Can someone tell me please what is the nfo format in order to achieve that ?
It's very hard to find some info on it because Nox is (I think) the only skin that deals with extrathumbs.
Is it runned by the skin or by artwork downloader ?
I already tried something like this in my nfo but it's not working :
<art>
<extrathumb1>path1</extrathumb1>
<extrathumb2>path2</extrathumb2>
<extrathumb3>path3</extrathumb3>
<extrathumb4>path4</extrathumb4>
</art>
I need to point it locally because gifs only work if they are on the same machine that runs Kodi and my media files are on a Nas samba share so nfo is the only solution I've got so far.
but maybe i am wrong... doesnt check this topic a while now
Thanks for your answer ! Anyway if anyone is interested in this, I made it work by adding extrathumb1,2,3 and 4 to artwork downloader, and then selecting them with "get illustration"..
The Gifs have to be on the same machine that runs Kodi and not on a smb share.
Anyway, I noticed another bug related to animated posters (gifs). They work in every view but they don't work for poster widgets on main menu. I didn't try dev branch but I'll assume it's the same. Anyone knows about it ?
Animated Poster working without any issue as Widget on main menu. Shortcuts-dev branch.. but as I recall was working with Mike's Git Madnox too !
