Title: Video Cover Art?
Post by: kartman on June 11, 2010, 01:37:07 pm

I read a post about using My Movies to pull artwork and metadata into sidecar files for import into MC. I'll have to look into this as a workflow.

For now, is there a plugin to pull artwork from the internet (e.g. Amazon) in an automated/semi-automated fashion?

With the more recent versions of 15, you can right click the file and click Lookup Movie Info From Wikipedia. You can then choose to use the image and/or metadata from Wikipedia. It works great!

I agree... I'd tried this a couple of times. It works great...

Any way to batch? I couldn't seem to grab multiples. Also, the wiki thing seems to be movie posters. I was thinking about something that grabbed the DVD or BD case cover art from something like Amazon. Just personal preference...
