Release Artist Slideshow addon (with skin and addon integration)

I believe that is a LastFM limit. You have an artist that has put out 50 albums?!?!? That's pretty impressive.

Quote:Is there any way to have these images only focusing on the artist himself, without having to run the music to receive such images albums, a kind of offline mode?

Nope. Artist Slideshow is meant to show artwork, not download it (it really just downloads them to a cache because XBMC's slideshow has to have local images to work). I think there's something called CDArt Manager that will do offline downloads of artist images.

Quote:A second request, you can add to the script, the year of release of the each album?

I looked. The short answer is "no." The long answer is that Last.FM doesn't include the album year is the feed that gives me the list of albums. I can technically get the album year if I cycle through every album and ask Last.FM for the year, but that is a pretty heavy handed use of the API (in your case 50 calls for just that one artist) to get back such a small piece of information. So it's not going to happen. Sorry.
