</div>here is an idea then...<br>
<br>
I can link to my photo whenever artwork wasn't found.<br>

I'm sure TVDB will get updated very quickly and often then<br></blockquote></div><br><br></div><div class="gmail_extra">One thing to note is that TVDB policies can prevent users from correcting data. One obvious example is the ban on any sports. Another example is the very famous 40+ year old PBS show Masterpiece Theater that should be in Season 44 but was locked at season 40. This is the cause of the [4417] episode someone above reported. There is no way for any US user to pull accurate metadata for that show.<br>
<br></div><div class="gmail_extra">It would be great if in the metadata cleanup there was a simple way to fallback on generic coverart in these type cases. Maybe just a jpg somewhere that matches the series title as the absolute last fallback?<br>
