Yeah I just added some new TV show files with my regular skin I use Aeon Nox 4.0 and also switched it to the default skin. Same problem exists. At start up or whenever it says scanning from TheTVdb but doesn't show what's adding like it did before with each episode or movie name.

You should use default skin for a while and post screenshots of the area with problems, not random screenshots of 3rd party skins.
Troubleshooting 101 is when you have issues use default everything so we are not seeing possible skin bugs.

It takes a while for everything to get cached, IIRC up to 2 days depending. idk if there's a magic way to speed it up.
XBMC only downloads a image if it doesn't already exist in Thumbnails folder..
Everyone has gone on upgrade and You probably can imagine the scraper sites are probably having massive traffic.
There's are now dozens of threads on this Eden>Frodo images update and everyone keeps opening new ones instead of looking, to someone replying, can you imagine replying the same thing to every same/similar question over and over again? Would you want to do it? I know I wouldn't!.

uNi, if you say it takes up to days to cache, thats fine, I have no problems there, but i was wondering, as soon as I focus a show, it starts caching the show, so can i just leave my HTPC on the main screen, on, for two or three days, or do I need to focus the shows to "trigger" the update?
Thanks for taking time to reply

idk I dont have this problem, Just by navigating around it will trigger the caching.

lastly, because i have a very slow internet connection, so when you are navigating around, and it triggers the caching, does it load artwork via the internet again, or does the scraper save it local somewhere, and it gets cached from local?
If it is cached live, from the net, what is the purpose of the scraper then now?

No It doesnt get cached live the caching is local If you dont have the image on your Thumbnails folder likely its going to get fetched when you trigger a refresh, by setting content none and back again.

I noticed I was having this same issue. even when I tired to manually add season thumbs it would say their where none available (No Art folder).
So back tracked all the way to the File view, in the "Content Menu" of the folder I went to "Change Content" and changed the scrape from thetvdb.com to something else. It then asked me to rescan my files. I chose "No". Then repeated those same steps and this time choosing the original thetvdb.com scraper. Once again it asked me to rescan my files and this time I did. Everything thing seem to be back to normal now. Art for every option and seasons.
This worked for me, hope it works for you.
