How can I manually add fanart for a tv series (1 Viewer)

I meant that if tvseries automatically created a zip file for 'finished' series as per your issue in issue tracker, then series that were brought back to life would not see the new data.

I'd like to see some sort of local scraper method for fanart + season poster + season banner.

Is it what you've asked? https://code.google.com/p/mptvseries/wiki/FAQ#Custom_Artwork

Not quite

What if no poster & fanart can be found online, or if I just don't like the ones it finds?

Is there a way to manually choose/select jpg files I have sitting on my HDD to use for posters/backdrop, etc. ?

If the series exists at TheTVdB, and you have artwork sitting around, then if you create a useraccount at TheTVdB then it is a piece of cake to add the artwork. This will then not only fix it for you (it can take a little while before TheTVdB runs the cronjob to actually add new artwork to the XML/ZIP files, but majority is available within 15minutes in my experience), but you will also benefit the entire community.

That I am already doing for TV-Shows, mainly german translations for existing EN entries.

And for your homevideos, or material not allowed at TheTVdB (such as sports), then indeed just follow @Edalex's link to the wiki above.

yap, thats the content I asked for a way to have local fanart used.
