I have Plex Agent, I can scrape the web and add metadata, like country, cast, directors etc…  
I can create collections based on cast members and directors…  
This I have managed to do using **metadata.collections.add(‘Cast Name’)**

What would be really cool would be the ability to set the collections poster within the code to the actor’s photo which I already have.

I can add the picture in the UI but how would I do this via code in a film agent??
