Guest worthington_j Posted September 20, 2017 Posted September 20, 2017 I recently moved from a kodi sql database to using the emby kodi plug-in. One of the options on the emby plug-in is to "Cache all artwork". I'm curious what this option does. I noticed it will clear out my userdata\thumbnails but it does not re-populate the thumbnails as I would have guessted. Typically I use the texturecache.py script to pre-download the thumbnails on my Raspberry Pi's so they run faster. Is the "Cache all artwork" function supposed replace the need for the texturecache.py script? Thanks in advance.

Guest worthington_j Posted September 21, 2017 Posted September 21, 2017 Thanks for the information. I don't think mine is working because my thumbnails folder is empty after the scan.
Angelblue05 4132 Posted September 22, 2017 Posted September 22, 2017 (edited) Just tested and it works fine here. Do you have your Kodi log? To cache texture, your web server needs to be able to be activated (kodi settings > services > web server). Let me know. Edited September 22, 2017 by Angelblue05
Guest worthington_j Posted September 23, 2017 Posted September 23, 2017 I ran it again to get the log file and this time it appears to be working. I'll keep an eye on it.
