Hello,
I've installed XBMC yesterday on my Apple TV 2 after a friend presented it to me when I was at his house. One of the main features that I found amazing is that it would download pics and info about music, movies and TV shows and display it in a very cool way.
However, I'm trying to make it work for hours and I can't seem to understand what's missing. The wiki is not very clear (it says I have to "enable it on the Skin menu under Settings"), but every option out there seems to be enabled but absolutely no fanart is downloaded. Tried searching the forum but it seems that every question out there is in regard to "pics were downloaded before and they are missing after update", "fanart not working when X", nothing seems to apply to my case.
All of my media is on a Windows network share and it's being recognized normally. I have AllMusic, TheTVDB, TheMovieDB add-ons enabled, I'm using Confluence skin and "Hide background fanart" is turned off, I'm using the Library view on "Music" (Videos doesn't seem to have a library option), what else do I have to do to make it work?
The only pics that are displayed are the covers for CDs but this info is inside the MP3 itself, it's not getting from the internet.
Sorry if I'm missing something really obvious.
Thanks everybody.
