FanArt problem with newer builds?
#1
I'm using 17708 on a Mac.
I'm having trouble with FanArt with this build.

It seems that XBMC thinks poster.jpg (that I have in all my movie folders) = FanArt, for some reason?

So when scraping (tried both IMDB and TMDb), instead of downloading FanArt, it takes poster.jpg (located in all my movie folders) and uses that as FanArt. The result is a pretty stretched out poster image used as FanArt Sad

Anyone else with this issue?

Did some more digging..

It seems it takes whatever *.jpg is in the movie folder and uses it as FanArt. The ONLY time it successfully managed to download the movies FanArt is when the movie folder doesn't contain any *.jpg files at all.

I did a test with only 4 movies to try to narrow it down:

2 Days In Paris - Doesn't have any *.jpg in folder
3.10 to Yuma - Have a poster.jpg in folder
16 Blocks - Have a folder.jpg in folder
21 - Have a cover.jpg in folder

This is what happens while scraping:

2 Days In Paris

SUCCESS! FanArt was downloaded.

NOPE! Uses poster.jpg as FanArt instead.

It's fixed in r17743. Our code review process has so far failed twice in these 6 lines of code :p

Cheers,
