I have made a couple of changes to my Kodi setup. From now on I'm following the Kodi instructions, regarding extra video library artwork. I moved the fanart1, fanart2, etc images to the main movie/tv shows folders for the movie library. I removed the extrafanart folders. I defined all extra artwork in an advancedsettings.xml and finally I have rescanned my movie/tv show library locally by using .nfo files. Here are my experencies so far.

Movie Library
1). For the movies I have to enable "Artwork Beef Fanart" in the skin top menu to see the fanart1, fanart2, etc images.
2). Enabling "Extra Fanart" in skin the top menu, results in a black background.

Since I'm following the Kodi guidelines now, I had expected that I had to enable "Extra Fanart", instead of "Artwork Beef Fanart" to see the extra fanart images.

TV Shows Library
Section TV Shows
3). For the tv shows I have to enable "Artwork Beef Fanart" in the skin top menu to see the fanart1, fanart2 etc images. Although all my tv shows have extra fanarts in the video folder, for a lot of tv shows I don't see the fanarts rotating. Only the default fanart is displayed
4). Enabling "Extra Fanart" in skin the top menu, results in a black background.


TV Shows Library
Section Seasons
5). Enabling "Default Fanart", "Extra Fanart", or "Season Fanart" in the skin topmenu results in a black background.
In the season skin top menu there's no Artwork Beef Fanart setting in the skin topmenu. Fanart/Extra Fanart in the season windows seems broken.

I also ran into some irregularities regarding extra fanart for the music library. I'll post a separate message for this later.


EDIT: there seems to be a relation between point 3 and 5. When extra fanarts work/rotate for a tv show, the season window has a black background. When extra fanarts don't work/rotate, the season window displays the default fanart.
