Frodo: prefer local posters/fanart
#1
Hello,

I have a harddrive full of my movies with proper filenames on my NAS, and I want XBMC to use the local images for my library instead of the scraped URLs in the nfo-files.
Right now, it downloads and caches the URLs from the scraper (IMDB etc.) instead of using my already downloaded posters/fanart.

Here's what it looks like on my NAS:

Here's what the MySQL database looks like after refreshing the library:

I'm using XBMC 12.0RC3. Anybody knows how to use the locally saved images?


EDIT: I also just realized that there is no option to manually choose the local image in the context menu.

EDIT2: TV series have no images at all, unfortunately.

Why do your NFO files reference remote artwork if you have them locally? Sounds like your NFOs are wrong - remove the remote artwork references from the NFOs and XBMC will then find the artwork locally.
Texture Cache Maintenance Utility: Preload your texture cache for optimal UI performance. Remotely manage media libraries. Purge unused artwork to free up space. Find missing media. Configurable QA check to highlight metadata issues. Aid in diagnosis of library and cache related problems.

And why are you using RC3?
