What's the difference when using Artwork Beef exactly? I just tried it out and all it does is downloading additional or missing artwork... but I already have everything saved locally (including extrafanart for each tv show).
What exactly replaces the 'cache fanart' function here? 

Well if the latest version you have is from 2016 then that is just not accurate. I have updated the Krypton branch 21 days ago and Leia has been updated multiple times over this past week alone...

The difference is significant because Artwork Downloader only created an Extrafanart folder and downloaded images to it. Skins then needed to access it by using IMHO crappy ways linking to that fanart folder. Artwork Beef does the same in regard to downloading the images if configured properly but also adds the images to Artwork DB so it skips the extra step of doing that manually by having to "Cache" after downloading. One step instead of two   

I of course meant that the toolbox script didn't change since 2016. At least that's what I see on Git.

I'll try out Artwork Beef again then. The last time I tried it I still had to cache extrafanart manually somehow (using local artwork only).
It also created new artwork in my media folders which I didn't really wanted (seasonxy-thumb, clearlogo etc.) although I disabled everything in the settings.
