I am currently using Windows Media Player 12 to stream WMV and AVI files to my Xbox 360. I would like to add cover art to my files in Windows Media Player so that when I browse on my xbox I can see cover art. Currently WMP defaults to show an image from the film at some point 5-10 seconds in.

How do i get Windows Media Player 11 or 12 to recognize an image as cover art.

I have seen files with images imbedded in them, but i dont know how to create them.

any help is appreciated

This is supposed to work on an HTPC, although I can't tell you how well as I don't use WMP.

Bump! I have basically the same question. Anyone know how to get WMP 11 to recognize an image as video cover art and stream that over a network?
