Guest Posted March 9, 2023 Share Posted March 9, 2023 I have a Pi 4 with Kodi on it connect to my TV. The problem here is, i had spent months on cleaning up some video file, cutting them and cleaning up the audio. So, i have finished up will all of my video file, movies and TV Shows, all in MP4 along with movies poster. I connected a USB TB hard drive to the computer to transfer my video files and posters over to the USB drive. Ok, here's the thing, I created two folders onto the drive and named them MOVIES / TV SHOWS. Inside of the MOVIE folder, i created sub-folders and named each one the name of the movie and placed the movie file along with the poster into that sub-folder. So the sub-folder and video file has the same name movie CHIP N DALE RESCUE RANGERS (2022).mp4 poster CHIP N DALE RESCUE RANGERS (2022)-poster.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 (edited) Like i posted above, i have renamed the video file and poster to 1 hour ago, cherokee79 said: CHIP N DALE RESCUE RANGERS (2022).mp4 poster CHIP N DALE RESCUE RANGERS (2022)-poster.jpg So, since i have created a folder on the USB drive and a sub-folder for the video file along with the poster and name the sub-folder the same title of the movie. I connected the USB drive to my Pi 4 and loaded up Kodi. I can get to my movie but it only shows the thumbnail of the movie, not the poster. so that is my issue. The image is a bite blury, but the movie is good, but it's not showing the poster, just a thumbnail Edited March 10, 2023 by cherokee79 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37066 Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 HI, is this using the Emby for Kodi add-on? What do you see in the Emby web interface? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
