Clear out and refresh artwork

[Gustovier]

Due to me having some older acquired some low res fanart from an older version of BMT. I have to reget all my movie artwork. I first went to the predifined "All Movies" view and then I chose the "remove fanart files". I double checked they were gone by looking over my fanart directory. All good thus far.

I then chose "Refresh fanart", and I started getting the better res fanart (posters, and backgrounds). Then all of a sudden it stopped around maybe movie #200 out of 936. I was getting a "timer" error i believe in the phoenix.log I can't remember it exactly and it got overwritten once I restarted Sage. I couldn't even manually retrieve artwork via find the "Find Metadata" once in a specific movie in the webUI. But after I restarted i seemed to be able to retrieve fanart again by clicking "Refresh fanart" (I think it's smart enough that it's bypassing what I got the first time). Is there some failsafe that stops me from retrieving a bunch of fanart at one time? Or is this something else..

Ok, so after my restart and then clicking on "refresh fanart" I still have a good big movies where the fanart will not download by using the "refresh fanart" facility. I have to manually go into each movie and do a search for it. I CAN try and delete the /stv/phoenix/fanart/movie/<mymovie/ directory and try the "refresh fanart" again, but that just causes BMT to get 1 poster image, with no backdrop images

There is nothing in bmt that prevents you from grabbing fanart after a certain limit, but there maybe checks on themoviedb that does.

Refresh fanart is meant to be used add new fanart to your existing fanart, but if you've cleaned out the fanart (as you've done), then it should re-download it all over again.

Fanart is downloaded in a couple of background threads. So while the "process" from the ui says it's done, it may still continue for a fairly long time.
