Does this addon download artwork locally like Artwork Dump or does it work like Artwork Beef? I'm kinda looking for an Artwork Beef replacement. If I have to download the artwork locally then I'll probably just use the scrapers to insert the artwork without having to download the artwork into my actual folders and files locally.

I am using 19.0.3 version of Artwork Downloader and want to report a small issue. I just recently added Alien³ to my collection (from 6 disc set) and it seems that the script does not like the "³" in the directory names. When I ran the script in 'solo' mode to download the artwork it seemed to be doing the right thing and reported 8 files downloaded, but in reality it wiped out the default artwork and there were no jpg or png files in the Alien³ movie dirs (one dir for theatrical cut and one die for assembly cut). To ensure that it wasn't a wider problem with the script, I wiped out the art from another recently archived movie and redownloaded successfully, so then I renamed the Alien³ directories from Alien³ to Alien3 and then the eight artwork files were successfully downloaded and stored in the Alien3 directories. It's no big deal, really, as I don't mind the directories being named Alien3 rather than the formal Alien³, I just wanted to let you know. Thanks very much for this great add-on.

Thanks for developing this! I am still on Kodi 16, Aeon Madnox with old and still working AD + AD mpdb version + Artwork Beef, on an old well working MacMini.
I never updated configuration because nowadays developper don't seem interested anymore in fanarts, newer versions of everything keep dropping fanarts functions, and I cross my fingers, until today my setup still download fanarts, logos, etc...
Will your new AD download extrathumbs / extrafanarts like the old one? And if yes, are they stored in a folder like in the past, or rathr scattered in the root movie folder as requested by the new Kodi guideline?
