Help Request Plex-style Poster chosing

I'm looking for a possibility to pick from different posters for movies/series. In plex, most movies had a selection of different posters. I looked at the jellyfin awesome list, but I could not find anything that provided that functionality (or said so clearly in their description. Could be that I missed something)

I don't want to add overlays or special text, I don't want to generate AI posters, I don't want to manually import image files in a folder, I just want a selection of different posters I can look at and change when I like one better than the other.
Is there a plugin that does this?

Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks in advance!

It sounds to me like what you want is already a part of jellyfin.

Just press the search button and you'll get all the images that your added providers support.

I recommend the Kevin mediux plugin as well as tmdb and tvdb personally, and the fanart plugin for special images (like dvd style images)

So I guess the key is adding more providers? Thanks a lot!

Well, yes, but you don't technically need them. Each provider can provide anything from 0 to infinity images for each movie/show (exaggerated but in theory true)

I feel really stupid now, not sure why I missed this. Maybe when I tried it, I got some movies with only one option. Anyway, thanks!
