So you're saying that Emby saves the actual URL that an image is pulled from? It doesn't just scan for missing images and download missing images? 

Anyway, I have adding dozens of movies since this started and it is hit and miss those that get the fanart treatment. I'll try to run a control on a couple of movies and see what happens.

It depends on whether you have the option enabled to download images in advance or not. Make sure to read the help text underneath the option before changing it.

In either case the same image gets downloaded. The option only determines when that happens.

But what would prevent Emby for seeing the existing Backdrop?

Maybe Locked metadata?
