I'm running Matrix 19.1 with Estuary skin.  
I installed AS 3.1.1.  
How do I get it to display artist information when a song is playing? 
I've tried going to the visualization menu (both while a song is playing and in the Player options menu) and there isn't an option for Artist Slideshow.  
I tried using Run to start the add-on but nothing seems to happen.  
I forced a Library update and still nothing.  
Are there some default settings I need to change?  

I have the Generic Album and Information Scrapers enabled if that matters.  

Thanks
I'm pretty sure the stock Estuary doesn't support display of artist information. Just the artwork.  I do have an Estuary mod that includes some other AS display stuff, so you might look at that. But just to let you know, I don't use that mod myself (I use Arctic Horizon day to day), but it is stable.  See my sig for the details on the mod.

Interesting.  I was referred to this add-on because it was thought that Estuary did support artist information.  I do know I can see artist information, it just doesn't show while playing.  

Because of some previous experience and the WAF I want to stick with the official Kodi skin.  

How do I get the artwork to work?  

Thanks
Sorry, I should have been more clear. The stock Estuary doesn't support display of artist information while music is playing (which you have discovered). If you've gone into the AS settings and turned on the download for at least one music artwork source, AS should display artwork in the background when ever you bring up the full screen music without having to do anything else.

BTW, if the artist information while playing music is really important, you might at least take a look at my Estuary mod. It's like 99% stock Estuary with some more flexibility on how the main menu is ordered (and the extra AS stuff). You could probably swap it in and not really notice at all that you had changed it.
