And I'm planning to install MediaMonkey 4 on a server for it's DLNA support, but I can't have it use the Windows hdd for these types of files. Most applications don't even get installed on the Windows hdd.

Also when removing files from MediaMonkey I think it would be nice that the thumbnails in the cache to also get removed.

The location is an issue for me, it's on the Windows drive that's already full enough. Temp folder, My Documents, etc. are all on a different drive. I think this should either respect the temp folder settings or be user configurable. The latter makes sense as it's basically the same as Album Art.

I think that path is hardcoded due the possible risks of miss showing.

Video thumbnails are generated in the Application Data folder instead of the Temporary Directory. I'd prefer either the use of the Temporary Directory, the ability to configure custom folder, use the video's folder or embed the thumbnail.

Tested on skinned 1348 on XP.
