Once again the skin is simply stunning. I keep on going through all my movies one by one to see them in the new Netflix view lol
I do seem to have come across something strange though. For some movies (new ones without any extrafanart) eg Avengers Infinity War or Wonder Woman, I simply cannot get the fanart to rotate. What all these movies have in common is :
1) They did not have extra fanart previously (ie no extrafanart folder) as Artwork Downloader had stopped working.
2) I used Artwork Beef to download new fanart into the extrafanart folder.
3) Fanart would not rotate so I refreshed the movie. No joy.
4) I copied the Avengers extrafanart folder to a movie that does rotate and all good. The Avengers fanart shows and cycles.
5) I copied the extrafanart folder from a movie that does rotate to Avengers. Still nothing. Same with Wonder Woman etc.
These movies seem to be stuck on whatever fanart kodi chooses when the movie is added to the library. My last resort is to dump/clean the library and start again but hoping that there is a solution please?
PS it's the same with TV Shows except that none had extrafanart previously. They do now after using Artwork Beef but no cycling . NB TV Shows artwork is stored locally on Vero4K internal flash.
PPS I tried on both my Vero4K+ and HTPC and same (for movies at least as they are stored on a NAS so same source etc).
PPS Switched back to Titan skin on my HTPC and still no cycling so guess something to do with Skin Helper Service?
Thanks
There is a working version of Artwork Downloader where you add your own API keys I think MardukL has it in his repo. I use it because you can be much more selective with the amount of artwork you want it to collect than Beef. If you are having trouble with beef give it a try. You can run it in Titan and the Mods however I had to switch over to Estuary to use it to assign artwork.
A) you can start a beef from the addon , if you wann a complete.
(scan all, scan all new...)
b) you can add artwork within
open "context menu" -> select "manage..."
-> (you will see 2 options
"AB: add missing"
"AB: select artwork..."
they download and set it as default artwork.
