How to put local description and thumbnail for season folder in TV Show menu
#1
I was looking on Kodi wiki and tried to figure out how to put information and thumbnails to my season folders in TV Show menu.
Here is my folder structure:
TV Show Folder
        Season 1 Folder
               Episode 1.mp4 - Video file
               Episode 2.mp4 - Video file

I was able to add description and thumbnails for the episodes as well as for the over all TV Show folder.
I am trying to resolve the Season 1 folder. If someone could help me out with that one would be great.

There is no provision to add Season level information. The most you can do is rename the Season... https://kodi.wiki/view/Season_rename

As for artwork, if it is named correctly, it will be found at the time of scanning/scraping. Check the image in section 2... https://kodi.wiki/view/TV-Show_artwork

Thank you for your quick reply and direction. I was able to get the artwork displayed. It would be good great if a season description could be added as each season could be featuring different topics or subjects, etc. Do you think this could be considered for future releases?

Good you got the artwork to work.

The Season plot has been asked before. I know some work was started a few years ago but it was never completed.

You can create a request in the Feature Request forum... https://forum.kodi.tv/forumdisplay.php?fid=9
