Assigning folder icon?

[katates]

Hey, It would be a nice feature to find icons for movies and assing them automatically.

Then we can make a context menu for this and it would be awesome.

For example;
Folder name is: Despicable.Me.2.2013.DTS.1080p-PHD
Search for Despicable Me 2 icons. Download the first result then assign it to the folder.

Is it possible?

Yes like that. Download the artwork and assing the poster as folder icon maybe :/

Yep, there's scripts that download artwork, and then windows will show you that artwork in the folder view. I think if you name some image folder.jpg windows explorer will use that as folder icon. Not sure, you can look into that on google.

Its downloading png jpg files. Not downloading ico files.
If it finds and downloads ico files rest of it could be easy.
But it's almost impossible to convert png files into 256x256 128x128 icons.

Just use the movie poster image rename it to folder.jpg so Explorer will use it as folder image. Looks good to me.
