Hi Devilshura
Fancy sharing your music fallback images with us? They look quite good!
I can see what you have done and I think why it works for you is because your main music path is D:\Music_Artist\ which is a local drive.
And I think I am correct in saying - so when you play an album tagged with artist-name = "Various Artists" Artist SlideShow will display the images in the various artists\extrafanart folder on your D:\ drive. And if it can't find an image to display either remote or local for a particular artist, it will then display the images in your fallback folder instead.
This doesn't work the same for me, because my main music path is a network path SMB://WHS/Music. So Artist SlideShow will only display Remote images and not "Local" ones. Maybe I need to figure out how to add a mount point in Linux / OpenElec somehow ?
I do however have the same Various Artists folder on my file server, but Artist SlideShow won't use it currently.
This is why I asked if Artist SlideShow could instead display the "Various Artists" fanart images from Fanart.tv (Remote) when I play an album and the artist-name is tagged as "Various Artists"
