It doesn't require any action. As soon as you view that image XBMC will start encoding it as a dds. Next time you load the image it will use the dds version if it exists. It takes a good 20s per image on Atom however, so it will be a while before everything becomes smoother.
Personally I quickly scrolled through every movie/music/tv fanart/poster/album in my library, waited several hours for CPU to drop back to normal usage level, and then restarted XBMC.
(You should probably move further detailed questions to the main thread on the topic, linked above).
thanks, i will look into this.
