stef.an, am I right in thinking that if I rename your mod folder to just script.cdart.manager, and copy it over the top of the existing version it will work without having to remove the original version? The reason being that if an official update is pushed, i'll get it automatically as a pose to having to check this thread for updates.
I know giftie has been on the forums since Helix has been released, as i've seen his username in the users list, just that he hasn't posted here in a while.
Yes, imho it should work the way you described it. Just download the ZIP and replace the contents of the original directory. But I just don't know if Kodi continues updating the script from the repositories after you changed the contents of the original folder.
I personally use a version which I've modded much heavier than the one I published here now, which I constantly debug after upgrading my Kodi release. That's why I made these changes to my script a while ago without noticing this thread. Basically gifties script is a great addition to my personal Kodi experience an I just wanted to make things a little easier for those who also like Helix AND cdART Manager.
But yes, that's why I neither incremented the version number of the script nor added anything except those fixes. I really don't want to take control of anything here, all credits stay with giftie and I'm sure he has his reasons for taking his time. So I absolutely recommend keeping track of the original version an install it instantaneous after it being officially updated for Helix.
