I am using the Neon skin and added a .jpg called fanart.jpg to the artist folder, but the fanart does not display. What do I need to do to make it visible?

Thanks for the help

bring up info on the artist and then select get fanart, then choose local fanart from the list that appears.

XBMC uses the fanart cached in the thumbnail directory. If you already have some fanart cached there it will not pick up any changes to fanart.jpg or new fanart.jpg until you tell it to do so.

Thanks for the response. The problem is when I bring up the artist info "get fanart" is not clickable, it is just red in color. Does the neon skin not support music fan art or something?

Has this been solved? I don't have Neon, but I can't select "get fanart" for my music as well in Confluence or Xperience 1080. I have tried with both Musicbrainz and Last.Fm as scrapers. Any ideas?

Have you tried the cdArt manager?

Install the new "Universal"scrapers for both artists and albums. You do need to refresh the album/artist to get new data.
Update library won't update your current info.

Or try like Kode suggested. Most skin support it

Just tried cdArt Manager and Universal scraper. Same result- the "get fanart" button is grayed out and I cannot select it. I see cdArt downloaded fanart in the the designated path I put for "Path to Music library," but that's it. Any other ideas why this is happening?

Forgot to mention, when I refresh the album/artist, it only lets me select thumbs if it finds anything.

Probably it's something to do with your folder structure. XBMC sees your artists as albums.

Folder structure MUST be:

Code:

-- music source
    -- Artist 1
       --Album 1
    -- Artist 2
