SOLVED: book author image not showing - how are author images handled generally?

[happyvoid]

So excited about the improvements around books in Jellyfin 12 - thanks for improving the implementation.

Question about author metadata: how are author images handled? It seems they are grabbed from tmdb or imdb. But those are both movie databases and many book authors are absent.

What is a good way to deal with that? I know I can add images locally, but it would be nice to have a solution that scales a little better and to which many users can contribute and benefit from.

There is an open feature request to support BookBrainz which seems like a nice path forward: https://features.jellyfin.org/posts/2485...a-provider
