I just got Jellyfin installed and indexed and it’s been pretty good, but there’s one thing I can’t figure out. Shows and Movies are correctly identified but instead of showing the cover art it’s a random screen grab from the first episode or part of the movie.

Does anyone know how to get it to correctly pull from TMDB preferably, or another source. I could do it by hand, but I have hundreds of movies and series.

    Basically what happens is JF correctly identifies the series from the file names. I can look at all the corresponding metadata and see that it’s correct, including the TMDB id. However there’s just no cover art. I have two identical series and for one it pulls it in and the other it doesn’t.

    I know it’s not TMDB (directly) as I have another media server (Think like a Dune or Zidoo) and it is also indexing the same exact files against TMDB and it will correctly add the cover art.

    Here’s two examples

    Is there any way I can enable/see logging to see what API calls it’s trying to make and their status? I can probably figure it out from there.
