Hi,

I have a collection of mp4/h.264/aac videos. I have a personalized thumbnail for each video.
How to save the previews of the videos when you format the pc?

If I have a backup of my library it is sufficient? (file/library/backup library)

I have selected a concrete frame for each video for thumbnail and I want save this information for it won't be lost.

Any solution?
Thanks!

I've investigated and I found this directories:

C:\Users\USER\AppData\Roaming\J River\Media Center 16\Data\ScreenGrabs
C:\Users\USER\AppData\Roaming\J River\Media Center 16\Thumbnails

If I format my pc I need save this two directories?
If I do:

0) format my pc and install windows
1) install MC
2) restore library from .zip file
3) copy this 2 directories
4) I keep my previous cover art

This it is correct? I will keep my thumbnails?

Another question. I have all thumbnails in jpg files. I can use this jpg files for restore my thumbnails without make a backup of this 2 directories?
Another question. I have cover files embedded into mp4 video files (mp4/h.264/aac). I edited with mp3tag program. There any way to import the metadata cover art to library when I import new mp4 files to MC? I ask this because MC use a random image rather than to use the embedded image inside mp4 file.

Thanks!
