 * I checked the website on IMDB and there is a difference between my poster and
   the primary poster that comes up for IMDB. Is there a way to select or specify
   which poster?

 * Hi and thanks for taking the time to write a support thread. Could you give me
   an example of movies where this happens?
 * IMDb Connector uses the data provided by omdbapi.com, an **unofficial** API for
   IMDb. That means that I have no influence on the raw data being received, and
   when it comes to the poster, it includes only a single URL. [Here’s an example with the movie “Avatar”](http://omdbapi.com/?t=Avatar).
 * So, to answer your question: No, unfortunately there’s no way to choose a certain
   poster (if more than one is available).
