[QUOTE="VdR, post: 708644, member: 25818"] I too consider this the biggest drawback of MP. My simple approach to this is the following: I find the appropriate cover image manually, crop and scale it as I want and put it as 'folder.jpg' in the movie folder. I set Moving Pictures to use folder.jpg and find only one cover, this way it is always the one I saved. There is manual work involved, but it is done quickly and always right. Then on my development client I check if Moving Pictures makes the right match, if not I change the title of the movie directory to make sure it does make the right match automatically. This may f.i. take adding the release year. From here all other clients will automatically add the correct movie with the right cover and fan art without manual intervention. Then I sit back, relax, watch a movie and wait for MP2 :) VdR [/QUOTE]
