So I guess no one even has an idea why we are only getting the poster and fanart, but not clearart,cdart,thumbs and whatever more?
I would assume something changed at the fanart.tv api, but that my own not so subtle idea...

Don't think there is an API change as mediacompanion is still scraping the extra artwork from fanart.TV. for local storage.

Strange. It works just fine for me. You'd think this would be universal?

I have an issue with AD. I'm running Kodi 15.2 on windows 10 with the MQ6 skin.
Everything was fine until yesterday when I added a couple of movies and ran AD to uplate the fanart. Now nearly all my movies have the wrong poster, background, disc and clear art. Many have the sames art duplicated across multiple titles and these are of movies I don't have and have never had on my computer. This is the same for movies and TV shows.
I've rerun AD with both local and centralized options and tried the replace art option. All this does is add more unwanted images to my directories.
Does anyone know how to fix this?

I don't know whether it is universal but as soon as i deleted the year from the directory and filenames, artwork downloaded correctly on all movies that had problems (logo, clearart, fanart, banner, discart, etc) . Looking at my added date to library, it seems that the problem started to appear at the end of October.

Deletinb dates didn't help me. On my system only movies are affected. TV shows work fine. AD reports that only posters and backgrounds are downloading. Disc art etc. Says not found.
Once the wrong images are downloaded they are linked to the movie files database and become impossible to remove. Even changing the configuration of AD to not use local files and replace files doesn't fix the issue.
I managed to restore about 75% of the titles by switching local files off in AD, closing kodi and renaming my movie directory to moviesold. I then created a blank directory and named that movies.restarted kodi, ran clean up video library. Quit again. Changed the directory back to movies, restarted kodi and ran update library.
It works for most of the titles but some are still refusing to display the correct art.

To those affected, what operating system are you using?

Wondering if this addon is accessing tmdb first and since the tmdb API change is getting mucked up?
