Not that you don't have enough requests to be going on with, but another one for you to please consider

Regarding animated artwork, the saving in the database is working well apart from one aspect - the path that is saved is to the locally cached version and not, like all other artwork in the database, to the original internet source. This means that when using a shared mysql database the image that is linked to doesn't exist, and the texture cache maintenance tool can't be used to pre-cache the image.

Is there any possibility of having the remote path saved into the database instead?

(My ultimate aim with both this and my previous request of having a way to trigger a scan for all artwork is to be able to use the animated artwork on lower-powered devices with a relatively lightweight skin. My ideal is for that device not to be scanning for and downloading the artwork as the library is browsed, but to trigger a scan -which the user will therefore know will be comparatively cpu/network intensive- or use another machine to actually get the artwork, then only deal with displaying it when the user is actually using the machine.)

Thanks once more for your consideration of the request, and your continued efforts on an essential script.
