ronie Wrote:believe it or not, but i am :-)

as mentioned before, i don't know if it's possible...
i just did a few tests, but doesn't work so far.

i would need to download the images in one thread and
have a second thread available to handle the periodic refresh.

i know diddly about python and threading.

Laugh no worries - if you or anyone else could ever figure out how to do that multi-threading it would make this considerably slicker even than it already is IMO.

OR, if stuck with single thread, is there no way to divide each downloading task into smaller tasks? Ie, download a couple of miages, refresh, download a couple more from where it left off etc? That way the "getting stuck for ages while 100s of images for a previous artist are downloaded" problem would be eliminated.


Quote:yup, the skin can specify a fallback image or a folder of images. no problem.

Great to know - thanks Smile


Finally, I was wondering about the unnecssary creation of .dds files for all of these last.fm images if useddsfanart advanced stiing is enabled.

I asked about the possibility of disabling this in the compressed textures thread and got this response:
vdrfan Wrote:Ideally 'userdata/thumbnails' is ONLY touched from core. Add-ons usually store their data in the addon_data folder. Anyway, i think you should open a new thread for this _special_ issue.

So, it's really not a big deal, but would there be any chance of the ArtistSlideshow cache folder being placed somewhere else? Say, in the addon_data folder instead?

Thanks!


ooh, and a big +1 for incorporating HTbackdrops at some point in the future - that would be amazing!
