The app is not touching existing video/subtitle files, only places the selected poster/cover near the movie, as .jpg, having same name as the movie file.
Generated thumbnails are 200x300 (max. 70KB) and can be chosen from amazon.com, themoviedb.org and/or thetvdb.com.
It basically scans files in all selected folders and based on the movie filename tries to perform a search.
If the default search is not retrieving optimal results the user can refine/adjust the keywords and resubmit the search.
I wrote it for me, so I do not guarantee 100% satisfaction for everybody (it is a beta version, a draft)
If there is interest (from your side) and time (from mine) we can think about adding providers/extensions.
PS: The app is a classical ClickOnce distribution (no extra registry/files) and can be uninstalled easily from Add/Remove Programs.

Cool app. Version 0.2b is crashing for me consistently on certain .avi files. Here's the error report (WinXP SP3):
