1 year ago We use TvDB as our thumbnail source, and will be using TMDB in the future. If you don't have and/or don't want to enable TvDB auto linking (or manually link your collection) to TvDB, then you can alternatively enable the embedded image extractor and/or screen grabber sources for episode images. You can also just enable them to generate the image thumbnails for any and all episodes that don't have a TvDB in Shoko regardless.
I'm marking this as completed, believing your query has been addressed. However, feel free to reopen the issue if you feel otherwise, or continue commenting – even while it's closed – if you have further questions on the subject. Please note, response times on GitHub can vary, and immediate responses like this one are not the norm. For more immediate assistance, I recommend our discord server. If for any reason you prefer not to use Discord, you're welcome to continue communicating via GitHub, just bear in mind it may be a slower and more asynchronous process. (I was able to respond promptly this time as I happened to be reviewing the repository and noticed the increased issue count.)
On Jellyfin Web, thumbnails if not available will be replaced by the series poster. But on Jellyfin Fire TV version, they don't get replaced and will be just left blank. I tried looking around for thumbnail generation but it was only for series and movies not individual episodes.
I'm not sure if AniDB provides individual episodes thumbnails so it might not be possible to implement it. If I were to use anilist as metadata provider it will add episode thumbnails, but I'm worried it might trump shoko's configuration.
If you have any suggestions or possible workarounds it would be really helpful.
Thank you.
