I can force a get metadata job with either mythfrontend or the Web App, but
I get the same metadata artwork I already had and not the new artwork shown
on thetvdb.com.

i have always had to manually remove the inet ref under recording
metadata and make that field empty and then run mythmetadatalookup --
refresh-all. but that is a manual thing. probably it could be scripted
somehow to remove it for a given series. unless someone knows of some
other way

Some themes, like the Steppes Theme, in the recordings-ui.xml there is a
'query_botton'.
Could you please check, if this does actually update the artwork?

I had some luck with mythmetadatalookup --refresh-all on one show, but not
the other. On that show I had to use mythfrontend and select the show in
the library list and go to Scheduling options and change recording
metadata. It didn't have the data I had edited with the Web App. I had to
change it to ttvdb4 with the correct id and that instantly changed the
large photo image of the show to the correct one.

I guess I should always set up new recordings with the specific ID I want
to get the right metadata.

once the individual recording populates its recording metadata field
with the inet number, the mythmetadatalookup --refresh won't change it
even if the recording rule metadata inet ref has changed. as far as i
have always found. usually i see it and its a single show so far, so i
remove the incorrect inet in the show metadata and either replace it or
make it empty and do the mythmetadatalookup.

Thanks, I think I have a handle on the mechanisms. I have fixed all my
existing metadata and have learned to force the right TVDB4 ID into all
recording rules using the Web App when a new program recording is first set
up.
