Hi All
Just starting to build a movie library and have been creating .nfo files and artwork files using MediaElch.
In MediaElch I select my preferred poster and sometimes modify genre, names etc.
All my video files are in separate folders, and I create an .nfo file and poster.jpg file for each folder.
I then go to the source folder and select the folder for the film and 'Scan to library'.
Kodi then brings up the new information page for the film.
Everything seems correct, except for some reason Kodi is not using the local poster.jpg to generate the preview images.
Does anyone know why? I thought it was supposed to prefer local images.
At the moment I fix this by 'choose art' and then select the file from the item folder. This wastes time.
Am I missing something here? I'm new to video libraries...
Thanks
