You can fork my project on Github, make the changes and submit those changes to your fork.
After that you can create a pull request on Github:
https://github.com/marcelveldt/script.sk...vice/pulls --> Create pull request
Press "compare across forks" in the above details.
Set head fork to your fork and press submit pull request.
That way your changes will be properly merged

From the readme:
Note: the default interval for the backgrounds is set at 30 seconds. If you want to change this interval you can set a Skin String "SkinHelper.RandomFanartDelay" with the number of seconds as value.
If you're using my Titan skin: the setting is in skin settings --> background settings

Not latest, I downloaded it when you commit: "version bump" as I asked...
Did your fix is after that commit ? If so, can you make another version bump ? 10x

2. Can you mark a recording as a movie? Or if the word "movie" in the genre.
3. Lol you are right. I was looking at it and kept seeing the title as exact but you are right the "part" is missing thanks for that .
Yer your idea could work. If not found exact go to closes match.
4. Thank you I will try it out. Thank
I have improved things a bit:
1. There's now always an xml file generated with the details to be used as persistant cache, much faster than the old method of going through all folders. The checksum.txt file can be deleted as it is no longer used.
2. Improved the TMDB matching a bit; if movie is in the genre it will assume the type is movie and it will also take the best match if no exact match is found.
3. Download artwork for normal pvr guide entries is now disabled by default to not waste drive space.

P.S. Thought of heaps of features but not sure if it works with this addon script. Eg. Random art in a grid for background, visualization and maybe screen saver.
Can show concept design if wanted. Similar to WMC music playing background.
OK, thanks in advance for your PR of the readme and testing the recent changes.
I'd love to see your concept design of the random art grid. I have Always loved that in MCE, even as the pictures screensaver btw

Wmc moves the background from top to bottom and left to right. Maybe just have images randomly changing.

Background view like this with either poster, fanart, artist thumb or album thumb.
That can be done, but has to be done skin-side completely

Was thinking that would be the case. Can you on the skinning side create screensaver. Thought it had to be a addon for kodi to use it. I only mentioned it here because of all your work with artwork.
Was thinking it would be good to have skinhelper.pvrbackground.grid ect...
For the screensaver, yes, you need to create a screensaver addon. Never done that before but can imagine it can also do a bit skinning stuff..
I was thinking about that grid background.. That might also be possible with just python code and the PIL module...
