Another thing - I did ALL FANART for the homescreen...and I notice it's kind of chaotic. It shows some tvs/movie fanart...then just shows nothing for a solid 30seconds-1 minute (plain grid background). Is this intentional and is there any way to implement a homescreen fan-art option to make the images shuffle faster Right now if I do animated backgrounds...it will recycle the same background over and over for 1 minute or so. Gladiator zoomed out 3 different ways, before switching if at all to another movie/tv show fanart

Seems like fanart grabber isn't picking up the change of fanart source, try rebooting. It's supposed to show random fanart image every 30 seconds. The refresh time is set in startup.xml

Also is Library Data Provider necessary, if so when? This is with LDP enabled btw ^^^. Do I need to enable Artwork Downloader and Artist slideshow to get fanart homescreen to work right? Kinda confuzzled ! Other than that, this theme is EPIC.

LDP is not a requirement. The other add-ons don't do anything for the homescreen fanart.

My Thumbnails are on MySQL and with Refocus and Kodi 14.2 - never had any issues getting consistent refreshes within 30 seconds on the same device (Shield TV). I'm also testing it on the PC - seems to be the same issue - log is from the PC version.

Not sure what it's trying to go into tmdb.org for if Thumbnails/Fanart is cached...

What is most confusing is....the image is of movies I do have...like this Layton one

https://image.tmdb.org/t/p/original/iXzE...uDqQdR.jpg

As the log shows is (unsupported image)...not sure why! It seems to work A-OK when visiting the link. But again - bit confused as to why it is attempting to visit tmdb url....and not just access it on the cache in the mysql...
