Bug report
Kodi 20 Nexus not displaying some movie posters of locally stored nfo information
Describe the bug
After scraping all movies in my library using TinyMediaManager 4.3.8.1 to create the .nfo and save the movie poster, fanart and clearlogo in each movie's directory, I then proceeded to download a custom movie poster for some of titles since I didn't like any of the options available in TMM. Once completed, I had multiple Kodi devices scrape all movies using Local information only.
Expected Behavior
All devices should use local .nfo information and display posters, fanart and clearlogo.
Actual Behavior
I used three Kodi devices. For two devices, most titles displayed the posters, fanart and clearlogo correctly, however Kodi did not display some of the custom movie posters that I downloaded and told TMM to use. The filenames for the posters are correct in the movie folder's directly (movie_name-poster.jpg) and I can manually select and use the custom poster after browsing to the Item Folder. For the third device, however, everything displayed correctly as expected, including all custom movie posters. There were no issues.
After some investigation, it was discovered that scanning Local information only via FTP is the culprit. The two devices that were having the issue (Firestick 4K, Windows 11 HTPC) were scanning my media via an FTP server (which I decided to use at some point for maximum speed since these two are connected via WiFi) whereas the third device (nVidia Shield Pro) that displayed all custom movie posters correctly as expected had scanned all local media via a SMB server. When I tested the WIFI Firestick 4K and the Windows 10 HTPC using SMB as the source, it also displayed all movie posters correctly as expected (tried both the official Kodi 20 release as well as the 21 Alpha1 and both had the same results).
Possible Fix
Determine why scanning via FTP results in some custom movie posters failing to be displayed in Kodi.
