If you do "Scrape Media" -> Missing -> Auto -> Posters Only what does it do?
That goes through and generally does a pretty good job of scraping posters. It doesn't get all of them, but it does get like 90%. The rest I can usually find by doing a single scrape of that movie. Some of them are changed names I have to correct with a single rescrap anyway.
What file types are the movies that don't create extrathumbs? It won't scan them for disc images (such as ISO, IMG, BIN, etc). Do you have auto generate extrathumbs enabled in settings?
I have double checked and I do have auto generate extrathumbs checked in settings. It does do it for a few, but like maybe 10%. It also seems to hang alot, that seems to happen alot on certian movies. I have un-highlighted them and let it go again, it does alot better at making it's way through, but still doesn't generate too many thumbs. Good news is that if I run it through several times, it seems to get a few more each time. Most of them I have to either do a single rescrap, or hit generate extrathumbs in a single scrape it will do it. Although I have noticed that some of my movies don't give me that option.
Most of my movies are AVI, about 75%. I have some XVID, MKV, WMV, and I think maybe a few MPEG 4 even. I convert most over to AVI to save hard disk space over the OSI files.
I have gotten it to scrape and download trailers nicely. It of course takes awhile, but it does a pretty good job with those, just having problems with the extrathumbs really.
