If you've got local artwork it will be ignored until you replace the remote artwork urls with your local urls - that's what mklocal.py is for, although mklocal.py doesn't make any changes to your library. You use mklocal.py to generate the remote-to-local changes that you then apply to your media library using texturecache.py - if you don't apply those changes (using "texturecache.py set") then nothing will be changed in your media library. It sounds like you're not running this final step.
Thank Milhouse, I was in fact not doing that last step....
My reasoning was flawed, because the 1st time I tried to run the mklocal.py and texturecache.py, I was running it from within the Synology and I was getting an error as it was not able to find the Texture database....
Once I ran it from my windows machine running Kodi, it downloaded everything fine ...
I did not ran the "set" command because I was not sure of the outcome and didn't want to corrupt my database ...
So I thought that it was only modifying the Texture database and not the MyVideo## database....
So today, I backed up my database, and ran the command
Code:
type fixup.dat | texturecache.py set
And voila !! all is good
thanks a bunch once again !
