Fanart as backgrounds? - peeet - 2018-03-06

I've gone into the settings and enabled "Use Fanart as Backgrounds", but I still get the default backgrounds when highlighting the main shelves - Movies and TV Shows. I want those backgrounds to be random fanart, and that seems to be what the setting says it'll do, but still I get the defaults.

Am I doing something wrong? To get non-default backgrounds, do I have to add them manually?

"Use Fanart as Backgrounds" is for the libraries, I think.

If you want fanart on the home menu you need to put them in a folder and under 'home layout' in the skin settings choose 'multi' and point to that folder.

I could be wrong though, it's been a while.
