HI I know this was not previously possible but wonder if advances mean it is now possible.
I use mysql to synchronize libraries across multiple machines and recently upgraded to Gotham requiring me to export the library including covers to the relevant folders, the problem is therefore that the artwork is no longer an http: address but a smb: address.
can demopad now display an image for smb:// as in the example below.
{"id":"1","jsonrpc":"2.0","result":{"item":{"art":{"fanart":"image://smb%3a%2f%2f192.168.1.141%2f2014%20Movies%2fAlien%20Abduction%2fAlien%20Abduction-fanart.jpg/","poster":"image://smb%3a%2f%2f192.168.1.141%2f2014%20Movies%2fAlien%20Abduction%2fAlien%20Abduction-poster.jpg/"},"id":414,"label":"Alien Abduction","title":"Alien Abduction","type":"movie"}}}
thanks
