    You will need to post far more details such as
    Zidoo model
    Firmware number
    Name of movie
    Scrapping source, TMDB, TVDB etc.
    A detailed description of your procedure.

    After setting your poster image, how long after you do so, does it change/revert to a previous image.
    Do you use meta refresh?
    Are there any associated NFO files in the same folder as your movie?
    What are your settings in Preferences….
     
  3. I am using Z9x pro with latest firmware that was realized this month. It all movies and tv shows, matter fact. I tried different scrapping sources and it reverts back within 1 second when i refresh the web gui page. when I change poster on device, it doesn’t change at all.

    Do it on the Zidoo not the web interface and see what happens.

    If all else fails then remove all files into a temporary safe location, Using TMM add the movie. Place a copy of the desired poster in the same folder as the movie and name it Movie name-poster.jpg. Then after HT has done its job go to menu and select change image, click on the plus sign and navigate to where your desired poster file is located.
     
  5. I am sorry, what is TMM?
    Oddly enough, I already have posters, backdrops, etc assigned to each movie file with help of Emby and NFO assigned by sonarr. Even Kodi player recognized the metadata, pictures , etc.

    TMM, Tiny media manager.
    If you have the poster you need, make sure it is named the same as you have named your movie file followed by -poster.jpg or png etc.
     
  7. Thanks, will give that a try
