Limiting artwork by rating doesn't seem to be working. I've been watching for about a week now and artwork that is rated below five starts (my current thresh hold) is still being downloaded. Even if I clear my artwork and let it redownload everything. I have even tried installing XBMC with Artwork Downloader on another mac just to make sure it wasn't something being cashed that was messing things up. Here are a couple of examples of artwork that are downloading that shouldn't be with the default setting...

Uhm slight typo in code
Will be fixed in next update. Instead of the average it uses the number of votes.
Thanks for noticing

This the date from TVDBD and as you can see this image has no rating in his API respons.

PHP Code:

<Banner><id>514361</id>
<BannerPath>fanart/original/78956-14.jpg</BannerPath>
<BannerType>fanart</BannerType><BannerType2>1280x720</BannerType2>

<ThumbnailPath>_cache/fanart/original/78956-14.jpg</ThumbnailPath>
<VignettePath>fanart/vignette/78956-14.jpg</VignettePath>
</Banner> 


I know it takes more than three days for ratings and info to get through for TMDB. Don 't know how long it takes for TVDB.

Glad I could help! Thanks for looking into it so quickly. I am noticing in the example you have above that thetvdb.com API return is giving a "0" return for RatingCount and "" for Rating. It doesn't seem that artwork should have been downloaded even with the average being used instead of the number of votes. Does there need to be a check for 0 and nil so that unrated fanart isn't downloaded? This may already be fixed. Now that AD is checking the API for Rating return, getting a false return may properly exclude the fanart, whereas the RatingCount returning a 0 is what was throwing things off.

I also have a question about the "Exclude fanart that has text" option. I love the idea of it, and I had assumed I would be able to go to the themoviedb.org and toggle an indicator so that Artwork Downloader could pull that detail from the API. That doesn't seem to be an option though. I know I'm getting plenty of artwork that has text in the jpeg. Is that option actually doing anything or am I misunderstanding its objective?

[Martijn]

When it has 0 votes we do download it. If we chose to ignore it a lot would not download. This way we force the users to take actively part in the process of getting images rated.

The exclude text option isn't available on TMDB. They just started the support for ratings last week in their API. The language wasn't only has been available since a month. So maybe one day it may be posible. However that would mean all fanart has to be tagged with text/no text.

Ah, I see. Sounds good to me.

Do any sites support the exclude text option right now, or is this just a way to get people thinking about what is possible?

TVDB does.

When I upgraded to Eden B2 I started using the media stub (i.e. movie.dvd.disc) to get my physical movie collection into XBMC. I noticed that unless I have a movie.nfo file for a movie, no extra art is downloaded. Is that perhaps because it's looking at the file name minus the extension and seeing movie.dvd (i.e. A Bug's Life.dvd.disc is seen as A Bug's Life.dvd which isn't a movie it can find).

I can go ahead and add movie.nfo files that just have the URL for the moviedb listing if I have to, but I wanted to see if I was missing something obvious before I start down that road.

Thanks.

It doesn't look for files themselves. I only retrieves what's in the XBMC library.

[pkscout]

You should be asking in the general section for xbmc questions, not here. It only downloads artwork for movie movies that are in your library. It doesn't look foor files.

Sorry I wasn't clear. These are movies that are in my library, but the only ones that get downloaded are the ones that have a movie.nfo file in the directory structure.

Stil the same answer
Then they are probably not stored correctly in XBMC library or in a different way. I suspect it's trying to download it to the discs themselves because you use mediastubs that point to an optical disc

Could you make a full debug log when trying to download extrafanart for one of those movies and post it using pastebin.com?

I removed the movie source from my library and deleted artwork downloader. Then I added the source back, rescanned to add the movies, and then downloaded and ran artwork downloader again. Now it's working fine. Go figure. Thanks for the pointers.

Just wait 24 hours and the new image will show
This is how long it takes for XBMC to refresh it's cache
