Newb question wdt live SMP

The WD last I checked will do folder thumbs even season thumbs along with episode snapshots. Backdrops if I recall correctly are a theme with thumbgen thing. They use the photo viewer settings. It’s all kind of fuzzy though as I have apps that auto grab content for me and provide the metadata along with all the art should I need it. I imagine is WD updates the device or the hub they might go down the xbmc route a little more than they have and maybe offer a way to offload it onto a an sd or msd card and make it a little more robust.
