its 2019 and still Mezzmo insists on "Getting artwork" from web, how to dsable it ???

i have 2 issues, one is that i have selected for mezzmo to STOP getting metadata and artwork from the internet because its taking up too much of my space and my internet data usage as i have thousands of video and audio files. why is it still looking for if i have selected not to???

2nd issue that i have is that i would like to see ALL my videos in one list, group, without the folder/playlist breakup. not sorted in some alphabetical folders, or original location folders, just to see them all like they are all in one folder together, one place.

thank you all very much for your help, i sincerely appreciate it.

Hi,
If you have already added your files to Mezzmo prior to selecting not to get artwork from the Internet then Mezzmo will continue to try to get artwork from the folder containing the file or from a captured video frame within the file.

You can delete the existing Mezzmo playlists and just add the folder containing your files to have them as they appear on disk.
