[QUOTE="NickName, post: 799138, member: 21675"] I'm sorry I have no idea. MP will use art it finds alongside movie files as long as the art has exactly the same name as the movie file. If the movie is in a sub-folder, you can name the picture "folder.jpg" and the folder will be displayed in MP with a picture. The problem with this method is that when you click on the picture in MP, it will open the folder and display the movie file. If you want that movie to be represented by a picture, you need a 2nd copy with the same name as the movie picture. Example: \Movies\Sponge bob\Sponge Bob.avi \Movies\Sponge bob\folder.jpg \Movies\Sponge bob\Sponge Bob.jpg The above method also means to play a movie, you have to click twice. The first time on the folder to open it and the second time on the movie file to play it. FYI. The method I mentioned that I use is so easy that my kids have been able to pick and play their own movies since they were 2 and half years old! :-) Am I right in assuming that you do not have your movies in the same folder/drive as the art?
