I recently installed Boxee+ Hacks on my Boxee Box which actually lets me make use of fanart now. So Ive been attempting to scrape fanart for all of my movies/shows. TV shows worked perfectly without a hitch, saved where I wanted them too and everything worked perfectly. Movies on the other hand have been a pain in the butt.
All of my movies are in their own folder with the poster and nfo set up as follows
I would like the fanart to simply save as fanart.jpg in the same folder however it seems to either throw an error
or only download the fanart into an extrathumbs folder, even if i choose extrafanart. Ive tried all diff settings, telling it to save as fanart.jpg, <movie>-fanart.jpg etc. It seesm TMDB is the only place to scrape fanart and when the window comes up to select fanart I am presented with all the fanart and the image dimensions say multiple with a check box. I also have the option for original (which sometimes shows the dimensions and sometimes just says X) and poster. 9/10 times no fanart is downloaded no matter what combination of radio buttons and check boxes I use. If by chance fanart does download it saves it inside an extrathumbs folder as I said above.
Any help? I have used 1.3.0.7 and 1.3.0.7 fix2 and a few older versions to no avail.
UPDATE: Using the automated fanart scrape for missing items works (and works really fast) but I have no way to change a fanart if I dont like it. *shrug*
