I found a problem in Gotham and also is in Frodo. This is in displaying fanart for musicvideo (concerts). I have everything setup for default fanart (as far as can tell). When I first go into "concerts" I get title view and for this I get the correct musicvideo fanart displayed as the background image. (I am using "wide" view for testing but I think it is in all options). But when I change to the "artists" view, I don't get the artist fanart as background image (I do get the artist poster/thumb).

Arggh! Fixed it (at least partial). Thing is I was on the right track last night before I posted this, but didn't realize I was modding files in XBMC 13.1 B2 but testing in XBMC 13.0 B2, so nothing I did was having any (apparent) effect. So here is the problem and fix:

The problem is in MyVideoNav. At least in the "single or default fanart" case (I don't use extrafanart or some of the other art options) the problem is that what gets displayed as the background image (in many cases including concerts/musicvideos) is defined by a VAR named value_defaultvideofanart which is defined in IncludesVariables. The setting of this variable is determined by the type of content in the container (the list of stuff that you see in the MyvideoNav views). The problem is, in the case of concerts/musicvideo, when you go to the "artists" view /listing the container content is not musicvideos, but rather artists (the art comes from the music artist thumb and fanart, as well as the artist info in the panels). So what's needed is an additional setting for the variable in the case of Container.Content(artists) so I simply added this to value_defaultvideofanart:

Code:

<value condition="Container.Content(artists) + [SubString(skin.string(musicvideosfanart),fanart) | SubString(skin.string(musicvideosfanart),extra) + IsEmpty(Control.GetLabel(5020))]">$INFO[ListItem.Art(fanart)]</value>

It probably needs more tweaking to handle the "extrafanart" case (I don't have a good testbed for that ATM). Results (Low List view):
