Hi cul8er, just a small note. It seems the version is still 2.0 on your DLL.

The minor revision has updated so thats ok, can you double check you deployed the correct version?

Re: Fanart Handler Plugin v2.1 (and music fanart scraper)

cul8er,

just installed 2.1 with mp 1.1.0 final (updated from 1.1.0RC6.
It was a first time installation of fanarthandler on this system. (But I have installed it (2.0) a couple of times successful on my htpc)

I am on Wondows7.
I use fanart only for music, but can't do a scan in the configuration. Music database is set up, of course.

The fanart config log complains about parts of a path missing.
Indeed no such folders are on my system. Actually there is not even a "Fanart" folder. But there is a "Skin FanArt" folder. But this one also doesn't contain a "moving pictures" or "Fanart\original" folder.

Any ideas?

Here is the complete config log:

Re: Fanart Handler Plugin v2.1 (and music fanart scraper)

I am getting the same kind of problem ,although my log file gives errors about "could not open database"

I installed the plugin things works ok and about the second time i go into mediaportal to test all fanart goes black. Then when i go in to configuration all of a sudden their is 0 next to artists and 0 fanart. but files are still in the fanart folder.

When i reinstall fanart things repeat with about 2 or 3 times working and then dying again.

I have tried this on 2 different pc's and both give same issue. What am i doing wrong?

WAIT

FOUND IT

Configuration for some reason did not close completely. It was still showing up in the task manager. After I closed it in task manager everything started working again.

Alternative default music image when no fanart (yum)

(The original is also 1680x1050, but had some text which i air brushed out) - It's quite large size (450k) because I didn't want to loose any quality when i edited the jpg.

Cul8er: Just installed the new 2.1 version that is bundled with streamedmp, and i gotta say - great work! I also really like the way fanart handler can be pointed to the tvseries/moving pics folder for images in the streamedmp menu editor. So thanks for adding those features.

Re: Fanart Handler Plugin v2.1 (and music fanart scraper)

Hi,

Version 2.1.1 is released.

Changees since 2.1;
* bug fixed: DirectoryNotFoundException is now handled correctly by the plugin
* bug fixed: Configuration allways checked all local fanart. Now uses timestamps just like the plugin in MP.
* bug fixed: fanarthandler.org database included in installer was old version, now current
* bug fixed: Fanart available flag (id: 91919294) was not set properly on end of playback.
* bug fixed: Dll version set to 2.1.1

Any one else having issue's with Fanart Handler taking insane amounts of resources... When I have FH enabled, my MP is non responsive and the memory usage is at an insane 1.3GB... While when FH is disabled, my memory usage for MP is around 200MB

Have had to disable as the severe memory usage kills responsiveness and introduces general unstable behaviour.. Thanks..

I use the Fanart handler for several months. Mostly everything works fine. But I noticed some issues:

1. If the artist name contains a "&", the fanart handler doesn't import the backdrops automatically. For example: Marina & The Diamonds

2. If the artist name consists of single characters separated by dots like R.E.M., the backdrops aren't imported automatically too.

3. If a song has multiple artists separated by ";" the fanart handler shows the backdrops already available on the computer but it doesn't import new ones.
