Hi again.

Now this may seem like a very basic question, especially for XBMC, but still, I would like to know how we view preview images in XBMC of the video files that are in the disc. Normally, I would just burn the video files (AVI, MPG etc) on the DVD+_R disc as "Data DVD" files, in Nero. The name of those video files would then appear in XBMC, within the Video tab in XBMC's Main Menu and from there I could easily select and play them. However, I wish to know how we can have preview images for those video files. I did some searching around but could not find a suitable answer to my query, hence my posting here. So if someone could explain to me how we can add preview images to the corresponding video, I'd really appreciate it. Also, by preview image, I mean something like a DVD cover of the respective movie to appear once the movie/video in question, has been selected or high-lighted.

Also, will it matter if the dimensions of the DVD covers' JPG files differ? Will they appear as the same dimensions that are default by XBMC to configure or will the preview images' size vary?

Thanks for the help.
