Are you talking about movie cover or online movie info that are mapped to your imported movies?
They are from Moovielive.com, if you can't locate one on the online movie database for sepecifc language or region, then powerdvd cannot map the cover for your movies. They all come from cyberlink's online movie portal, or you can assign your photos as a custom cover art by right clicking.
Here is what I have found and will put in a ticket to get an answer. When I installed PDVD18 and left PDVD17 undisturbed it had the movie titles under the disk cover. If I deleted PDVD 17 data and tried a clean install, I would have some movies with cover art and titles and other movies without. On further investigation, I realized that the ones without titles were the ones that copied the Video Disk (DVD) file structure to the folder and the ones with titles were the *.iso image files.
My library structure is a 5 digit folder number and then the video files:
Video Rip
X:/#####/{Movie Title}/VIDEO_TS/
ISO Rip
X:/#####/*.ISO
I know that PDVD 17 used the name of the ISO file for the movie title, or the name of the Folder {Movie Title}, for the movie title under the cover art. PDVD 18 does not pick up the name of the folder for the Video Rip.
I also noticed that the sort order is based on the 5 digit folder ID for the ones without a movie title and on the movie title for the ISO Rips.
This, along with the media folder scanning problems, seems to indicate that Cyberlink screwed up the module that scans and populates titles.
*** Update 20180526
Since I have been informed the Forum is not part of Cyberlink support, I will pass on the latest.
Entered the ticket. Got the usual Tier 1 answer. Uninstall, reboot, reinstall, and see if it goes away. Exercised that option by first, keeping PDVD 18 data, No joy. Then, went through the same routine except this time removed PDVD 18 data. This puts me in the world of poor performance populating the libray, currently taking a couple days to add 200 movies. At any rate, can already tell it has not solved the problem. We will see what is next.
Since PDVD 18 has an infinity for pulling movie info from Cyberlink instead of grabbing the art from the folder that contains the movie, I think the performance is somewhat impacted by this database stuff. Unfortunately, the database is wrong in several areas. For example, it routinely pulls old movie covers instead of the correct one.
