New Beta Available (3.0.1~beta13)
v.3.0.1~beta13
- changed default download notification to show even if no images are downloaded
- added option to show download notifications only if there are images to download
- fix for theaudiodb.com plugin not downloading all three images for an artist
If you had enabled the download notification in beta12, you need to reenable it with beta13. I changed the name of the setting to be more consistent, so that broke the old setting.
Available as usual from my beta repo.
@scott967 could you check and see if the download notification is more in line with what you were expecting? I looked into the black background, and while I sped things up a bit, the basic logic looks right. You will get a "permanent" black background for an artist if your artist has no fanart defined in Kodi (or you turned off "use Kodi artist image in the AS settings) *and* there is no art for AS to display. Technically in this case AS sets it's image to blank in which case (if the skin author did as I suggested) the skin will show whatever background image it has. Since that is also empty you get nothing. The best way to avoid getting a "permanent" black background is to set a fallback folder. The fallback folder is used if no images are found for an artist.
