"folder.jpg" not working.

Running 6.0.34 on Linux. I've tried using "Folder.jpg" and "folder.jpg"...neither works. The thumbnails for each individual video file works fine, but the folder thumbnail just refuses to be displayed. Is there some setting that I'm missing?? Please help. Thanks.

It only displays images where there is a relevant file, not for folders themselves. The behaviour you are describing is what I'd expect.

So...then what's the point of a "folder.jpg" ???

If you have one video file per folder, "Folder.jpg" works nicely, and is what other programs expect so works well for compatibility.
