Local .actors not showing up in information - TryggNorwegian - 2024-02-08

I have an .actors folder within a tvshow.
Like so:
"C:\Band of Brothers\.actors\Damian_Lewis.jpg"
In my NFO it's like this:
  <actor>
    <name>Damian Lewis</name>
    <role>Richard D. Winters</role>
    <order>0</order>
    <thumb/>
  </actor>

The photo's are 1000w1500h, I don't get what I'm doing wrong here.

The <thumb> tag has to contain a url to the picture of the actor.  It can be either a local link (sounds like what you want) or an internet URL.

Hi, Thank you for your time!
Unfortunately a local link doesn't work as I'm not using it for a specific OS. I'm using it on several operating systems so the URL would then be invalid on the majority of the OS's.
In addition the entire point of what I'm making is to keep it completely offline, so having an online URL would defeat the point.
