If you don't know how to do that:
- Install plugin from catalog (restart required)
- Go to your library and change the order so that TVDb is first
- Make sure to turn off the Missing Episode Fetcher - Unless you want it, I find it causes more issues than it solves
- Go to the series and replace all metadata with images selected. You may want to lock the series after acquiring metadata.
- Then go back and change the order to have TMDB
Thanks very much. I figured out why Looney Tunes wasn't in TMDB's shows. They list EACH EPISODE as a movie since they were originally short firms. That might be accurate from a historical perspective, but it's insane from an organizational perspective. Imagine 600+ 5-minute-long Looney Tunes "movies" cluttering up the place you store actual long-form films. It's a no-brainer to go with TVDB in this case. My main fear is that I mess something up and TVDB screws up all of my other stuff, but I guess I'll just do a backup of config/cache before pulling from there.
