I have a massive media collection that consists of many thousands of movies. There are lots of movie sets in this collection. I have a tendency to meticulously groom the collection, kind of an OCD thing, so that it's as close to perfect as I can get it to the point of sometimes making custom covers because the ones I can find just aren't good enough. I make sure every movie has the right poster fanart and synopsis. Likewise, I do the same for all my movie sets. I export my DB as individual files so if a new XBMC device is added to the network, it will scrape the local NFOs and artwork and everything will be just how I want it.
Is there a way to force XBMC to scrape my meticulously chosen set covers and fanart if a new device is introduced or a device must be reset? If they don't exist already, can tags be introduced in the NFOs that specify set fanart and thumbs?
Here is a picture of my folder structure:
Each movie in the set is stored in its own folder within the folder for the set. Set.jpeg, and set-fanart.jpg are the images I have specifically chosen for that set and are stored in the root of the set folder
