however.

The only issue I have found is that the artwork lookup service picks up
subtitle files as well as the video file and downloads artwork for all
(possibly three) files.  This leaves you with a view on the frontend where
you can't tell which of the three files is the video to select and play.

Also, the media downloaded for the subtitle files doesn't seem to be
permanent, so when you do a re-scan, the frontend pops up for matches for
all of your subtitle files each time.

That's my experience anyway, so yes it works, but seems to clash with the
artwork downloader side of things.

Cheers
