I posted a debug log in msg #1003 for the grabfanart error.

Just tested this one again and yep there is a bug there.

For me enabling "Background video in PVR" works and I get LiveTV as a background while I'm in the LiveTV window.
Toggling the "Enable Background Playing Media" gets the video playing to show up behind everything.
But playing Music does result in a black background on the home screen, which I'll look at.

Just noticed that as well, but only after the last update, right? It worked before, and I didn't change a single thing in setting. Now all I get as music visualization on home screen is black :-(

Not sure when it happened, don't get the chance to use my system It was probably caused as a knock on effect from something else. Will fix it next week, Fri to Sun belongs to Hybrid !!

I posted a debug log in msg #1003 for the grabfanart error.

Looked through it and saw the error, looks like it was trying to get a number, which could be from the setting to change the refresh rate in the skin (robweber would probably know). But the skin shouldn't allow that until there is a number there. In CCM have you tried changing the refresh rate, because that would make sure there is a number there, and if the skin's at fault the error should disappear.

It seems I do not have the grab fanart script in the script section, either that or I am looking at right it and my eyes and mind refuse to see it. wondering if I just install it manually

[Mudislander]

Is it not under Get Addons --> "Services" ?

Oddly enough no it does not show under my Get Addons --> "Services", although directory does exist in my setup /userdata/addon_data/script.grab.fanart/ with only one file in the directory, that being settings.xml



Edit: Using the search function in Get Addons does not reveal it either

The forum thread is HERE with a link to it's GitHub Account. Just remember to rename the path inside the zip before you install it - GitHub normally puts something like "master" onto the folder.

Thank you Mudislander, everything seems right now.

I've been getting 3 errors at startup,
'grabfanart'
'watch history module'
'Universal addon'

Changed the refresh rate to always and only 'grabfanart' appeared again.

Convergence adds script.grab.fanart

<addon
id="skin.convergence"
version="3.0.3"
name="Convergence"
provider-name="Mudislander">
<requires>
<import addon="xbmc.gui" version="5.3.0"/>
<import addon="script.favourites" version="6.0.1"/>
<import addon="service.skin.widgets" version="0.0.29"/>
<import addon="script.simpleplaylists" version="1.1.1"/>
<import addon="script.grab.fanart" version="0.13.2"/>
<import addon="script.randomandlastitems" version="2.2.0"/>
</requires>

Edited the settings.xml file in AppData\Roaming\Kodi\userdata\addon_data\script.grab.fanart

to this:
<settings>
<setting id="mode" value="random" />
<setting id="refresh" value="10" />
</settings>

The script's settings does not allow any settings on my machine. Just a blank settings screen. Manually edited it with notepad.

Just a question - "Changed the refresh rate to always" ? Should be the numeric keyboard, so you can only enter a number.

The other two addons I've never even looked at.

I need to look at Convergence, but CCM has a string that sets the refresh rate of script.grab.fanart on startup, which is the value I've been wondering if it's not a number.

To change the setting SkinSettings-->Script Options --> "Centralised FanArt Dir" --> Adjust FanArt Script FanArt ( or something similar)

Hey guys where can I get a tutorial on installing this on my AFTV Box, TIA for any help

I installed it on my AFTV and nothing to it. Just make small changes and see what it does and keep playing around.. Very easy to use.
