Hello,

How do I update artwork that is streamed from a DLNA server to KODI on my Android Box (KODI here as DLNA Client). I have some changes on the artwork for movies and they are updated on the server. But there is no way to update that new artwok on KODI ? KODI keeps the first time cached artwork for that file.

The only possibilty I found is to delete the file from the server, wait for the update and than copy it again to the server and than stream it to KODI. Than there is the new artwork. Is there maybe an addon to shorten this and update the artwork on KODI (Android) ?

Thx for Help

What DLNA server are you running ?  I author the Mezzmo Kodi Addon which is a Kodi DLNA addon and works with other DLNA servers.  What you need is something which will manage the textures database, which controls Kodi caching.  The Mezzmo Kodi addon does this by default but this feature currently is only available with Mezzmo DLNA servers and not other ones.  I could consider adding it for other DLNA servers or you could look into an addon which manages the Kodi textures database.  Another, brute force,  option is to manually delete your Kodi thumbnails folder content.


Thanks,
