I checked Kodi's Wiki but as I mentioned before there is a limit to 1080P:
xml:<advancedsettings>
<imageres>1080</imageres>
<fanartres>1080</fanartres>
</advancedsettings>
So I've poked in Kodi's code and found that imageres and fanartres are kept in these variables: m_fanartRes and m_imageRes. Searching for those vars got me here: https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/search?utf8...rtRes&type=
Please Kodi devs. Let us users have those beautiful, crisp fanart images on our 4K displays.
Edit: I know that there is one workaround. I can manually swap image after it is cached to thumbnails folder but for hundreds of movies this is no-can-do. Maybe there is some script that will automagically copy fanart.jpg from movie folder and copy it to appropriate thumbnails folder? (until Kodi will let us use higher resolution fanarts).

Pretty much all new enthusiast-oriented TVs are 4K and have been for quite a while now, so improved 4K support in Kodi seems to me a priority. I guess video in 4K is working OK, but the GUI is somehow hardcoded for 1080p? It still works well, of course, but we all want that WOW-factor, right. Ah well, wishes and dreams.
