    Hi Buddy

    I had the same problem with some movies pulling in foreign covers, I used to just replace the folder.jpg and it would work but as you have also discovered it now doesn’t seem to work.  You may want to try this, it worked for me.

    Find the artwork you want to use, save it to your desktop as folder.jpg (I then right click the new jpg and change properties to ‘hidden’)

    Then move this file to the relevant movie folder which will overwrite the folder.jpg currently there.

    Then go to C:ProgramDataYammmDvdCoverCache (you may need to enable the view for hidden files in folder and search options.

    Locate the artwork that is being used in media center (that you have just overwritten with your own) and delete it. Restart media center and your new artwork should now appear.

    Thats how I’ve done it but there may be a quicker way, I only replaced a few so didn’t take long – may be different if you want to change a lot

    ** Just had a thought – I had mine set up to not download the original artwork prior to resizing so not sure if having a ‘folder.original.jpg’ in the movie folder would affect my way of doing it.

    That should work. I’ll update so it syncs the file across if you do replace folder.jpg
