Ajedi Wrote:Frist off, i love this addon thanks for creating it.
But i have a question. Will you implement a feature that will check your libaries for new movies and tv-shows on every startup of xbmc?
Now whenever i add a movie i have to manually run artwork downloader to get the 4 thumbs (im using the 4 thumbs view in Aeon MQ3).
If this is alreay possible could you tell me how to enable it? I cant find it in the settings.
thanks
running on Win7 pre-eden.
Not planning on it at the time. Still to much other things to do. There are other way you can let it run at startup like autoexec.py however you will need to make this yourself.
won't be long now - Martijn - 2011-11-22
Just testing out some more things to make it is XBMC-repo ready.
A fairly finished version can be found in the download section on Github.
Only for the foolish and impatient ones that like help us testing
Find any bugs? Read the first post on how to report these.
Message to skinners:
Please let me know if I used the wrong file names for the images.

Thanks for this script. I'll be inserting it as a required script into my skin as soon as you release a repo version.
One request if possible. I'd like the script to be able to return the users choice of central artwork directories when requested. Then I'd not have to have a setting asking for the same directory in my skin.

Let me guess why you want this feature...
You think about the thread yesterday with the movie-fanart as backdrop?
cheers,

Well you're not the only one. BigNoid asked a simulair thing
The central Artwork folder is best only used for a fanart slideshow.
I wanted to create a true centralized artwork option however current skin labels don't allow that kind of feature.

Maybe in a future version. First we want evrything working as planned.

Ah ok well i can understand dw about it. Since im clueless about programming and thought you were talking chinese when you said "autoexe.py" ill just do it manually. (but if you ever have time it would be awsome to have it implemented)
thanks again and keep up the good work!

Will see if can make a service addon for this tonight. You only need to install a zip file and it will run at startup/login.

Fair enough. Although I did want the directory as the source for my $INFOSkin.String(Home_Custom_Back_Movies_Folder) as at present I've just used "special://masterprofile/Thumbnails/Video/Fanart/" which is not the greatest idea.

You can create an extra button so the user can select it's own custom folder.

Yep, working on it now, was just trying to cut down on places for users to set file paths.

You can take my basis for the service addon...made one for executing watchlist at start/login
see here:
http://code.google.com/p/repository-xbmcnerds/source/browse/branches/eden-pre/script.watchlist.service/script.watchlist.service-0.1.zip
basically you only need to change addonid in the main.py

Thanks. Already found the example on wiki. Will first test it myself tonight.

If there's a way I will definitely add it (if I know how)

For the ones interested I have made a service plug-in so when XBMC start this will also automaticly start Artwork Downloader using the normal settings.
The service .zip file can be downloaded here
