Rygel does not do this out of the box. Could you file an enhancement bug 
for this? Should be easy to implement by using libmediaart now.

As, however, it blindly uses whatever is in ~/.cache/thumbnails, you can 
just replace the thumbnail by the movie poster.
I think I might still have a small script at home to do that without too 
much fumbling.
