FH it does not work in a standard skin (Titan or DW).

Well, it works and it´s prepared for in DWHD (in the layout "Horizontal Text only")

Fan Art does not work there because plug-in itself shows the fanart. But genres and studio work.

M8, it works perfect You can even decide in the skin settings gui, what you want to show
Pls don´t argue with me whether it works or not - I designed it and it works as expected
Don´t have time to attach screenshots

Had the same issue with latest beta however afterwards decided to start a clean MP-TVseries install (also cleared thumbs/fanart) and now it stays at a nice idle 1-2% with Fanart Handler enabled
Do have a backup of my old MP-TVseries database so after a few longer tests to make sure everything is alright will check the differences, its logs were clean so no corruption / sqlite errors but maybe some flaky images?

// Update

After letting Mediaportal run for a while the issue returned and once I restart Mediaportal now it's the same as well, no idea why at this point but will do some more testing.

Fanart works well there. But it shows itself serials plugin. Prior to the latest beta version FH, there was no support for serials. Only for a random show.

Fan Art for the series is almost never used, it was held at the start of synchronization with the plugin series. Further FH do not even remember about the plugin series. In principle, as well as any other plugin.

I found a collection of of flags images. I think both would be nice to place them in the skins.
