RE: [RELEASE] Artist Slideshow 1.3.0 addon (with skin and addon integration) - KevinSartori - 2016-12-30

- fix for artist name separation leaving extra spaces
- added option to use local fanart and folder image outside extrafanart folder (enable in settings)
Thanks for adding the option to use local fanart.jpg and folder.jpg. Works fantastic!

I just installed this addon and turned off visualization but now the picture goes dark after several songs. How do I fix this.
Thanks

Without more information, it's hard to say. The first thing to realize is that not every artist necessarily has images, so a blank screen may just mean an artist didn't have any images. I'd encourage you to review the wiki page (link in my signature) to see what various settings do. If you're having problems with a specific artist, then you need to post a debug log (information on that in my sig) that has both Kodi AND AS debug logging on (the debug log setting for AS is in the advanced settings).

Thanks for the reply, I finally figured it out, I just had to disable the screensaver. It took me a while to locate it.
This is a neat addon but I'm sure I'll have more questions as I start playing with it.

Hello Kyle,
I discovered a side effect of the new "local files" option. "extrafanart" folders are being created in my Artist folders. I think this might be intentional on your part, but I thought you had found a way around having to do this.
I also noticed that Artist folders are now being created (each containing their own "extrafanart" folder) for secondary artists and artists that appear on compilations. In time, this could really clutter up a user's music directory structure!

The extrafanart folder is intentional. Creating the artist folder wasn't Just pushed new beta that should fix that.

I'm releasing 2.0.5~beta2 today to fix a problem I found with the new logic I was using to detect when the artist changed. While the new logic was more efficient in terms of calls to Kodi, it has the disadvantage of being less reliable. I'm finding about 20% of the time it doesn't detect the artist change, and you're stuck with the slideshow for the previous artist. So I've reverted to the old logic.

I have installed your new beta it works well but have noticed if it does not find the artist it will

I am unable to duplicate this issue based on your description. I will need a full Kodi debug log that also has the Artist Slideshow debugging enabled (it's in the advanced area of the AS settings). If you're not familiar with debug logs, please see the link in my signature.

Thanks. Looks like when I reverted the code for the old logic I reverted one step too far and picked up an old bug. It's been fixed and a new beta (2.0.6~beta1) has been released on my beta repo. Please confirm for me that this fixes your issue.

Fixed. That was caused by some additional logging I added when trying to troubleshoot the artist change problem. The crash probably only happened with artists that have extended characters in their name. 2.0.6~beta2 is in the repo now.

I think the beta repo points towards "gotham" branch - so no updates by this channel for me..or do I miss something?

Please check the wiki page for AS. There are two versions of the beta repo, one for Gotham and one for for Helix onward. I use my beta repo on my main HTPC. I just checked, and it downloaded AS 2.0.6~beta2 last night. If you have the right repo, you might try manually checking for updates. I think Kodi only checks repos every day or so for updates automatically.
