I bought an LG 47LK530 HDTV and really like it. It has DLNA and USB support. I have a 2TB hard drive and have connected it both directly to the TV and via DLNA using Windows Media Player 11. Both worked well for playing MPGs and AVIs.Which one is better to use? DLNA or connecting the drive directly?ANDHow can I get a jpg to display as the movie cover art? When I use either DLNA or it connected directly, it uses the LG built in menu and it displays an icon of a film reel or in some types of movies it will show a thumbnail of the movie. I created folders for each movie and placed the jpg in the folder. I tried naming the jpg (for example for mymovie.mpg I name the jpg mymovie.jpg, mymovie.mpg.cover.jpg and mymovie.mpg.jpg) and none of these scenarios worked. In these scenarios, what displays is the movie without the cover art and a the jpg is a separate image in the folder. Is there no way to do this on my TV or is there another way to name the jpg I haven't tried?Thank you.

The LG Forum was setup by LG Mobile as a community for LG Cell Phone users. The Home Entertainment equipment is handled by a different division of LG. Unfortunately, we don't have any representation from the LG Electronics Division that visit this site....

I apologize, but I don't think you think you'll find anyone here to answer your Video questions.... You might try www.LG.com or the (800) 793-8896 Customer Service Number to see if they can assist you, Good Luck.
