but if not I've no idea how you install it - you could instead just run the texturecache.py script on another machine (ie. Windows desktop) and remotely access your FireTV as suggested by @PolygonMan.
If you have Python installed on your FireTV then all you need to do is download texturecache.py now, add the execute permission (chmod +x ./texturecache.py) and run it. You don't need a texturecache.cfg file for a default installation.
Texture Cache Maintenance Utility: Preload your texture cache for optimal UI performance. Remotely manage media libraries. Purge unused artwork to free up space. Find missing media. Configurable QA check to highlight metadata issues. Aid in diagnosis of library and cache related problems.
