Usually Kodi checks cached images after 48h, but I'm not sure if this hash check will only be triggerd for absolute file paths. Could this be? Maybe a option to trigger a refresh would be useful.
And another side question:
You moved some parts to single addons (skin.helper.widgets, skin.helper.skinbackup). Are they already on their way to the official Kodi repo? I'm asking, because I have to change my implementation.
1) refreshing the artwork is entirely up to the kodi texture cache which I believe will update artwork indeed every 24 or 48 hours.
If you want to force a refresh you can just make sure to add something to the path that is changing, for example add &refresh=$INFO[System.Date] to the web service url
2) Well, I'm currently ironing out the latest flaws but I'm about to publish to the Kodi repo if nobody has objections.
So let me state it this way: Are you guys all ready for this with your skins as the new version has some breaking changes.
