With 180 posts under your belt you are ripping way at the 'new' part of userSmile

Movie genre: There's the default settings... most of the graphics have been tied up in a special format. Depending on the O/S you're using it could be in different locations... why not just mouse around a bit looking for jpegs or pngs.

I got around this a bit with 'file mode' having my video collection divided between TV and Movies each having their own drive, then having sub folders according to genre, each with it's own icon and backdrop... So in file mode everything is pretty orderly... movie mode... I search with playlists, browse recent, etc... I don't use the genre function in library mode, it has too much stuff.

Sets: That's a bit more difficult, XBMC has no real easy way of making sets (that will change in the future so they tell me) I've gotten around this nicely with XWMM movie manager (uses the browser to list your files and you get to tick off which are in what set) but I wouldn't fall over myself to use it... bugs abound. I'm not sure where the set list file is located... but I did see it in the Wiki somewhere. The other Media Managers have the ability to save sets too...
