I'm seeing 2.0.4~beta2 in my listing of the beta repo. Try updating the repo (highlight the repo, bring up the context menu, select update).

If you install directly from the zip downloaded from my GitHub repo, you are going to cause yourself a world of hurt later, as you'll probably end up with two versions of AS in your Kodi install. Seriously, the wiki page has a section on beta testing with a link right to my beta repo. Download that zip, install it, and then install AS from that repo. You are making this WAY harder than it has to be.
RE: [RELEASE] Artist Slideshow 1.3.0 addon (with skin and addon integration) - KevinSartori - 2016-12-25
Hello Kyle,
I'm having an issue where local files don't show up in Artist Slideshow. I'm using the latest 2.0.4~beta2 with Kodi 16.1 and Windows 8.1 x64.
For Image Priority, I have Use Both Local and Remote Images selected. I deleted the artistinformation and artistslideshow folders in addon_data. Then I enabled logging in Artist Slideshow and Kodi and restarted.
First I played bôa, which have no images on Fanart.tv, but have an artist image and a fanart image on TheAudioDB.com. I also have a local folder.jpg and fanart.jpg for the artist that is different than the two hosted on the TheAudioDB.com. I let the music play for 1 minute, but only see the fanart image from TheAudioDB.com. I don't see the artist image from TheAudioDB.com or either of the local images.
Next I play a Clockhammer track. Clockhammer has no images available on Fanart.tv or TheAudioDB.com, but I do have a local folder.jpg and fanart.jpg for the artist. I let the music play for 1 minute, but don't see any images whatsoever.
My MP3 files are tagged with Musicbrainz artist and album tags and my folder structure is Artist/(Year) Album.
https://paste.ee/p/dKcez
I recall this feature working previously, but I'm not sure how long ago that was. Also, when it did work, I remember it displaying local fanart.jpg files, but I'm not sure if it ever displayed local folder.jpg artist files.
Thanks!

Thanks a lot for the quick implementation of the MBID extraction. It seems to work but it seems to stop for certain artists. Please have a look at the log file.
I have played two files: 1. Michael Bubble 2. Mumford and Sons.
It stopped at "Mumford and sons".

All images to be shown by AS must be in <artist name>/extrafanart. AS won't show anything not in that folder. Given you mentioned folder.jpg and fanart.jpg (which are most often in the root of the artist folder), I wonder if that's the issue.

AS writes its log information to the main Kodi log.
Where do I post the log file? Or do I simply paste it in a reply?

OK, I think I fixed the crash (I have no easy way to test for the particular condition here). I've pushed the change to the repo as 2.0.4~beta3.
You might still not see images for Mumford and Sons. For some reason the name of the group is being reported as "Mumford " which I think is what caused the crash. So AS won't crash anymore, but you still might not get any images.
edit: Had incorrectly listed this as beta4 when it is, in fact, beta3

Please DO NOT paste the log in a reply. See the link in my signature for how to post a debug log.

I have difficulties to get 2.0.4 beta 4 - I only can get B3 direct download from github. Using the beta repository does not work - it shows me still something 1.7.xx
For B3 it works quite well so far. From time to time it seems not to be stable - but I think I have to get b4 before further testing. When switching songs manually information are loaded and displayed correctly - when next song is played automatically no information are loaded and displayed.
Finally this script is really value-adding to my media Center . This because of your hard work and the databases Audiodb, Musicbrainz and Fanart.tv. A good reason for me for a donation to all of them.

Thanks, I did install the repo.
It looks like everything is oke.
Thanks again. NoNo

That's my bad. Beta3 is the current one. As for the beta repo, I think you might still have the Gotham version installed. Here's the link to the Helix+ version:
https://github.com/pkscout/repository.beta.pkscout/blob/helix/repository.beta.pkscout-1.1.0.zip
If you're getting crashes, I'd definitely like to see logs for those. If it's just artists with no images, the reality is that getting images for streaming services is very hit or miss because there's no standard as to where the name of the artist will be. AS makes a stab at it by assuming a stream will separate the artist and song title using a dash (which most do). I don't stream music myself, so it's gonna be hard to build any more logic than that into it.

That log shows only that Artist Slideshow has been installed. There is no indication that it is ever activated. You have to playing music, have your skin on the music visualization screen, and have a skin that supports AS.
