Another faulty ID somewhere. Sorry.

So far no problems that aren't my fault Laugh

It only takes some time to run through all of my movies....
Maybe add a maximum number of fanart to download if that a good idea and others want that to ofcourse.

Thanks for letting me know, I was trying to figure out what could've gone wrong and just couldn't figure it out lol.

Not a bad idea, I've added it to the issues list in github so that I don't forget about it.

The script has now been added to the official repo for eden-pre so anyone who wants can now install and keep up to date that way Big Grin

putneyj has also joined me in developing the script, thanks Smile

Expect many improvements soon (dharma support, solo mode)

Excellent

Will the Dharma version become a branch of the Eden version on github or stay with putneyj?
Will help you where I can.

I've added a dharma download link to the first post, I'd really appreciate it if people using Dharma could help us out with testing so that we can submit it to the official repo.

Dharma: https://github.com/paddycarey/script.ext...all/dharma

Update:
Well for the time being the Dharma version still needs some work before hitting the official xbmc-repo. The ones who would like to test it check the first post.

The Eden version is allready available from the official xbmc-repo. It can be found under Programs. It features bulk mode which downloads all extrafanart for Movie & TV Show.
The next version features "solo" mode. It means that skins can use it in their menu's/info windows.
It's already integrated in Aeon Nox (Eden), it just needs the new Extrafanart Downloader verison. Download link is in first post. It's located in the 'I' (info) window for Movies/TV Shows.

Skinners:
The code for how to integrate is located in the readme file.

Yeah sorry about that. We are trying to fix that however SMB:// support in Dharma 10.1 is horrible. The guys who coded it tried te support it but so far not yet succeeded. The code cannot create the "extrafanart" folder becauses it's on a smb://
All other sharing and local drives should work fine. Only smb:// has this problem.
If you create the folders manually (yeah i know it's a lot of work) and after you run the script it does work.
in pre-Eden we don't have this problem.

Yeah, this is a known limitation of the dharma version of the script at the moment, it's quite simple to work around though if you want. You just need to create the extrafanart dir manually and then the script should run fine.

I realise you may have lots of tv shows and movies so it'd probably be quicker to run a small (external) script to create the directories for you.

I don't really know windows, but if your server runs linux you could do this in a terminal:

Code:
cd "PATHTOTVSOURCE"; ls -1 | while read x; do mkdir "$x/extrafanart"; done

I'm sure you could run something similiar on windows.

paddycarey · 2011-10-10, 04:13

putneyj has just added centralised fanart directory support. With this setting turned on the script will now copy all your extrafanart to specified directories for each media type (film, tv, music etc.) which can then be used as multi image backdrops in skins which support it Smile

We would really appreciate anyone who'd like to help us translate our dialogs. If you'd like to help out you can send me a pull request on github or just post the modified strings.xml file somewhere i can get it, i don't mind where.

**Martijn** · 2011-10-11, 12:11

Version update:
New stable build version 0.3.7 (pre-eden) should be available now from the official XBMC-repo.

Message to skinners:
This could be used for for integration to download extrafanart per title. For more info there are some examples included.

Aeon Nox (pre-eden) has already built-in support. Thanks Big Noid Big Grin

Hi all, I was very excited when finding out about this new add-on. I re-organised my whole collection to accommodate it. Unfortunately it doesnt fully complete on either movies or TV. I get the error

Extrafanart Downloader
Add-on aborted
Network error detected

Here is the log for me trying to do my TV shows

LOG

I can provide one for movies too if needed. I hope it can be solved. Great plugin by the way!! Nod

I see you are using the version from github (version 0.3.8). We're stil working on that so there could be errors. Maybe try the latest from github (current version 0.3.9) and let us know if there are still errors.

There should be a working version in the official xbmc-repo (version 0.3.7).

Thanks for the reply. I'll let you know how I get on ...fingers crossed Laugh

The version on the official repo is working great so far. Its gone past the point in TV shows where it was stuck before. Its going to take a while to complete I have around 300 TV shows and 5000 Movies.
