[QUOTE="2BitSculptor, post: 423011, member: 65661"] It's pretty simple to get fanart from a single local folder (within the skin\media folder) but more of a challenge to get it from anywhere else, especially split up between the several hundred movie folders. Don't think there is an easy way of doing it. It's easy enough to rename all your fanart files to the IMDB number or name of the video and put them in one folder... just time consuming. I don't think the team has redone the way MP handles fanart specifically, so it becomes pretty memory intensive, loading all the fanart into RAM (If I'm not mistaken). MovingPictures handles fanart differently, as does MPTV-Series, so RAM is used more efficiently. I decided to forgo fanart use in MyVideos until some kind of a 'Fanart' plugin is created by someone to handle the paths and RAM use for use in MP.
