You can. The setup has a place to specify where the posters are stored at
and then you can select the movie and update it's cover but it should work
trying to get the data from imdb. Have you looked at your frontend log while
trying to download the data from imdb? Do you get any type of error? It is
probably a problem with permissions where the posters are stored, no write
permissions.
