I have added a rip of The Shape Of Water to my movies library. It imports fine, but no artwork appears.

The folder name is THE SHAPE OF WATER (2017) tt5580390 which s the same format as all my other folders.

Manually re-importing or refreshing doesn't fix it. Nor does deleting the folder and then re-creating it.

Any ideas?

    As you may know TheTvDb is notoriously overloaded and often simply doesn't return anything. Looking at the site itself it turns out that there is not much fanart available. Things look better for Fanart.tv, so verify what you have selected as online sources for the download in your settings. Personally I prefer Fanart.tv over TheTvDb as it appears much more complete to me.

    Its not just fanart, its the image of the DVD case as well.
    I have all three sources selected and it is still not displaying anything, but I know it has recognised the movie title as the text description appears.

    This is the first movie I have imported in a few weeks. I wonder whether it is a problem in the database rather then the art not actually being downloaded?

    Update: I just ripped another movie and the artwork showed up straight away, so looks like this problem is just limited to that particular film.

    Is there anyway to manually create at least the DVD cover? I hate having blanks in my library.

    Just ripped "Tolkien" (2009) IMDB ref tt3361792

    Same symptoms. Film recognised. Text description appears, but no artwork.

    Any pointers on how to fix this manually?

    Seriously guys. Nothing....?

    Just ripped "Repo Man" - the 1984 cult classic. Again, no artwork.

    Reporting this as a bug. Artwork scraping seems to be broken on my installation of MP2.

    Tolkien is from 2019, not 2009.

    This what I get

    Did you try as "Reimport"? What movies to choose from are presented?
