No artwork for sporting events

Yes make sure you disable SD art so the all the blank catalogs don't get created.

Just so I'm clear, I just need to change

Code:

<ArtworkFromSchedulesDirect>

from true to false, right?

Or, do I also need to change

Code:

<PreferArtFromSchedulesDirect>true</PreferArtFromSchedulesDirect>

(particularly?) for ones that might already be in the cache?

I would turn it off in the web browser, and I don't know what PreferArtFromSchedulesDirect does, that might by legacy. You might need to run NextTool to clean up some empty catalogs from the last few weeks.

I spent a tiny bit of time debugging with SD and they are working on a change to get this working again for NextPVR and other supported grabbers in production.  v4 user will likely be out of luck.

Are you ready for some football?

Thanks Martin that's encouraging!

I found some artwork for NFL, MLB, and some others I was missing in the meantime. I also got some artwork from the HDHR addon for Kodi.

Hopefully SD will have it ready soon.

Looks like SD doesn't work at all now. My lineups disappeared in NextPVR EPG Sources settings.

I see this note when I log in to SD.

Notice:
1. No SD-JSON lineups found (which may be ok). If needed, add via your application.

Edit: Nevermind I just had to add them again.

Is there any word from SD as to the future of artwork from them? I still have no artwork from SD.

I'm thinking of trying XML TV Listings https://www.xmltvlistings.com/

You would probably be better off just disabling Schedules Direct, since NextPVR will still try tmdb and tvmaze first and the unique ids from TV Passport are different from TMS so the recording duplicate history will be lost.

I did hear back from SD and they are continuing with testing server changes, guess I am the only one with art now <g> Anyway the authentication changes that sub made a while ago are working as expected and really we just need to wait.

Sounds good.

Thanks for the update Martin.
