There is two options for you that I can think of straight away:
  • When you are in the movie section inside MP, refresh IMDB (either F3 or F9 and then choose IMDB) then in the movie overview you can select from a number of different movie posters
  • If that does not help, you need to close MP and go into Configuration, inside Movies and then inside Movies Database. There you can choose the Title you want to edit. Click on Coverart tab and there you can either point to the URL of the correct image, or browse to a local file

    Just to add to what Furetto said, BACKUP your MP folder to somewhere safe, it can be a real pain reimporting all your Movies once you have finished doing all your updates\configuring, this will allow you to restore individual or mass settings.

    Cheers

    I meant use MP client to try to spot how it's requesting streams for specific channels and then try to do the same with VLC. TV Server development looks dead so I'm afraid you're going to have to figure that out by yourself if it's even possible.
