Having an issue trying to set AD to use local files. I have about 25 movies that AD cannot find any disc art. I was wondering is there any way I could manually add my disc art to those movies? When I right click on the movie, "Movie Infomation" >Get Artwork>No. All I get is either Poster, Fanart, and Logo. I dont see discart. Just wondering if a movie that AD cant find a discart does that mean there's no way of manually trying to add a local one? I also try placing the discart.png in the same movie folder and re launching AD and still cant view the discart? Am I missing something. All my movies arts are stored locally in each movie folder.

I had to select yes when in get artwork, it will then get your local discart image.

Finally figure out why I wasnt able to select my discart. Its turns out that my discart.png has to be name "disc" Once the file is name "disc" I was able to add it manually.

Just wondering about AD, is there a way that it will update new extrathumb art on the fly? What Im doing right now is manually going in and replacing the old thumbs with new ones that I want to display. In order for AD to update these thumbs what I need to do is rename the movie folder from "Cape Fear" ---> "Cape Fear (1991)" and then do a Update Library. The problem is that I have to do this to all Movies that i want to edit. I also have to go back to load the logo and disc art for each of the new movie. I try hitting the refresh button under Movie Info, but it keeps the same old thumb (even tho there are no longer in the extrathumb folder) instead of showing the new one. Any shortcut I could do to have AD reflect the new thumbs?
