I've got a question, not specifically about ViMediaManager, but how a media manager interacts with XBMC Frodo in terms of art. For movies, I've found that posters, fanart and extra fanart show up automatically in XBMC. However, some other types of art, especially disc art (disc.png) don't.
I've read about the Aeon Nox skin (which I'm using, not sure if this problem is skin-specific). There are some very confusing threads saying, I think, that you have to run Artwork Downloader, set to use local images in the Advanced section of the configuration. I did this. Apparently it didn't always use local images because it replaced some of the disc.png's I had in the movie folders. But it does show disc art when browsing movies now (this is in Showcase view).
I guess this is a result of how Frodo is set up, but I wonder if I'm missing something. Is there no way to just make all the kinds of art in the movie folder show up in XBMC when you scan it in?
