Issue with thumbnail images #313

Closed JimiC closed 7 years ago

JimiC commented 7 years ago

Operating System Version: All OS

Popcorn Time Version: 0.3.10

Problem: Turns out that thumbnail images are mostly fetched from fanart. Unfortunately this service has a slow response time.

I have noticed that some images are trying to be fetched from walter.trakt.us and they fail because this service has been moved to walter.trakt.tv.

Solution: Consider switching the image fetching to https://walter.trakt.tv/

The image URL's come from API, popcron just use it to show. Maybe @ChrisAlderson can solve this?

JimiC commented 7 years ago

@VitorVRS I'm totally aware of that, but have no clew who is controlling the API or where that project is.

Edit: I take my above statement back, the API project is obviously at https://github.com/popcorn-official/popcorn-api 🐵

Opened this issue on API project at https://github.com/popcorn-official/popcorn-api/issues/49.

Consider leaving this issue open until issue on API project is discussed or resolved.

Move the discussion to https://github.com/popcorn-official/popcorn-api/issues/49, popcorn-desktop has no relevant code which can resolve this issue.
