Hey, Kyle,
I have another quick question/issue about Artist Slideshow. I have some artists in my collection whose names are part of other artists names, which causes additional unrelated artwork to be displayed. For instance, for Spoon, I also get artwork for Jam & Spoon and T Spoon. For Goblin, I also get Orange Goblin.
Prince is particularly bad, as it also gets me Bonnie 'Prince' Billy, Pantha Du Prince, Alexandra Prince, Baby boy da Prince, DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince, Bobby Prince and others. Basically, if I go to htbackdrops.org and search for "Prince," I can see all the different artists and artwork I also get when I play Prince. It appears that the fanart.tv artwork is only for Prince, not the other artists.
I remember that Artist Slideshow uses MusicBrainz to figure out the correct artist. When I click on an artist picture at htbackdrops.org, I see that the site uses a MusicBrainz ID. Is there any way to avoid this issue, aside from disabling htbackdrops.org?
Don't get me wrong, Artist Slideshow is awesome and I really appreciate it! This minor bug is still slightly annoying, though, so I figured I'd see if you knew about it.
Thanks again for all your time and effort!
