Yes I will do the same as you then and get a suitable screen saver that uses some CPU cycles and do what I did with early Frodo and leave the box on 24/7. .

You may wanna test "multi slideshow screensaver" and configure it to point to your fanart folder.
It displays a nice wall with your fanarts, switching them randomly.

EDIT: a quick question to all of you
On croniccorey gotham 13.2 build, if i updated my database, it looked for new content but didn't clean the database.
Now every time i update the database, it does clean it at the end, resulting in some of my tv shows disappearing, because the folders are empty (no episode in).
Is it normal behavior ?
any way to disable the "cleaning part" of the process ?
I like to be able to see my tv shows in the list, even if the folder is empty (waiting for a new season for example).

Corey puts a default advancedsettings.xml in /usr/share/kodi/system with this section:

Code:

<videolibrary>
    <recentlyaddeditems>100</recentlyaddeditems>
    <cleanonupdate>true</cleanonupdate>
    <hideemptyseries>true</hideemptyseries>
    <hideallitems>true</hideallitems>
    <dateadded>0</dateadded>
    <importwatchedstate>true</importwatchedstate>
    <importresumepoint>true</importresumepoint>
  </videolibrary>

You need to make your own .kodi/userdata/advancedsettings.xml to override this with:

Code:

<advancedsettings>
  <videolibrary>
    <cleanonupdate>false</cleanonupdate>
  </videolibrary>
</advancedsettings>
