Did quite a bit of search, but I don't see an answer to my problem. My system is setup thus:

F:\Movies\Movie Title

In movie title folder, the movie.mpg, backdrop.jpg, and folder.png are sitting. I cannot for the life of me get MP to pickup the backdrop from the movie folder - I have:

Backdrop Filename Pattern: backdrop.jpg
Search movie folder for backdrops: True
Movie Folder Backdrop Filename Pattern: backdrop.jpg

And it's still not pulling them from the local folder. Any help? The covers load in fine (most of the time), so I don't know why the backdrops aren't taking.

Can you post debug log files? Moving Pictures should look for new backdrops on startup for any movies currently missing one. If a movie already has a backdrop it will not look in your local file system for a new one.

That's exactly the problem - it wasn't looking for the new one. Thank you sir!
