Hi folks.
Are the animated poster gifs here being added to a database somewhere Kodi scrapes them or are you manually saving them in your title folder?
I ask because the gifs populating my library are automated, and no idea where they are coming from using artwork downloader with tmdb.
Some titles offer multiple choices, if I select manually using AD, and the ones here are not present.
Using Titan skin.

Hi brazen1,
If you are using titan then check the skin options, Marcel built into his skin.helper addon the means to download from rschiks db which is where all the gifs in this thread end up when rschiks does an update now and then, myself and rschiks worked with Marcel to create this. I would presume he has an option to switch on animated gifs / posters whatever?
Once the option is enabled, then I believe it still only performs a download on startup, you can check if it is working as in your userdata/thumbnails there should be an /animatedgifs folder and this is where the posters & fanart is stored and accessed.
AD is non-animated poster only, if you have Skin.helper installed to do it manually press 'C' for context menu and near the bottom you should have something like 'Select Animated Artwork', select this and then you can attempt to get either poster or fanart if they exist and this will show all available animated posters / fanart as some films have multiple and I think the autodownload just graps the 1st one.

Hey Mike.
Great info. Thank you. I think I have a few that are not in the database nor in this forum. Some collection posters too. I'll post them up.
