wouldn't know what the skin does i'm pretty new with XBMC,
always used (and still :sniffleSmile MC7+MB and normally i use MediaCenterMAster to get all the info of the movies.
and i know that it stores the pictures and and info in the MOVIES/MOVIENAME/ folder and not in BDMV location.
because it could break the original folder structure of a blu-ray what could break the playback in some external players.
also getting sometimes errors that it can't store the images in there because of the rights

After some trying i found that skins will go looking for artwork in
Quote:MOVIES/MOVIENAME/BDMC/
MOVIES/MOVIENAME/VIDEO_TS
and I don't think there is an easy solution for skins to change that.

What you could do yourself is create and .iso from the blurays or make them write protected. Will ask skinners if there's a way of handling this.

Great addon!
Just one suggestion:
The option to start at XBMC start (running windows) is good, though it would be better that a daemon started at xbmc startup, waiting like 5-10 seconds, then check if XBMC is doing a movie/tv-show scan. If it is, just wait another 5 seconds and check again. Do that until XBMC is not scanning anymore. Then you can launch the artwork downloading.

It would be truly awesome since it then can download new artwork for the new movies directly, instead of doing it at next start-up Smile

martijn, I had to do a full reinstall and rescan all my media and now all problems been resolved so far, but the idea of delaying the AD to start after 2 mins xbmc seems to be a good one

Translations.... - Martijn - 2012-01-10 11:42

If any one feels like translating the English string to their native language....?

Currently available:
English
Dutch
Polish


How-to:
The most recent Englsih strings file can be found here:
https://github.com/paddycarey/script.artwork.downloader/blob/master/resources/language/English/strings.xml
and here:
https://github.com/paddycarey/script.artwork.downloader/blob/master/addon.xml

The easiest way would be to fork the repo and send a pull request.
Other methodes like send zipped file or post the strings on http://pastebin.com

I love the plugin, but have a couple of questions. Before I found out about this I installed Extrafanart. I'm guessing I should remove that one and get rid of all the folders it created in my movie folder correct?

The other issue is how to use it? I have it installed and I have about 120 movies and a few tv shows. The skin I'm using has views for Logos, Clearart, Banners and etc. How do I setup the program and use it to bulk scrape all the media I need? With the extra fanart I had to go into each tv show and movie and manually do it which took hours.

I'm sure there was an easier way to do it, but couldn't figure it out. Any help in getting this plugin setup and running properly would be awesome. Thanks

Josh

Correct.

Best grab the latest from the download section.
Because there were some changes in the filename on the TMDB site remove all the 'extrafanart' folders. Extrathumbs can stay if you have them.

Same as Extrafanart...
Just run it from the programs section in xbmc by selecting it and hit ENTER Wink

Hmmmm...I tried that, but I'll make sure I do have the latest and test it again. I'll report back. Thanks for the quick reply. Great work on this plugin though. thanks

Hi Martijn -

Any word on when season posters/banners will be re-enabled in the functionality?

Thanks,
Dave

Martijn, having some issuess with AD. it stopped collecting any art for last 2 days or so and started giving an error..script failed. I uninstalled it and have tried to reinstall the latest (1.04 RC2) but each time after installation its the same version 1.03 again ( the old Version without the time delay option ). I am currently at work and will post the log later. Any idea?
