rschiks there is no workaround for the black background that I have?

No, not really...something with your local fanart is going wrong. I have checked the code with previous versions and I haven't changed anything concerning retrieving images from Kodi.

There's a check around Kodi versions, so if it detects an older version of Kodi (before helix) is use another method to contruct the url.

What I did change was the url constructing code for cdart and theme.mp3. That's why it's now working with folders with beyoncé. The problems mentioned in previous posts around the theme.mps and cdart subject is the way I internally construct the final url.

So are you sure nothing changed on your side, concerning Kodi, in the last few weeks?

Yes I'm sure that nothing was changed! But however I have now reinstalled kodi 15.2 from scratch and rebuild again my entire collection and also re-downloaded Kyra app, but still I have same problem as before with black background! I didn't have this issue with version 1.8.

You are right cdart for beyoncé is in the other hand working fine now with 1.9.
