I've installed game browser on emby for WMC, and my server but how can I add cover art to my games?

Hi, documentation isn't great because games are largely a community addon, but the folder structure is almost exactly like movies. so if you have a folder for a game, adding folder.jpg should work. Let us know if this helps. Thanks.

I added a folder.jpg image next to the disc's iso file, and that worked for providing cover art for individual games but I would still like to change a few things.  For eye candy, there isn't a backdrop while I'm navigating the video games tab, or while I'm browsing games inside that particular tab.  How would I add a backdrop to that part of emby for WMC?

 

Another problem I'm running into is that Emby doesn't see the actual Wii game ISO file while I'm navigating through the emby for wmc menu

Backdrops can be added the same way you added the primary image. Backdrop.jpg backdrop1.jpg etc.

Do you know of any plugins or any kind of software that looks for game art, and downloads it autmatically from the internet.  I am looking for the same kind of metadata management for my games that emby provides for movies and tv
