What I have is images in a file called extrafanart in the same directory as the related TV show. I need a way for Kodi to scrap these images, does anyone know how?
Ok after looking more into it there is no way to actually load that into the database. Instead I will add support via <imagepath background="true">$INFO[ListItem.Path]/extrafanart</imagepath> for those who have this folder.
If you don't use the Image_Background variable, many skin background features won't be available. What you have described is the proper behaviour of Artwork Downloader local library artwork. However, the users who did not download the artwork locally, or use Artwork Beef won't have those specific folders and won't be getting their artwork displayed. Skin Helper detects the various alternatives automatically, and the proper code is already included in the mentioned variable. So simply replacing the infobool you named with $VAR[Image_Background] should switch you over to the skin track. If you've set everything else up properly, it should just work.
