Moving Pictures will only look in the root folder for your cover. The wording in the GUI maybe is a little misleading, but if you have a DVD on your hard drive, it will not look in the video_ts folder, it will look in the folder above that. For example:

D:\Movies\Backdraft\video_ts\VTS_01_0.IFO
D:\Movies\Backdraft\folder.jpg

That would be the naming convention that it needs to automatically pick up the cover. We may in the future add a recursive search here, especially if this comes up again, but it would not be for a while. We are trying to get 0.7 out the door as soon as possible, so this would probably get pushed back at least until 0.8.

As for the default backdrop, yes you can change it. You will have to modify the movingpictures.xml file though as it is a skin setting and not something directly controlled by the plug-in. You need to look for an <image> control that has the file background.jpg specified for the file. Just delete it altogether from the skin file. Does this make sense?
