Cover/metadata sources for "game movies"?

[Iskelderon]

Does anyone know if there's a good plugin to get covers and more details for video game content?

"Game movies" downloaded off YouTube are a nice way to relive old video games and using the IMDB ID there's usually a decent chance Jellyfin will find at least something, but cover art and the like are often something that has to be added manually and which Jellyfin sometimes likes to nuke weeks or months later even when the library is set to not update metadata without permission.

There's a plugin for video game MUSIC, but that's bound to be a separate can of worms.

Maybe this?

Also, for the record, Jellyfin makes little or no use of IMDB. TMDB often links IMDB IDs to TMDB IDs, which is why they often work still. But you should ignore IMDB when using Jellyfin.

Thanks, but unfortunately that seems to only reference Youtube, not the details for the actual game, to grab the cover and maybe description.

Sadly, without the IDs Jellyfin often gets confused with international libraries. I've grown accustomed to specifying both the TMDB and IMDB IDs as well in the folder name, since even just MovieDB sometimes leads to false results (they have separate ID series for TV shows and movies). Though I structure my folders according to MovieDB, since that seems to be used primarily when a new directory is parsed.
