I noticed this with my external hard drive. When the hard drive was in standby whenever I browsed through my movie library the hard drive would wake up even though I have everything cached. Is the extrafanart folder the cause of this?
Is there a program to move the images from the extrafanrt folder to the main folder. I don't fancy manually moving and renaming all the images to fanart1, fanart2 etc.
Movie ExtraFanart
And it depends on where the Skin is looking for this artwork.
Usually, the extrafanart/extrathumbs should be found in corresponding folders.
But, this is up to the Skin developer to state where this artwork should be place. And preferably, the skin should fall-back to the Kodi recommended layout.
Quote:Maybe a script or something could be used.Media Companion places the artwork as per the Wiki. Though I might look into this in the future to have the option of in the Movie's Folder....
Quote:Also does MC scrape for character art. Is there any sites that have character art?At present MC does not scrape Character Art.
Thanks
