FAQ

How this task behaves.

  • 01

    Can the AI upload these images to my media server?

    No. The AI only finds and retrieves the artwork. You must handle the actual file transfers or uploads yourself.

  • 02

    Does the AI delete any of my existing artwork?

    No. This connector is read-only. It only fetches new data from Fanart.tv and cannot modify your local files.

  • 03

    Can I ask for specific image resolutions?

    The AI retrieves what is currently available in the latest uploads. It does not have a tool to filter by specific pixel dimensions.

  • 04

    Will it find artwork for every single artist?

    It can only find artwork that has been recently uploaded to Fanart.tv. If an artist has no recent uploads, the agent won't find anything.

  • 05

    Can the AI create new artwork?

    No. The agent only accesses existing assets hosted on Fanart.tv.
