Version 0.16.1 is now available. New features are "landscape" images from TheAudioDB for music artists, which can also be added to music videos, and options to disable all automatic processing for individual media types. It also includes fixes for archived media files in Krypton and earlier, and automatic processing after single item updates in Leia.
@Powerhouse See the Usage documentation for usage beyond the basic "generally handle extended artwork just as Kodi and scrapers already do for basic artwork".
1. With version 0.16.0+ there are switches in the settings that completely disable processing for specific media types, so flip those as you like. The other switches here only apply to artwork pulled from web services, it still processes local files. Artwork Beef won't replace any images unless you select them manually, it just fills in missing artwork.
2. Enable the setting "process movie set artwork in a central info directory" then set the "central info directory" to the same directory configured in MSAA
3. Local artwork for the music library isn't supported at all yet, but when it is I don't know if AB will support downloading them in Krypton and below.
@smitchell6879 If you are on Leia, a recent scraper update adds basic collection artwork (poster as "set", fanart as "setfanart") to each movie in the database rather than the movie collection, then Artwork Beef downloads that if configured. Upcoming changes to Leia core should apply them to the movie collection as expected.
