This was on Windows, 9.11.

I tried the plugin (thanks for the hint Smile

) but I always get a download error.
I don't know why this happens. Maybe because I try to use it on the old XBox?
I'm connected to the internet and the RSS-feeds also work...

I also wanted to know why the pictures are named artist-album.png when all the skins which support this function use the name cdart.png? Also I think the short name is much better since the old XBox doesn't support long filenames and special characters in filenames, which I'll get with some names of bands and albums. I think this should be more consistent.

Anyway, thanks for the plugin. As soon as this works it'll safe a lot of time.
Also I now have a list of albums which are not already on xbmcstuff.com which makes it a lot easier to look for pictures to contribute.

Keep it up. I'm looking forward to the next release!

it will works, I'm just waiting for people to post their error log to continue...

"it's not working" won't help me much Big Grin

Anything specific you need us to look at or test?

ppic · 2010-02-02 21:45

no, just try it and send me log when you've got an error, since i've posted it, i've only got one log.

Any chance of getting a feature that downloads all available cdart into one single directory so I can use it with Rapier Qualar Mod? I could hack it in myself, but to be honest I can't be bothered right now Tongue

ppic · 2010-02-08 21:21

planned, but based on artist / ablum recognition, so there will always be some errors

mots · 2010-02-08 21:22

Yeah sure, but it still beats having to go through the site manually Wink

Any news on that?
