[QUOTE="Jakobkraft, post: 687612, member: 108890"] I was previously using the Media Browser plugin in WMC, but it did not play well with PowerDVD10 when it came to Blu-Ray ISO playback -- MediaPortal does WAY better with the whole ISO mounting process and ALWAYS plays the file I select, even if there is a physical disc in the drive (this always confused PowerDVD in Media Browser, for some reason). So many thanks to the MP developers for that! The only thing I'm missing now is rotating movie backdrops when using Moving Pictures. Not really sure how the whole Fanart thing works, but what I've generally done in the past is use Media Center Master to grab all movie data, movie.xml file, multiple backdrops, etc., from the usual sources. And when browsing my movies in Media Browser plugin for WMC the backdrops would automatically rotate. Here is a screenshot of a movie folder I have: [url]http://img530.imageshack.us/f/sincitys.jpg/[/url] Moving Pictures imports the movie but ignores the backdrops, as shown here: [url]http://img266.imageshack.us/f/movingpicturesbackdropf.jpg/[/url] It seems like Moving Pictures is just taking one backdrop -- either from my local movie folder or from online. It ignores all the backdrops I already have saved inside the movie folder. Is there a way to make Moving Pictures use the backdrops I have already saved locally? Or does Moving Pictures rely only on the Fanart plugin for that? Still trying to figure this all out - any help would be very appreciated. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
