Because of some previous experience and the WAF I want to stick with the official Kodi skin.  

How do I get the artwork to work?  

Thanks

Sorry, I should have been more clear. The stock Estuary doesn't support display of artist information while music is playing (which you have discovered). If you've gone into the AS settings and turned on the download for at least one music artwork source, AS should display artwork in the background when ever you bring up the full screen music without having to do anything else.

BTW, if the artist information while playing music is really important, you might at least take a look at my Estuary mod. It's like 99% stock Estuary with some more flexibility on how the main menu is ordered (and the extra AS stuff). You could probably swap it in and not really notice at all that you had changed it.

I've installed your Estuary mod and have been using it for a couple of weeks now (Thanks!).  One thing I've discovered is there is no longer a TV submenu for Channel Groups.  I went to Skin settings>Catagories but there only 2 options for TV submenus, and neither one can be changed to Channel Groups.  

Am I missing something?

No, I suspect I missed that. The channel groups submenu is either new for Matrix and I missed it during the transition or it was in Leia too and I missed it there as well.  I'll have to look into it.  I'll try and make some time this weekend.

Did you ever get a chance to look into this?

Sorry, no. Not yet.  It is on my list, I just can't commit to when I'm going to have time to look at it.

I could've sworn I had fixed that.  AS still creates the folder, but if it's empty at the end I'm pretty sure it deletes it (or is suppose to). If you can tell me an artist where you are seeing that, I can do some checking here on my end.

Strange.  If I set the destination of the AIF on my NAS, then AS does not delete empty folders after they are created.

I'd need to see a full debug log, but that potentially points to either a permissions issue or maybe an issue with Kodi's virtual file system (which is the thing that interfaces between Kodi and the actual mounts).

Strange.  I tried it on my Win10 PC and it worked normally.  It just has problems on my RPi 3B+.

Here is the log.

Does the delay between slide transitions setting not allow you to do that?
