During the search with the mymovies.it sdcraper i found a lot of movies with all the metadata but without a backdrop.
If i found it in other ways how can i import into moving picture?
I tried renaming it "backdrop.jpg" and placing it into the same folder of the movie but it didn't work even if the option "search movie folders for backdrop named...." is enabled.
Thanks for your very very good work!!!

im not a hundred procent sure here, but you can probably use this syntax for naming the backdrop:

{<Movie name here>} [<IMDB Number here>].jpg

:D

hope i can help

Edit: im wrong. try this one:

It auto grabs backdrops from this folder: c:\docs&settings\all users\application data\team mp\mediaportal\thumbs\moving pictures\backdrops\fullsize\"IMDBNUMBER".jpg

It supports .jpg/.png/.bmp, and they have to be named with tt123456 (the movies imdb ID).

custom backdrops in moving pictures go in :

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Team MediaPortal\Mediaportal\thumbs\MovingPictures\Custom Backdrops
