Allow Separate Local Asset / Metadata Storage

Feature Request -- ability to use local collection posters assets

There is currently no way to use local assets for collection posters like we can other artwork (poster.jpg etc…).

One possible solution could be to have a collection.jpg in the folder with the movies which are part of the collection. You could even mandate that a copy the same collection.jpg for each movie which is part of the collection has to exist.

I’ll therefore close this thread as a duplicate.
