Is there someway to stop using TVDB for scraping actor images? - kagetsu - 2025-08-09

TVDB is horrible when it comes to anime for example. Instead of normal actor images they will sometimes use the anime cartoon chars because they have a rule that says images for actors have to be in role of the movie/show. This leads to comical casts with half cartoon half person.

I've tried removing TVDB from my Movies library as one of the scrapers but whenever it refreshes people it just populates with a bunch of junk from TVDB.
