Help with Media Centre please

[MrMikey]

I am trying to get my movie library in Widows Media Centre (Windows 7) to show the movie "art" or "cover" in WMC when I browse the library. Absolutely no luck in getting it to show the images.

Trying to follow advice from a few sites, I have created seperate folders for each movie, put the image I want to use for each movie into the specific folder and renamed it "Folder.jpg". Still no joy

Any boffin have advice for me please??

I have got the "Movies" artwork etc. sorted out, but I can't seem to get my music to play using Mediabrowser. My music plays perfectly using WMC own music player but not through the Mediabrowser (even though it shows in the browser)

Second that.

MrMikey -> http://community.mediabrowser.tv/permalinks/609/music-and-itunes-plugin

Read that, at the bottom is how to download and setup the latest plugin. Don't add the music as a vf like you do with the movies.

+1. It takes a bit of tweaking to set up the way you want it but it is awesome!

Which ones are those? I use Media Browser because of the XBOX 360 funtionality.

Meedios is a good example, download that and try and get that working. You need to tweak till you blue in the face and it still does not work.

there are others like XBMC, OML, MM3(not free) etc
