Being new to the open-source community, I'm confused about the status of the bug fix. The change history comments seem to indicate that the bug is still open, however, I see a couple of patches in the attachments section.
What are my options at this point?...
1. install the patches
2. wait for the bug fix
3. is there a workaround? Would it help if I removed all of my coverart/fanart files from the movie folders and then let xbmc re-scrape? Am I seeing this bug because the paths to my coverart are trying to be stored in the db? If I let xbmc discover the coverart on its own then would the path problem go away?
Thanks again for your help!
It's not solved yet, the patches posted in the bug report don't solve the problem under windows environments. firnsy (the developer of the XBMC MySQL feature) is waiting for an upcoming db redesign to look for a solution regarding this bug after the implementation of the new db. I think his choice is reasonable because probably the db redesign may even solve the bug for itself, but for now the only solution that I see to add local paths is to share the path in the network first, and then choose it as a source in XBMC using its networked path instead of the local one... Let me know if that option worked for you. Good luck!
