How to prevent backdrop folders?

I only want WD TV Live to show the methatumb (or whatever it’s named) and the xml files, no background images, it uses waaaay too long time (resources?) to load and show the pictures. How can I do that? If I delete them it will rebuild them (I have turned on Nanual discovery) so that’s not an option. Is there any way to make the box work faster? I’m wondering if they are using a seriously slow CPU, or if the programmers actualy don’t know squat about programing.

The WD TV Live Streaming has a Sigma Designs SMP8670AD 700 MHz processor with 512MB of DDR2 memory from Nanya.

p.s. you’re in the wrong forum  (the WDTV Live & Live Plus does not feature “backdrops”)

All your previous posts are in the the WDTV Live Streaming forums … so i dunno why you decided to post here ?

Sorry, didn’t notice.
