![]() ![]() The marquee on the bottom shows up, but no movies posters. I have Kodi 18.5 installed on my PC that is connected to the Pi, however, I just downloaded it and I don't have any content on it. I did change the settings of the three areas mentioned previously in the threads and changed the settings of the Pi to 8080 from the default 9090 on the Pi and using the IP of the Kodi software. Now - since I am completely new to Kodi - wondering what else needs to be done with it to get the movie posters to appear randomly. i don't have any movies or content in Kodi or connected in any way I don't plan to use Kodi for anything other than the random movie posters. Do I need to do something with Kodi specifically for this to work - import movies or content (add-ons) somehow? What might I be missing? I am really excited to be this far and it seems to work great just need the posters to show up. I am assuming I can select certain posters (not random) to appear as well by finding the certain posters and placing into a folder? Is there a "set" of movie posters somewhere that I would import into Kodi? Sorry for all the questions - I didn't have a lot of information from the directions on the website as to Kodi itself once everything else has been setup. Thank you!Ĭlick to expand.Well long story, people start using programs like tiny media manager and similar because the old days when the media player was like popcorn, need it a way to scan and scraping movies (poster, info, fanart, etc), then KODI arrive and has embed or with plugins scrappers like imdb, universal media scrapper and storage the same info, poster, fanart, and all the other info embed in KODI DB, also with kodi you have all the features that you have with external editors, you can rescan a movie, change the poster, the fan art.Īlso when tiny media create the NFO, its never updated from kodi, inside NFO you will find also how many times the movies has played, but even if you played the movie with KODI 2-3 times, the NFO stay the same, becaude kodi save all the info in internal DB and not in external file. If you try to scrap your library with KODI, kodi check the folder and found the NFO files so scrap this movie and use the info from NFO and not from internet, local scrapper. I dont see why is a problem to delete the NFO, but if you dont want to delete then maybe you can try to go in one folder of your movies, edit the NFO file inside and delete the line about the poster path then save the NFO, force KODI to scrap this movie and see if poster display movienow.if not, then i am i am afraid i cant help you, i have try to develop a solution for all this, but nothing it works KODI has embed to check first the NFO files for a poster. #Tinymediamanager writing nfo failed manual.#Tinymediamanager writing nfo failed update.#Tinymediamanager writing nfo failed movie.#Tinymediamanager writing nfo failed for mac osx.Well long story, people start using programs like tiny media manager and similar because the old days when the media player was like popcorn, need it a way to scan and scraping movies (poster, info, fanart, etc), then KODI arrive and has embed or with plugins scrappers like imdb, universal media scrapper and storage the same info, poster, fanart, and all the other info embed in KODI DB, also with kodi you have all the features that you have with external editors, you can rescan a movie, change the poster, the fan art.
