I have the same problem with my artwork. I just spent the last few days after work replacing artwork I didnt like with artwork I do like manually (poster, clearart, logos) and making sure I have a poster, clearart, and logo for all movies. Took me a nice long, long time going through 350 folders, haha. So when I started seeing artwork that I didnt personally choose, I knew something was up. Im using an altered version of Titian that uses clearart on the overlay and poster and logo on the EPG. Its downloading everything, and using nothing I already have. I reverted back to about a 2 month old PTVL (not home and cant check the version) and its back to loading my artwork correctly. I was going to do a fresh install of xbmc to see if it helped, but with others having some issues too, I might hold off (and I forgot I have to go to my newphews bday party today so I probably would have time anyway)

Are you saying that PTVL is downloading different cleararts then you had in your library? I ask because for me 4.6 isn't downloading anything but what it is doing is using the fanarts that I have in my folders rather than the landscapes like it is supposed to.

I'm just curious if you are getting cleararts like you want and the problem is just that you are getting the wrong cleararts or if you are getting fanarts like I am seeing.

I am not sure where it is getting the artwork from. But judging from the delay it seems to be from the internet. Plus some of the artwork it is getting is different from mine. Some is even in what looks like German. The screenshot below shows a different poster for bates motel. The top window is the local art and the bottom one that is highlighted is what was downloaded.



Also not having much luck with the automated background spooling feature. It just fails for me, forcing me to download the art when selecting show/movie in the EPG.

Edit
One last thing that worries me is the size of the artwork folder once all my media is cached. It has already reached 67 mbs with 307 jpg's and png's and it has hardly cached anything as far as my collection goes. I estimate it to be in the gigabytes by the time it is done!

Same problem for me. However, all my old problems are fixed (default skin not working, automatic update not working, epg problems). My issue now is that it only seems to download artwork when an item is highlighted in the EPG, which is making the EPG extremely laggy. Also, as someone above said, with the size of my collection, i'm extremely concerned about the final size of that folder. Especially since the cache is on my SSD.
