Hi again,

I have managed to get My Movies working in conjunction with MMC. My problem is now loading DVD files I already have on my hard drive in to the My Movies directory. Also if I save the cover art in the folder containing the ts files will this show on the My Movies directory.

Help me please as I am getting very close to throwing this system out the window.

The best way to have the DVDs on the hard drive is each DVD in its own folder with the audio_ts and video_ts folders in that.

E.G:
D:\DVDs\Kill Bill Vol 1\
D:\DVDs\Kill Bill Vol 2\

And if you put the cover art in the folder under the DVD title and call it folder.jpg then you will get the covers showing.
Using above example: D:\DVDs\Kill Bill Vol 1\folder.jpg.

Opinions are my own and not the views of my employer.
