Movies thumbnails

[seedmaster]

My video library thumbnails look great, including the MKV's and X264's

My movie library thumbnails look like this

Cant figure out what to do except put them all in the video lib folder

It may look like this :.


If you put every movie in a separate folder , get the album art , place it in the folder , and name it Folder.jpg . Like this :


How to get the album art? you may scan your DVD cover inlay card , you may download it from google image search , or there are some Media Center extentions that can obtain metadata online .... I am not that familiar with the last option . I do it manually .

EDIT : I do one more thing . I edit the album art size to a square resolution , so that it look even cool in explorer, too

You will end up with synopsis and info on your films as well as cover art for your movies - i expect in videos the view you have of each file is just a screen shot of something within the movie. Follow that guide and you'll get proper dvd style film art for your thumbnails.

Not sure it'll do TV programmes but give it a try
