question, is it possible if you have jpg's on the folders of the flix you stream thru xbmc to be viewable? i was almost positive an older build (months back) allowed this to be seen. (?)

You might have better luck posting this question at the XBMC forums.

Yeah man what i just posted should work. At least it works for me. If you have a jpg in the folder on your comp labled Folder.jpg it should show on xbmc automatically. A lot of times the image on your comp will be labeled as something else so it will show on the computer but not the box. To make it show on xbmc it has to be Folder.jpg. If you want an individual video to have an image you can do nameofmovie.tbn but it is just as easy to use the imdb for that. Hope this helps.

I know what you mean.........

XBMSP network path has all my movies (avi's & mpg's). I used to press scan and the jpgs would be downloaded from IMDB and automatically show them for the correct movie.

This has stopped on my XBMC as well. Sad
