I ripped all my DVDs to my movies folder so as to access them via Front Row. For easier browsing in finder i copy-pasted the DVD covers from google image search to the icons of the movie files. Very nice feature though. It *was* available in Tiger. I ripped all my DVDs to my movies folder so as to access them via Front Row.

You will get a black field instead. http://www.reales.cc/coverflowbug.m4v What I do is save the JPEG and drop it into Img2icns to make a Folder Icon and copy/paste icons. This way it will work with up to 512x512 and it's pretty cool for movies. That trick will not work if you are using Cover Flow Finder view and go up to 128×128. You will get a black field instead.
