For those who want to play with the new version and are using a Nightly version, here you go... http://www.mediafire.com/file/cvi8s8e94h....1.3.4.zip

A couple of notes.

• Both the script and fanart.tv use MusicBrainz for accuracy. It might be a good idea to have your music library checked using software that matches it to MusicBrainz( such as MusicBrainz's Picard, or Jaikoz)
  
  
• The database that the script builds takes a little while to complete(as it can only check MusicBrainz once a second) so I added an option to build the library in the background(while you do other things with XBMC(watch a movie, listen to some music) To activate this, in settings(after you set up all the settings) under extra settings, click on 'Build Database' then click on OK. It might be best to let it build overnight(right now it does not notify you when it is complete)
  
  
• There is an option in Extra Settings - Overwrite low res cdart. This will tell the script to check the size of your existing cdARTs and cover images(cdart.png and folder.jpg) and if they happen to be under 1000px X 1000px(the new size of cdarts), the script will download artwork from fanart.tv. Keep in mind there is still about 1400 low res cdarts on fanart(shrinking everyday) so the script will still download the low res(even though it probably already matches the existing one) This setting is turned off by default.
  
  
• For multidiscs albums the script looks for the albums to be in separate folders for each CD. This is also this way since there is only one 'cdart.png' file per folder. The script looks for folder names that contain the following 'labels': CD, Disc, Part, pt(case insensitive). For example, a folder layout like this:
  
  
  Album
  [INDENT]CD 1
  [INDENT]tracks
  CD 2
  
  tracks
  [/INDENT][/INDENT]
  
  It is also limited to three digits(ie 1 - 999 - though I haven't seen many above 10 ) It also checkes the Album title for the same(but this often is only set to the Album name) I have found this to be a little tempermental, it does not always pick up the disc number(this can be fixed in the database) And will still be worked on before the official release.
  
  
• The Skin of the script has had a moderate make over and is not quite 'complete'(ie not yet perfect) so there might be some little graphical glitches(any skinner's want to help out, this would be appreciated - you can always make versions for your own skin that suit your skins too )
  
  
• The script can use some language translations(a few new strings have been added and others have been changed)
  
  
• A Dharma release will soon follow, though it's proving to be troublesome on with files on Windows.
  
  
• Positve critisms are always appreaciated..
  

This script is a little better at handling errors(though one or two might have snuck through) and hopefully it will no longer hang, forcing a restart of XBMC(I tried to make sure the errors were handled and logged)

Please test it out.. I might have the Dharma Verision out tomorrow, depending on how it behaves..
