[mythtv-users] Fanart

[Daniel Frey]

There are 2 ways that I can think of...

1. Mythweb, when you open a recording rule, there is a Lookup button next
to the inetref field.  If there are more than one, a popup displays showing
you the various options.

2. On a recording, you can edit the metadata.  One of the options, once the
inetref is filed in, you can tell it to lookup the banner, coverart, etc.

There may be others.  I typically use mythweb for this, and fallback to
option 2 above when I am not at my laptop.
