Thumbnail linked to films Advice needed.

[Bollocks77]

Hi all,
Hope this sounds clear enough. I have a WD NAS linked to my T8mini and I access the films through "files" then into the various folders. Ive noticed no film has a thumbnail linked to it - just a sort of empty logo thing.
Im not sure if this has always been the case but I was trying to link but Im not sure how to do it or if it can be done.
Hope someone can advise me.
Regards
Dave

Have you scanned the media into Kodi's library? If not, https://droidbox.co.uk/how-to/setting-up-kodi-the-right-way/ and https://droidbox.co.uk/how-to/adding-to-your-library/ were written during Jarvis (so different skin), but might help. I think the thumbnails should appear once your library is working and has had time to check TVDB etc for info on your media.
