You can specify your asset folders under the `settings` attribute `asset_directory`: ## Requirements and configuration
If you want to apply artwork to movies and shows using the asset directory, the Kometa asset pipeline *requires* that your movies and shows are in folders of their own. The name that Kometa will use to look up the asset poster for a movie is the folder that the movie file is located in *on disk*, and each movie/show needs to have a unique asset name.
In other words, this works:
```
movies/Star Wars (1977)/Star Wars (1977) Bluray-1080p.mkv
movies/Star Trek The Motion Picture (1979)/Star Trek The Motion Picture (1979) Bluray-1080p.mkv
movies/The Empire Strikes Back (1980)/The Empire Strikes Back (1980) Bluray-1080p.mkv
```
while this *WILL NOT*:
```
movies/Star Wars (1977) Bluray-1080p.mkv
movies/Star Trek The Motion Picture (1979) Bluray-1080p.mkv
movies/The Empire Strikes Back (1980) Bluray-1080p.mkv
```
If your movies and shows are not in individual folders, setting art using the asset directory will not work and you can stop here.
