Btw do you know a quick way to alter the script so the images get stored in folders named by artist? (Ofcourse i haven't looked at the code yet)
That way i could mass download new backdrops to beef up the fanart.tv site

On line 274 replace:

Code:

CacheName = xbmc.getCacheThumbName(self.NAME).replace('.tbn', '')

with:

Code:

CacheName = self.NAME

I think that should do it. The files themselves will still have hashed names with .tbn as the extension, but changing them to .jpg should be fine. If I recall, the fanart.tv folks were very picky about image size and quality, so you'll probably want to set artist slideshow to only download stuff that's 1920x1080 or larger.
