I had a look at the source. The frontend searches by program name, season
number, and episode number (with the last two parts optional). If it can't
find an image that way it tries a file of the form
'series_id[_(fanart|banner|coverart)].(png|jpg|gif)'. So Jamu is just saving
the images in the right place with the right names - there's no database
link as there is in the case of videos. So yeah, nothing needed in the xml
file.

Interesting difference in approach between MythFE and MythVideo.

Cheers,
Steve
