Mysql: Adding thumbnail to Favourites entry does not transfer to second machine? - dubwat - 2020-08-14

Hi,
I have Kodi setup on two machines.  Main = Vero 4K+ Kodi + Mysql database.  Second machine is a Win10 computer linking back to the Vero 4K+.

If I add something to Favourites on my main Kodi machine, it also shows up on the Win10 computer. 
If I add a thumbnail to the Favourites entry on the main Kodi machine, the thumbnail does not show up on the second Kodi but the 'blank' icon does.  The thumbnail is a local file (256x256px) saved under Pictures.

Is this expected behaviiour?  Should I manually add the thumbnail separately on each machine?

I saw this Mysql/Sharing artwork wiki page but I don't know if it's relevant...
