Hi all,

Back when I was running 0.26, mythtv would automatically download cover
art, banners, and wallpaper.

Since upgrading to 0.27, this hasn't happened. I did discover that 0.26
was dropping everything into the default storage group (i.e. my
recordings directory) and the grabber was complaining about writes. So
I've set up separate storage groups for each one, each being in their
own directory.

I manually ran:
`mythmetadatalookup --refresh-all-rules`
`mythmetadatalookup --refresh-all`
`mythmetadatalookup --refresh-all-artwork`

And it did update coverart, but no banners or fanart. I can go into
recording rules and do this manually, but even if I set the banners and
fanart and go to the watch recordings screen the only things shown in
the cover art (DVD cover).

Is the fanart/cover art/banners all retrieved automatically by the backend?

I'm using the Arclight theme and I remember all of this working without
intervention. I'm just curious to know what went wrong and if someone
else bumped across this issue.

I ran mythfrontend from the console and no errors appear.

The backend log lists this:
2014-11-14 19:56:36.742166 W [9776/10185] ProcessRequest
ringbuffer.cpp:658 (Start) -
RingBuf(/mnt/mythstorage/fanart//ttvdb.py_257655_fanart.jpg): Not
starting read ahead thread, this is a write only RingBuffer

The backend and frontend are separate, could this be an issue sending
the artwork from the backend to the frontend?
