[QUOTE="fforde, post: 540019, member: 52082"] 1) Yes you can turn off backdrops but you will probably will have to modify the skin files. This setting is only available in the skin files because generally we try to leave presentation stuff up to the skin designers. Some skins are designed to look good with backdrops (fanart) and some are not and we let the skin designer decide what they want to do. All that said, look in the beginning of your movingpictures.xml file in your skin folder. At the top is a list of variables that allows you to define when a backdrop is used. For example you can see the relevant lines for the Blue3wide skin [URL="http://code.google.com/p/moving-pictures/source/browse/trunk/MovingPictures/MainUI/Blue3wide/movingpictures.xml#12"]here[/URL]. 2) You will be able to split up your collection based on the import path in the next release, you will only need to configure the categories menu. 3) Not sure, maybe someone else can help you find a nice intro video. :P [/QUOTE]
