From 7MC to MiniDLNA for movies

All-

Great to be back, if only for a little bit! I abandoned 7MC a couple of years ago, and never got around to moving my legacy movie library over to a new system. My current plan is to use MiniDLNA to serve up the collection to a few Rokus. So far, I have succeeded in transcoding from VIDEO_TS formats in 7MC to a flat MP4 structure. It works great! My only issue is artwork - I have none that migrated. Has anyone found a way to automate the translation of artwork files inside my movie folders to artwork files that MiniDLNA understands?

TIA

Windows command "robocopy" sure seems to do the trick! You can copy directory trees and even specific files in that tree. Awesome.

Sure do miss this community... Till next time boys.
