How do I get a BluRay box cover to show up for my offline BDs instead of DVD box? I've created dummy .avi files on my movie folder, but they show up with DVD box cover. Appending BluRay (MovieName.BluRay.avi), BD, to the name doesn't work, and neither does using .m2ts or .mkv extension, or putting them all in a folder called "bluray".

DVD / Blu-ray cases are shown based on the video-resolution of the file.
720p or up will get a blu-ray case, everything else a DVD case.
creating a .nfo file (containing at least video resolution info) for your offline movies may work....

I created custom 480p and 1080p "please insert disk" video clips that play when I select an offline DVD or Bluray. That also forces the covers to show up according to media, so it's working nicely.
The only nagging problem I have is that movie length for all movies shows as 0 minutes, since the clip I made is only 23 seconds long. Is there a way to force XBMC/Transparency to use IMDB/MovieDB length instead of video file length?
