Ok after spending most of the day trying to figure this out I need some help...
Running 10.0 on Lucid for 2 days now and everything is perfect except the music department.
I have my music fully id3 tagged renamed in the following structure:
/music/artist name/album name/mp3's
Added the folder as a source and scanned everything into the library with the allmusic scraper. So far no problems and I have all my music in the library. Missing a couple of thumbs so I added those manually as folder.jpg.
Yesterday I found a couple of albums in a seperate folder so I added them as a seperate folder in the same music source. Updated the library and all of a sudden all of those 10 new albums have artist fanart! Something I have never seen before. Even the albums from Dutch artists have fanart, I like it. But the only way for me to get artist fanart for the rest off my collection is by updating every artist manually!! And that only works if I first go to change scraper and click on allmusic. It is allmusic by default but if I don't follow this process the scraper keeps asking for the artist name....
What the F is going on??
Somehow I got 10 albums to show up in my library in a perfect way but
I don't know how. If I look in the xbmc.log I see a lot of the following entries when I add new stuff into the music library:
"Parse: Could not find scraper function CreateArtistSearchUrl"
Any idea what is going on?

This debug log shows what happens if I manually try to update artist info for 1 artist. The first time it does not work, after going to change scraper and clicking on allmusic it does work!

This is the log for adding 1 album and updating the library. Result is the new album with thumb and info but no artist info or fanart....
The album i added is U2 - How to dismantle an atomic bomb. Easier to search for that frase in the log....
