Hello. On my Android box I was happily using Titan Beta 3.6.45, then I presume an update just happened for the skin helper service and Titan reverting back to Titan 3.6.43 with errors. I had to restart Kodi, but lost my short cuts which isn't really a problem to me. As I'm typing, I am downloading 3.6.46 and the good news is everything is back to normal, almost, but still getting the Skin Helper Service error. I just updated the Titan skin on my pc and had no problem at all. I can open the Skin Helper Service(1.0.69) on my pc, but on my Android box the add on can't be configured. Installation is missing files, please reinstall the skin helper service addon to fix this issue.
I installed the Titan 3.6.46 skin using the emby beta repo.

Hi Marcelveldt,
Bit of an update I have updated to Titan Jarvis Beta 3.6.46 and installed new skin helper 1.0.69 and I am still getting blank cdart coming up when first go into the music albums but what I have found is if I press to get the context menu up and click on Music Artwork settings & then refresh Item, it will bring the cdart up as before but lose it again if move to different album and this is the difference now is if I restart kodi the cdart I refreshed is now showing up correctly the only downside to this is would have to go through each album one by one to get the cdart to stick, but hey ho it's progress I guess lol. Anyway just though would let you know what I seem to have found.
Cheers

Try the following:
Skin Settings --> General settings --> Skin helper addon settings --> Music artwork --> clear cache
That will wipe the music artwork cache. After that start browsing through your albums again and see if it's all working normal

I have also noticed when doing it this way to get the cdart, if an artist album has more than 1 CD it will not bring up the cdart either.
OK, we're getting there slowly...
I forgot to mention that after clearing the cache you had to restart Kodi.
Now we have to find out why it isn't working for some artists. A few more questions:
1. For the artist's that are not working, can you confim that you indeed have cdart for those albums ? Not albums have cdart available.
2. Can you check if the folder on disk has the same name as the artist's name in Kodi ?
3. For Multi disc albums, do you have your songs in a subfolder with the discname ?
BTW: If you're Dutch and prefer to continue in Dutch you may also send me a PM.

I have the same freezing issues, Video freezes and audio continues.
On Nvidia Shield. Can't reproduce it. But I think it has something do to with an remote input.
Edit: The error occured 2 times now after downloading and applying a subtitle through an addon. Maybe there's a problem.

Think I've found my new favourite skin!
But there's one thing that irritates me:
When I want to set multiple images for user-defined backgrounds I can only choose between network shares, but I want to use images that are stored locally.
So how can I point to a local directory?

The file pickers (file browse dialogs) in Kodi only show any sources that you have added to the file manager.
Yeah, I know it's a bit strange behaviour but I can't help it ;-)
So, just open the File Manager and add some sources.

And the cdart, is that at album level or disc level ?
I saw Anouk (Dutch artist) so I assumed you're Dutch ;-)
