Is this project dead?

There's no update since Nov 2020.
There is a bad bug that makes all posters disappear after minimizing MrMC. (nVidia Shield).
Do the developers care about people who paid for the product? If they are not working on it, and there such a severe bug, why are you still accepting payment?

There where some problems with art which resulted in some extensions needed to be updated. Could you try that ?
scrapers updated, Settings -> Extensions -> Hidden menu on the left -> Check for Update , its should also update in few hours if you let it run on Auto

Wow, I didn't expect to find somebody here! Glad somebody's still interested in this incredible app. Thanks for your reply.
The problem actually is all posters scrape correctly and everything, but after minimizing and returning to MrMC, some or all posters disappear or display weird white boxes. To fix this, I have to choose Quit from the menu and restart the app.
I tried your suggestion and restarted the app, I still get the same problem. My extensions were already set to auto update, and it's not a problem with scraping. I think it's a bug, and somebody else mentioned it before here. It happens with all skins. I attached a screenshot, sorry using my phone camera.

I am not using a shield, so I can’t test anything with you. Did you try to rebuild the icon cache ?
Assuming your poster have “poster” in the name and are jpg
1. the clean thumbnails option in
Settings -> video ->library -> clean thumbnails
2. The regenerate thumbnails option in -> settings -> appearance -> cached images -> regenerate thumbnails.

Thanks, I've tried that. Doesn't help. It's not actually a problem with the posters. They are downloaded normally, but there is a display bug that makes them disappear randomly. Restarting the app fixes it, but it's a very frequent occurrence that makes its quite annoying. I saw a couple of other people posting the same issue. Do you know if any of the developers are around?

The project is not dead and I see davilla and amet frequently on the forums.
Basically, you should not be posting in the news section with such topic expecting technical support. The right place is the subforum headlined with the device being used. For you:
viewforum.php?f=32
Describe your issue (including hardware/network setup) and make sure to upload a debug log. I suggest to initiate a clean start of the app, rebuilding the icon cache, browsing categories until you discover your bug and reference the movie with the missing artwork in your post.
amet/davilla usually respond within 48 hours. Otherwise you can drag them into the thread with an "@" and their usernames behind it. However, it is normally unnecessary.
I somehow have the impression your problem emanates from a hardware/network issue. Otherwise I would be expecting more posts on the forums with this issue.

Thanks, but I was trying to get anybody's attention as I posted this in the right forum months ago, and didn't receive any reply.
There is even a topic on the front page of the nvidia shield board you linked to with three people saying they have the issue on the Shield. It's not a network problem. It's a bug for sure. The artwork is downloaded and saved correctly, but goes blank after minimizing. Or even after returning from playback.
viewtopic.php?f=32&t=5578
I'll cc the developers like you suggested.

I was asking myself that too, it seems like it by the lack of posts in this forum.
