cover.jpg when not every movie has his own folder (1 Viewer)

[BigBear]

hi guys,

i got all my movies in one big folder... now i used jmcentires App to Copy the Artwork (thanks for creating that by the way!) to copy all backdrops and covers in that folder ("moviename".cover.jpg / "moviename".backdrop.jpg).

Is there any whay that Moving Pictures can use these covers and backdrops? In the config screen it seems it can only use files named cover.jpg and backdrop.jpg (or bmp etc).

Id appreciate any tips.

thanks!

P.S. I got the same Problem with nfo files. They are named "moviename".nfo and also in the big folder with all the movies.

AW: cover.jpg when not every movie has his own folder

I'm also interrested in the answer.

On the Importer Settings tab enable "Search movie Folder for Cover Art" and add the following pattern:

%filename%.cover.jpg

You can divide multiple possible patterns with a pipe | character if you still want cover.jpg to work.
