How can u have the large backdrop pics setup for each movie i have. Like if i download or make backdrops for all 150 movies i have how can i make them pop up for each folder when i scroll. I really like the look would love to have it for all my movies. Thanks for any help and sorry if i just missed it when i searched.

That's called 'Fanart'.

Storing and naming -

Movies/Terminator.mkv
Movies/Terminator-fanart.jpg

Or

Movies/Terminator/Terminator.mkv
Movies/Terminator/fanart.jpg

Get them for here - http://www.themoviedb.org/movie

Or the easier option is to use the Library mode so they get scraped automatically for you. Guide here - http://wiki.xbmc.org/?title=Video_Library

So i have each movie in a seperate folder with name and date. The files i had already i attempted to rename them say baseketball.avi and the fanart baseketball-fanart.jpg but when i navigate in xmbc when i highlight basketball the background image doesnt change what am i doing wrong

Well I think i got it to work but i had to take the movies out of the folders. and just put them all in a single folder is that correct. Or is there a way to get this to work inside the folders

If they're in their own folder you need to set the scraper to 'Use folder names for lookup'.

That's got to be the third time to day written that. Rolleyes
