Yep, Fanart.tv api is junk. Doesn't scrap artwork half the time and if it does, it is very very slow grabbing artwork, almost 56k speeds. I usually have to go directly to fanart.tv website to grab artwork as it's way faster then using the plugin included in TMM. The rest of the scraping options are fast. It's just fanart.tv that's the problem and is where i like to pull my artwork from when it works right but sadly it's not reliable at all. I do have a api key also but still just headaches. Oh well can't complain much since it's free, right? Good day.

downloading via tmm is done by their API server (which is a different server than the webpage)..
the problem is at 100% on their side :/
