Yepper!

PROBLEM: 1700 video files, scrolling with fanart on was intollerable.

SOLUTION: Read the thread (... ok, well, most of the thread), and then used the info at How to increase the speed of XBMC Dharma with NVIDIA ION GPU's by using *.dds fanart instead of *.jpg fanart files

Even added my own .02 to update the bat file for Win7 64-bit users.

RESULTS: On my Zotec MB with Nvidia graphics, I am now able to turn background fanart on again.

Scolling is smooth!
