for months I didn't really "care" about MP. Cause all works fine .But now I like to finish several little affairs of my skin mod (projectone). After searching and reading in several thread without any real sucess there is one special question I couldn't really resolve. I hope to get an advice here...
As I see FanartHandler supports now mvcentral. What I like to menage is, that for every single musicvideo an individual backdrop appears. (Similar too all the backdrops in movingpictures.)
I already created for a collection of testfiles fullscreen backdrops. Then added this files in fanarthandler as "add image to selected artist" with the result that they appears in MP as random pictures but not as the right and only one in the case of the specific musicfile.

Since ages

for every single musicvideo an individual backdrop appears

Also since ages - the fanart is grabbed automatically from the selecterd artist of the musicvideo

fanart properties:

#fanarthandler.music.backdrop1.selected and #fanarthandler.music.backdrop2.selected

By the way I checked it with the default skin and u complex skin . I suppose there is an misunderstanding.
The problem isn't the artist (it works), the question is the (call it) song/track level.
To clarify it. I own an huge collection of musicvideo stuff of one special musican. One of 8 subsection of this musican are videoclips with more than 50 videoclips...As I already wrote I would like get for every videoclip their special individuel backdrop (not only the backdrops of the artist) This don't worked in the default skin or any other skin I tested...

Ah, understand, something like the album cover, but in your case an image from the musicvideo as backdrop
@ajs ????? Is that possible?

Is that possible?

mvCentral provides this information? If yields is possible. If not, where did it take?

Plug-know artist name, album name (and not always), Genre and like everything.

there are 3 art categories in mvcentral: "art thumb full path" (used for selected.thumb) but there is also "art full path" and "alternate arts". Maybe one of these fields could be used?
There could be a solution without fanarthandler if there is a command to show the picture saved in "art full path" or "alternate arts". But I couldn't find any command for this field till yet.
