Proper tagging of MKV files - how and what?

Not sure I understood what you mean but this is what I have below.
I had a thought now...
Does MC copy the thumbnail picture to my shared folder where the mkv is after I use that option "Get Movie & TV Info"?
Because if that is the case then I thing I know what the problem is: I gave only read access to those shared folders.
And if that is not the case, then ŠI certainly don't have any picture inside this folder. I have only my mkv file.
EDIT: I've added Read/Write permissions but nothing changed.

How to fix this?
mattkhan:
No idea tbh, your options said cover art would be in your home but the tag says it's alongside the mkv so maybe the preceding option about audio files also applies here? Regardless I would do the following
Enable logging
Repeat the get movie info action
Share the log here
Maybe it gives a clue as to what is happening
zybex:
Try doing again "get tv&movie info" after you gave it Write permissions, and check if MC creates the jpg poster file next to the movie file.
If there's a poster file there but the thumbnail still doesn't show up, try Right-Click on the movie and select "Covert Art -> Rebuild Thumbnails".
You can also select multiple files and then do Get Movie&TV info for all of them in one go.
Finally, you can enter the tt123456 movie ID manually in the [IMDB Id] field before doing the Get Movie Info, and MC will use it. This is only needed for cases where MC can't automatically find the right info.
PS: This page is extra-slow because you're posting some huge screenshots using that slow ibb.co hosting site. Please resize your photos, some of them are over 10 MB. Or use a proper screenshot tool instead of photos.

I apologize for my error. I have now scaled down the pictures and I hope this sorts the slowness.
How can I enable the logging?
The folder where the mkv resides does not have anything else indeed.
I gave already read/write permissions to all my shared folders.
Get Movie & TV Info is able to find it though.
In fact the IMDb ID is already there with lots of other stuff. The only thing missing seems to be the cover.
Rebuild thumbnail option does not change anything.
