I have sorted this now looks like I was having trouble updating to the beta of the skin helper script. But i do have a suggestion is it possible to get an option for it to scan the library and perhaps grab the first available animated item and auto download them instead of it being so manually?

And also can you have it save the images to the media folders so it can just be done on one device and then the others will be able to just pick the images up?

It already works like that... It will auto download the first animated art for the movies in your library if you enabled the animated art option.

Saving to library folders is not possible because of a Kodi restriction. Animated gifs only work if they're stored locally.
If they're stored elsewhere, it will only display a static image. This is most probably because of the Kodi image caching system not able to handle the animated gifs.

That's why I choose to save the animated art to the local thumbnails directory

It doesn't go through your library and grab them all in one go, it doesn't happen til you hover on the movies will the scraper then go off and get the animated images?

If the images are stored in the thumbnail directory why can't they just go to the media folders like it does when you get artwork via the artwork downloader and then your script/skin import/read the folder path to them?

also, I have maze runner in my library and your scraper is not even finding the poster even thou there is one on the site you scrape and I have double checked that the IMDB id matches

I'm a bit confused, so any help would be appreciated
