When i click on information and go to remote thumb, its the proper image for that episode listed on tvdb.
So i guess my question, is why is xbmc not using the remote thumb for episodes? Why is the current art not only wrong for tv episodes, but it uses the wrong episode art for different episodes....?
Can anyone help its quite frustrating.
Hmmm seems like since i am using iso files at the moment for testing, an iso file will be something like Rome----->S01E01E02.iso
It will use the same episode art picture for both episodes....? But anyway if i go to get thumb, and select remote thumb, its the proper episode image thats found on tvdb.
Can anyone help? Im sure im not the only one using iso's with multiple episodes inside.
Not sure if it will work but try to rename the iso as S01E01 S01E02.iso
It could be a skin limitation, try using Confluence and see if that uses the correct thumb. I do not have any .iso's to test with here but like you say you cannot be the only one using them.
If you are using Artwork Downloader, then again, my guess would be that IT is duplicating the artwork on the basis that there is only one file ".iso" rather than the actual episodes in the library but may be wrong! The thing here is that it downloads/caches the artwork to the Thumbnails forder and once there can only be overwritten by manually selecting different art from under the Info page.
Like with Movies I rip all my TV Shows to seperate episodes and hold all artwork locally with them, much easier to manage and hence do not have issues like this but completely appreciate it may be easier for you to work with .iso files with multiple episodes. Saying that, do you create the .iso files yourself? Are they in a DVD structure or do they just contain seperate avi/mkv files (eg. Rome S01E01.avi, Rome S01E02.avi) if the latter then you could always add the thumbs into the .iso which XBMC may pick up, i.e. Rome S01E01.tbn for the episode image and Season01.tbn for the Season poster. Not sure if it will work but may be worth a try.
Looks like your right, it seems to be the skin......I tried confluence and added a new episode of game of thrones S01E05E06.iso, and confluence applied two different episode art properly for each episode.
