    It has to be
    C:\Program Files\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\Thumbs\Fan Art

    In Vista MP stores the thumbnail (and log etc.) files to a different folder... can't remember wich one.

    Thanks for the reply. I was able to see the Thumbs folder through advanced search. But there still is no Folder called Fanart. I have also tried it on Windows XP now and I couldn't find it anywhere. Do I need to enable it somewhere?

    You can just create it yourself. Then just drop the fan art photos in that folder leaving the filename of the photo intact.

    MP2 uses the same TV engine as MP1, so it must work also with MP2, you just need to select TVE3 and not TVE3.5 in the installer. MP2 also supports a 3rd TV engine TVMosaic, but this is configured web-based and I can not tell you, if this works with your hardware.

    Please check the wiki. I never take online sources but perform offline imports. You can use external tools for that and change all data including poster. Also the import speed is much faster + the local data are kept forever, even MP2 is removed. To overwrite only some movies you need to remove them once from the share, place an...

    You can always try, select any window, turn off the Media Portal, change the ID of the selected one to the desired one (plugin) and check.
