until an updated version is posted it won't work Helix changed some database tables and the add-on needs those to be fixed for it to work

I think the posts regarding this otherwise AWESOME script's Helix incompatibility are the only things holding me back from upgrading to Kodi/Helix...
Here's hoping it gets resolved by giftie or some similarly gracious person with the knowledge to do so! Love this script!

Yup until the script gets updated, it won't work on Helix.
So I just decided to install Gotham along side of Helix, and use cdArt Manager from within Gotham. Haven't run into any issues.

That's a great idea, thank you! I think some others who've commented above are doing the same thing, too.
I'm just combating a "lazy" problem on my end, haha!

Hah, yeah in my case, I had deleted my old Gotham database, so I had to re-scrape all my library...... about 36 hours later it finished scraping (45,000 songs).
The added kick to the nuts was the creation of the cdArt Manager database again, another hour or so for that. Luckily, 95% of my library already has MusicBrainz tags so it went quicker then expected.

I have also installed Gotham along side Helix to get cdartmanager function.
For the time being I cant use mysql database with music though.
Hopefully this great program will be updated for Helix!

Hey, usually I'm only reading the forums here but this time I have to say a word I think.
Is this issue still relevant or has someone already fixed the script for Helix?
I've patched my local version some weeks ago, but very quick and dirty - so if someone still needs it for Helix I could review my fixes and give a working version to you on the weekend.

Hi, I think a lot of people (like me) are eagerly awaiting for this addon to be updated...
If giftie were so kind to have a look at it and make the needed changes for Helix (since he is the original creator) would be great. If he is unable to do so or uninterested (hard for me to believe, but possible) then any help would be very appreciated !!!
Thanks to giftie and to stef.an
