\DVDNAME\VIDEO_TS\VIDEO_TS-fanart

Does XBMC MC account for this when creating the fanart for DVD`s or does it just put links into the .nfo for the fanart. If the latter how does it work after that, once imported to XBMC, Plex etc... is the fanart downloaded then or have I got it all completely wrong.
Asking as I have not been able to scrape any fanart with MC due to the server issues so cannot see exactly waht it does.
Thanks,

To be honest I didn't have no idea how XBMC deals with nfo files and DVD folders. Since I've had no feedback to the contrary I assume I got it right
I used the following format.
DVD folder/VIDEO_TS.nfo
DVD folder/VIDEO_TS.tbn
DVD folder/VIDEO_TS-trailer.avi (or mpg, wmv, etc)
DVD folder/VIDEO_TS-fanart.jpg
The origional site for fanart, moviebackdrops.com is unfortunately no more, but the fanart has been moved to http://www.meligrove.com. I'll add this shortly.
