Since you seem to have it all set up very nicely with art etc. I'm assuming you have a fair bit of experience with Plex. Im considering getting a MacMini (im aware the spec is a couple yrs old now) specifically for HD movies. MKV at 720 and 1080p. A lot of ppl say there are problems getting it to play smoothly, others are saying it's perfect. What's been your experience? (some ppl even say Plex plays 1080p perfectly, which i found doubtful as it only uses ffdShow and ffmpeg built-in codecs.)

To my experience till now 720P MKV is great even at high bit-rates. I haven't tried 1080P as my TV is 720P (no point downloading them).

I finally got mines all organized

Did you have to rename all your library in order to get your Movies/TV Shows section all figured out like that?

Please respond, I'd really need the help.

Hi sigalakos! I have mediastream running on my machine but I cant seem to figure out how to add tv shows. I add the source with the folder containing the diff. shows but I dont get the fan art, posters, descriptions etc like you do. Any advice. Maybe a video tutorial on how to do it? Any help is much appreciated. Thanks.

I read your post on insanelymac. Thanks for sharing on how to make a cheap hackintosh media center. I currently own a Shuttle SG33G5 with a Q6600@2.7ghz, 4 GB RAM and a 8800GT running on 10.5.5 and Plex. This set up rocks. Plex rocks. I'm doing research now on using a video capture card.

Download the cover from the internet (I recommend getvideoartwork just google it) place the covers in a easy to access folder. Now find the movie without the artwork or any artwork you want to change and press the key i on your keyboard select "get thumb" then at the bottom of the list you'll see browse. Browse to your folder and find your cover. Thats all. Another cool hot key you can use about everywhere is C it's just another menu. One more is \ (right above enter) that toggles fullscreen. GL
