Recording a current series and the first 2 show up as they should, but the third episode, recorded yesterday, has no poster.

It seems that [TVDB.com](http://TVDB.com) has no image for this (or the next) episode. So is PMS totally reliant on this external source for images? In that case should PMS not simply use a snapshot from the video file? Will it automatically grab the image once [TVDB.com](http://TVDB.com) have it, or will that need manual intervention?
