Seems you replied just as I was editing my post; replacing still won't give me the desired effect, as it's a skin-wide setting. Same with the disabling of fanarts. I want them enabled for music, disabled for movies. This can no longer be done, which is a shame. It's a needless over-simplification afaic. Is there a particular reason this was changed?

Also, AdvancedLauncher backgrounds are overruled by default-bg.

I missed the over simplification part. Imo its only a very small percent that actually uses that option. It complicates the code and is not in line with the other sections, which just show fanart when its available. This unifies the settings across sections. Power users that actually did use that option, like yourself, can easily change behavior by adding 1 line in variables.xml on line 4 (just treat this like an advancedsettings.xml setting):

Code:

<value condition="Container.Content(movies)">special://skin/backgrounds/fallback_movies.jpg</value>

content can be changed to tvshows/episodes/seasons/musicvideos according to your needs in subsequent lines.
The global option to disable fanart is mostly there for systems that struggle with displaying fullscreen fanart.
I will probably document this in the first post.
