Possibly.  Once kodi has cached some art, it won't update the cache for 24 hours.  On the other hand, preferring online to local art I imagine is something to do with the skin.helper.service but you probably need someone more experienced in skinning than me to say for definite.

Code:
<control type="image">                    
                    <left>50</left>
                    <top>-80</top>
                    <width>632</width>
                    <height>450</height>
                    <aspectratio align="center" aligny="center">keep</aspectratio>
                    <texture diffuse="cdart_diffuse.png" background="true">$VAR[media_discart]</texture>
                    <include>animation_cdart</include>
                    <visible>String.IsEqual(skin.string(visdiscart),always) | [String.IsEqual(skin.string(visdiscart),ifavailable) + !String.IsEmpty(Player.Art(discart))]
                | [String.IsEqual(skin.string(visdiscart),ifavailable) + !String.IsEmpty(Window(home).Property(SkinHelper.Player.Art.DiscArt))]</visible>
                </control>

From the last line I've edited out code to seek discart from the web:
Code:
| [String.IsEqual(skin.string(visdiscart),ifavailable) + !String.IsEmpty(Player.Art(discart))]
, leaving:
Code:
<control type="image">                    
                    <left>50</left>
                    <top>-80</top>
                    <width>632</width>
                    <height>450</height>
                    <aspectratio align="center" aligny="center">keep</aspectratio>
                    <texture diffuse="cdart_diffuse.png" background="true">$VAR[media_discart]</texture>
                    <include>animation_cdart</include>
                    <visible>String.IsEqual(skin.string(visdiscart),always) | [String.IsEqual(skin.string(visdiscart),ifavailable) + !String.IsEmpty(Window(home).Property(SkinHelper.Player.Art.DiscArt))]</visible>
                </control>

Now I display discart in Music Fullscreen only if I have it in my album folder.  Perhaps I'm missing a setting to do this already?  I recall a setting, somewhere in the maze of Kodi, Skin and Addon settings, the ability to favor online vs local artwork?  Could not find it yesterday. 
mm, not work for me...Sad .
it´s a shame.

Sorry @defleppard, I think I spoke too soon.  I thought it was working as I'd like (and you as well), but wound up reverting back to the original code.

Don´t worry man.
My only problem is with compilations and bootlegs (not commercial albums), I keep trying

I don't know why you would be having problems with your own disks. I have created hundreds of my own discart (all uploaded to fanart.tv) and they scan in no problems.

Try switching skins and see if discart works with another skin.

RE: Disc Art - defleppard - 2020-03-03

Hi @Karellen . Thanx for your reply.
the answer is YES... in Aonmq7 mod and in Ace2, discart works perfect..
Last week I did a zero installation (kodi and skin and mod) and the result is always the same. commercial records yes, rest not. I even have artworkbeef set up so that in my music library I can take local files (fanart, extrafanart, discart, etc)..

RE: Disc Art - Karellen - 2020-03-03

Ok, so it is a skin issue. So @Wanilton will need to advise.

by latts9923? Then you better ask in his thread as he rarely ventures out and responds in other threads.

RE: Disc Art - latts9923 - 2020-03-03

Haha...you're right @Karellen. I spend the little free time I have responding to my threads, so I rarely post in other ones.

While using the Aeon MQ 7 Leia Mod or the Aeon MQ 8 Multi-Mod, if I open the context menu from an album and select ARTWORK OPTIONS > Manual configure artwork, it will first open a page showing artwork options for thumb, fanart, etc. If I back out of that page, I then see a second page where I can select discart. This allows me to either browse for local discart or choose discart that has been scraped from online sources. As @black_eagle stated, it takes some time for the discart to change in the Music library view, but in Music Viz it should instantly change if the style you selected is using Skin Helper Service (style3d uses SkinHelper.Player.Art.DiscArt) to display the discart.
