Changing fanart issue
#1
Hello guys,
with the recent update of Eden 11.0, I encountered a tiny problem. When selecting a different fanart, XBMC still shows the previous one. To see the new one I have to a) restart XBMC b) set to none the fanart and then choose another one.

Here's a short video:



How can I solve this? Huh

Have you set the skin to use 'poster.jpg' ?

Everything is working as it should.... XBMC has all the thumbs and backdrops in it's own library. When you add new fanart or thumbs to the movie folder you need to refresh locally to add it to your library. Because the images are in a local memory cache... they have to be flushed (e.g. that's what your restart does), if you do nothing they will show up sooner or later when the memory cache has to be renewed.

Sorry, but it doesn't sounds correct. If I change the fanart background, I'm supposed to see the change happening, not until a reset. Huh Plus, I remember it working correctly when Eden was in the RC phase.

your right aur0n...idk...maybe you should try re-installing xbmc? I have never had your problem myself

PS, you should re-download the program from the website, just to make sure it wasnt a bad download

I am having the same problem. It has always worked flawlessly but now I have to restart Xbmc in order to see my fanart changes. Coverart changes instant when a new picture is downloaded.

I am running eden in win8
