So for instance, I have a "Back to the future Trilogy", with three folders inside and some art. In this case, its logo.png, fanart.jpg, poster.jpg and folder.jpg. These last two are the same picture, but I can't remember which one works!!

Once your art is set up like this, go to the artwork-downloader addon and into its settings. Turn OFF all three sources under "providers" and turn ON use local files under "advanced".

Then go into "programs" and run it. I have found that this is the only way I can get all my art to show correctly. XBMC on its own seems quite capable of adding the cover art and fanart, but I had issues with disc art/clearart until I started doing this.

This works for me but YMMV.

By "artwork-downloader", are you referring to Movie Set Artwork Automator? If so, I don't see a section in its settings called providers. I assumed it was automator based on the post just above this by mlaggner.

A bit of background on my setup.

My directories are all individual movie folders. There aren't any folders for sets. I used tmm to identify which movies go in which sets. Each movie that belongs in a set has images called movieset-poster.jpg and movieset-fanart.jpg. I believe this was done with the default setting in tmm.

All of this comes right into XBMC, but the movie set folders are without graphics. (some have graphics, but it's just the poster from one of the movies in the set).

I have the plugin.movieset loaded and the addon Movie Set Artwork Automator installed.

I think my problem is the setup is so flexible I can't get my mind around all of it at once to sort out the settings that work.
