I've seen covers by big publishers on Amazon that are totally for a different book!
A new publisher or existing one (for a previously published book) can decide on a new eBook cover to cash in on a TV/Streaming series that's actually irrelevant to the book, so older official cover is really the "correct one"
I've been doing multimedia production for 30 years, writing & programming for 40 years and publishing for over 20 years. Websites for 25+ years and Web server side programming for 20 years. Why the personal attacks just because I suggest what you want is a combination of already exists and not workable?
Anyone experienced in programming can add this as Calibre is a totally open system. Kovid has done a marvellous job over the years and others have added lots of good functionality.
Feel free to make your own additions since no-one seems interested in doing it for you and experts (including Kovid) think it's neither needed nor appropriate and you don't like the free advice you asked for.
