There is, to my knowledge, no platform specific code in Artist Slideshow, and I believe I have seen other people posting who are using raspbmc. Please post a debug log of your issue so I can look into it.

New Production Release (1.5.4)
This should appear in the XBMC add-on repo in the next few days. Note that htbackdrops recently came back with a new URL (htbackdrops.org), so 1.5.4 has support for htbackdrops with the new URL.
v.1.5.4
- artist bio and album list now come from theaudiodb.com by default (Last.fm as fallback)
- added download of images from fanart.tv
- added download of images from theaudiodb.com
- added musicbrainz ID support
- updated URL for htbackdrops to htbackdrops.org
- added advanced feature to exclude files from download
- rearranged settings some to make options clearer
- set new location for .nfo files separate from image files
- added migration code to move old .nfo files to new locations and names
- updated cache manager to leave .nfo files intact
- fixed bug where cached images wouldn't be merged for featured artists
- fixed featured artist parsing
- fixed last.fm showing unexpected results
- fixed artists with unicode characters in name returning no results from Last.fm
- changed over to urllib2 for downloads
- additional error catching across the board

Just installed the latest and greatest.....
When I start up my music on XBMC, the first artist displays perfectly.....scrolls through several pictures of the artist. If I click the right arrow to play the next song (random artist), the first artist image for the new artist shows for a split second, then I get a black screen for all further artists as I skip to the next song, so on and so forth.

Without a debug log and some description of your setup (including which skin you are using) there isn't much help I can provide.

Hello pkscout
Once again, THANK you for doing this.
Two things:
1) What happened to the excellent "Display progress images during first download" option the addon once had? Can't find it anywhere in 1.5.4 and it just shows a black background now when downloading artwork.
2) How come that when I select "Use both local and remote artwork", it always waits for at least one image to be downloaded before displaying anything? Hence, it shows the black background, even which local fanart the right place (Music\Artist\extrafanart).
Best regards,
Rasmus
