OK, I figured this out if anyone cares. Before I decided on using XBMC I tried using Windows Media Center for my HTPC and I used some program called Media Center Master to automatically download dvd covers. I think this program added a file called mymovies.xml to each of my movie folders. When I delete that file everything scrapes correctly and artwork gets downloaded.

Hi,
I have exactly the same problem as you had here. In regular view all of the coverart for Movies works fine, but in library mode it doesn't - same problem.
I am running a Win7 PC and an Apple TV - same issue on both.
I have all of my files on a NAS and I use MyMovies to tag them. For a scraper I have this set to IMDB.
I have looked for the flies and the DB to be deleted but cannot find/access them. On the Win machine there is nohing about thumbs in c:\program files\xbmc\userdata and I don't have an idea how to do this on the ATV.
Any help appreciated.

Perhaps you should make a screenshot of your videos file structure...

Hi again,
It looks like this fixed it, alhough there does appear to be an issue where filenames have ' or _ characters. It does not appear to be 100% of a fix, but I can manually change the 2 or 3 that it does not seem to like.
Could you point me in the right direction as to how to delete these files on the ATV ?
Many thanks for the help.
