What you are seeing is not the behavior I would expect for the update. Here's what should happen the first time the update is run:

1- AS will traverse your cache folder and rename all .tbn files to the appropriate extension (most often that is .jpg).
2- AS will traverse your local folder and do the same thing.

When that is done all your directories should have just .jpg files (unless you ended up with some png or gifs when you downloaded stuff).

I'd have to see a debug log file to be sure, but it appears to me that the one time conversion routine isn't running. You're seeing duplicates because AS is downloading all the files again as jpegs from the remote sites. In the AS addon_data directory, there is a file called migrationcheck.nfo. If you want AS to try and run the migration again, either just delete that file or change the string in there to '1.5.4' (without the quotes). That should, in theory, get AS to run the migration again.

There's no actual harm to having both files, it's just you'll have twice as much crap stored on your drive.

The _exclusions.nfo file is created in each directory automatically. To exclude something you have to go in and manually add the image name to that file. So if you haven't done that, then you're not using the _exculsion.nfo file.

Hi

OK I will try what you suggested with the migrationcheck.nfo file and I'll turn on debug log before hand.

So you are saying it should have converted and removed all .tbn files to image files, both in the local cache directory and on my file server.

Looking in the local cache directory now, first thing I noticed is I have two "ArtistSlideshow" folders which doesn't look correct, one is totally empty so I am going to delete that one.



Looking in the other ArtistSlideshow folder and in the artist sub-folders within, for the ones I looked inside of, I can see no .tbn files present, only JPG files and those _exclusions.nfo files. And no I have not been using the _exclusions.nfo files and I have not been manually adding the image name etc.

Example of how the artist folder contents now look:



Thanks

EDIT: Also just noticed that when clicking in to the artist sub-folders in the cache, quite a good number of them are empty.
