Is there a way to display a picture for a folder? It would make it so much easier for the kids to navigate.
I see someone got this to work for a Sony TV: http://ps3mediaserver.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=56.
I wonder if my Samsung B750 supports that.

Where do you see this on a todo list? I see them working on how to add thumbnails to files with <movename>.jpg or folder.jpg but nothing for the folder itself. The lack of this feature makes it very hard for most of my household to use it (kids + grandparents).

It's being investigated, but even if it's implemented by Mezzmo, unless the device supports this feature, it won't work and from what I saw, not that many devices will actually show a custom picture for the folder (at least not many older devices will).

I would love to see that as a feature!
