[QUOTE="thlucas, post: 1020043, member: 111098"] To be clear, the images are stored in the same data location as the movie information XML. The data location can be either a custom folder, or where the movie file (ie VIDEO_TS.IFO) resides. The folder location as well as file names can contain movie information parameters such as title, imdb id, and year, so any of the following structures are possible: Scenario 1 - where the movie file resides. C:\Movies\Cars (2009)\MovingPictures.xml C:\Movies\Cars (2009)\Folder.jpg C:\Movies\Cars (2009)\Backdrop.jpg C:\Movies\Cars (2009)\Cover Alt 001.jpg C:\Movies\Cars (2009)\Cover Alt 002.jpg C:\Movies\Cars (2009)\Cover Alt 003.jpg C:\Movies\Cars (2009)\VIDEO_TS\VIDEO.IFO Scenario 2 - custom data location with movie info in seperate folders. C:\Movie Data Backup\Cars (2009)\MovingPictures.xml C:\Movie Data Backup\Cars (2009)\Folder.jpg C:\Movie Data Backup\Cars (2009)\Backdrop.jpg C:\Movie Data Backup\Cars (2009)\Cover Alt 001.jpg C:\Movie Data Backup\Cars (2009)\Cover Alt 002.jpg C:\Movie Data Backup\Cars (2009)\Cover Alt 003.jpg Scenario 3 - custom data location with movie info in file names in 1 folder. C:\Movie Data Backup HTPC1\Cars (2009).xml C:\Movie Data Backup HTPC1\Cars (2009) Folder.jpg C:\Movie Data Backup HTPC1\Cars (2009) Backdrop.jpg C:\Movie Data Backup HTPC1\Cars (2009) Cover Alt 001.jpg C:\Movie Data Backup HTPC1\Cars (2009) Cover Alt 002.jpg C:\Movie Data Backup HTPC1\Cars (2009) Cover Alt 003.jpg Hope it clears things up.
