Dear all
Please post mythtv version, i.e. the output of
{{{
mythfrontend --version
or
mythbackend --version
}}}
and post the log files as well.

Procedures to change/update coverarts, get log files and MySQL entries:

For videos:
menu->i->Change Video Details->reset details
menu->i->Change Video Details->retrieve details

MySQL: videometadata table
Logs: mythfrontend.log


For recordings:
if no metadata has been retrieved before:
M --> Job Options --> Begin Metadata Lookup

if already a lookup for metadata was done:
See
https://forum.mythtv.org/viewtopic.php?f=36&t=4121

Logs: mythbackend.log, mythmetadatalookup.log
MySQL: recordedartwork table

Regards,
Roland
