@crich70 - Suggestion : if download does not yield a satisfactory cover then instead of clicking on 'Generate cover' in metadata edit, click on 'Remove (cover)'.

Then after processing the list of books deal with coverless books via search "cover:False".

For those books you could widen the download sources and search for covers only, search for images directly, roll your own via the PI, make one with an image editor etc etc.
