If i'am browsing me videos via file structure view i see the default folder icons for each directory. Iv'e tried to assign a unique jpg to the folders/directories, but without luck. Regardsless if i use folder.jpg and or directoryname.jpg

I'am also wondering were the nice DVD Logo is defined. It is the default for my dvd drive.

See picture for details:

Maybe someone can give a hint how this images "should" be handled by MP, so that i can get a clue if i face a bug or a mistake?

    You should be able to place a file called folder.jpg inside the folder that you are browsing and mp should display that. The icon for the dvd drive is stored in your skin's folder.

    Hmmm. This is exactly what i did. I've created a file like "folder.jpg" and stored it inside the directory. But it is not displayed, as you can see in the images above :(

    I'am unsure if this is a bug or a problem with my config. Can you confirm, that it works in your enviroment as expected?

    Thanks for your reply.

    I Have the same prob on the first folder of every media type, can only see my folder.jpg in list view as the little icon. I changed my directory tree just to get round it for myself. Instead of having 10 folders listed in my video config on media portal I made a HDD folder to monitor (so just got the one video folder on MP config) and then placed all the other folders in it. That way its the second folder in the directory and I get folder.jpgs displayed for my 10 folders which is what I wanted. I just changed the default folder icon in the skin for a HDD icon. That way when i choose videos I get a DVD icon and one HDD icon which looks nice, then just select HDD and I get all my folders with their images. Best compromise for me but would like to know if there is a proper fix for this bug
