Hello everyone, I can't really understand what happens when you activate Fanart.tv illustrations.
Does this replace TMDB on all illustrations? Does it complete TMDB when illustrations are missing in our language?
And I understand even less what happens when you activate Fanart.tv and check "Give priority to Fanart.TV artwork over language".

Thank you Kerellen, but frankly I no understand what is happening precisely in terms of order and hierarchy, or anything. (I don't know if it's possible, but I would like to favor TMDB for all illustrations, and look for Fanart.TV only if there are no illustrations in my diaper on TMDB.)
For exemple,
"Prioritize fanart.tv artworks over preferred languageIf an artwork type is not available in your chosen language, then:Enabling this setting downloads the artwork in the first available language.Disabling this setting will not download any artwork for that particular artwork type."
I don't understand if it doesn't download anything, or if it falls back to TMDB? It's not clear at all.

After several tests, if I understand correctly, if we activate Fanart.TV, then it will search for Fanart.TV as a priority, unless obviously there is the language searched on TMDB and not on Fanart. Too bad, I would have preferred that priority was given to TMDB, and that Fanart was the fallback only in case there was the language sought on Fanart.TV and not on TMDB.
Is there a way to reverse this priority? :/ I'm a TMDB content creator, and it's true that I would like it to take priority, although I recognize the wealth of Fanart.TV which is useful for complete. Where can I make such a request?
As for the option "Give priority to fanart.tv works rather than the preferred language", it further forces priority on Fanart TV, completely bypassing TMDB, even when there is French on TMDB and not on Fanart.TV.
