RE: [RELEASE] Artist Slideshow 1.3.0 addon (with skin and addon integration) - tscholl - 2017-12-29

Here are the logs one with Use Local Storage Checked, and one with it not checked.

In both cases it creates about 35 out of the origional 122 entries before it stops.

Quick update, I had never set a path for a local for a local folder so I'm sure that the reason I get a error message when I checked "Use Local Storage"
Under script.artistslideshow AS creates folders ArtistSlideshow and ArtistInformation. So I would expect that if don't specify a Local storage location, the update should replace all of the current hashed folders with the names of the Artist. That being said. I ran it in debug mode without the use Local Storage checked. It looks like it completes however I only end up with 39 of the original 131 entries in the ArtistSlideShow folder.
here is a link to the log file - https://www.dropbox.com/s/ne0ug6td9ys6lz3/AS_Udate.log?dl=0
I also use artist slideshow helper and have attached a copy of it's output here - https://www.dropbox.com/s/ndglwobm0vaogwl/as_hashlist.txt?dl=0
Hope this helps ...

Just for kicks I created a user created folder "ArtistSlideshow2" and told it to use that folder. It only put 9 Artist names in that folder and created an error. The last artist in that folder was the one that it failed on.
Here's that log. - https://www.dropbox.com/s/i0gqn9lg92yelg2/AS_with_Folder_set.txt?dl=0
Artistname with special characters - hoschilo - 2017-12-30
Pkscout,
I'm having issues (supposed) with Tracks with Artistnames containing "special characters". Thank you for your support

To everyone having the problem with crashes with artists who have special characters in their name, 2.1.0~alpha3 is available at:
https://github.com/pkscout/script.artistslideshow/releases
BTW, on my Raspberry Pi the upgrade took over 20 minutes, so I think I might have to add a non-modal dialog box (i.e. something that let's you keep working) just for status.

The good news is that your crash was in a different place this time. Hopefully that's the last of the UTF8 issues. '-)

Still stopping with error here as well.

First of all: Happy new year to Pkscout and everybody using his excellent work/addons.
Still I'm having problems with Herbie Hancocks's "Imagine" containing many featured artists with "special characters". Apart from that some more observations:
- Leia's latest nightly not working anymore for me but not related to Artist Slideshow (change/switch songs on the fly will let artistfield empty, only stopping and starting the song will update the labels.
- Despite I have stored al fanart on my NAS - Artistinformation are still located in my profile folder. This is not really bothering me but it would be nice to have all information in one place, especially if you are forced to do a clean install due to whatever reason
- I also noticed in the log file that the Programm always reports that it does not find artwork on a specific artist folder, despite the fact that it already exist (i.e. smb://DISKSTATION/photo/kodifanart/India.Arie\extrafanart does not exist, creating it)
- For the song Space Captain of Herbie with two featured artists (Susan Tedeschi and Derek Trucks) AS builds three folders apart from already existing Herbie Hancock;: Susan Tedeschi / Derek Trucks / Susan Tedeschi and Dereck Trucks. The first two folder containing one artist picture each in the last folder none is available - I wonder whether this really makes sense to have this "combination folders". By the way AS does only show Herbies Artwork for this song but I have tried other Songs with featured artists where it seems to work correctly - I guess this addon does not like Herbie's music ;-)
- A cosmetic issue is that that the folder are named firstname-name whereas the Artworks are names name-firstname-XXXXX.XXX. I don't have any problem with that
- What does "fuzzy search" exactly do?

This is not really bothering me but it would be nice to have all information in one place, especially if you are forced to do a clean install due to whatever reasonI thought about doing that, but I'm hesitant to clutter up those directories with more stuff. A lot of folks having their music and fanart in one directory structure and have been resistant to having more stuff stored there. All the stuff in the Artist Information Folder is downloaded, so if you ever do a clean install, AS will download that stuff again. And since the images would all still be in your other directory, they wouldn't have to be downloaded again.

I went though and tried to find all those, but it's not a huge deal, as when AS tries to create the directory it fails because it already exists.

By the way AS does only show Herbies Artwork for this song but I have tried other Songs with featured artists where it seems to work correctly - I guess this addon does not like Herbie's music ;-)In the case of Space Captain Kodi reports that there are three artists in the meta data: Herbie Hancock, Susan Tedeschi, and Derek Trucks. There is also a featured artist in the title, "Susan Tedeschi & Derek Trucks." So AS parses that and adds that artist exactly as entered, as AS only splits featured artists in the title when they are separated by ' / ' (that's space slash space). That's why you get that last folder. And since neither fanart.tv or theaudiodb will find an artist named 'Susan Tedeschi & Derek Trucks' you get an empty directory.
As for the featured artists not showing, there is an error in the log about a file that couldn't be deleted in the merge directory. Could you check and see if user_data/addon_data/script.artistslideshow/merge is empty? If not, delete the merge directory and let AS recreated a new one. Maybe that will help.
Quote:A cosmetic issue is that that the folder are named firstname-name whereas the Artworks are names name-firstname-XXXXX.XXX. I don't have any problem with thatFolders are named based on the data provided by Kodi which is always going to be first name last name. The image names are the names that the various services use, so one of the services uses lastname-firstname-xxxx for it's naming convention.
Quote:What does "fuzzy search" exactly do?That let's an artist with a "bad" character in their name (like AC/DC) match on the OS safe name (i.e. AC_DC).
