Hello,

this is a probably basic question, but the following code doesn't compile:

----
\setupbackgrounds[page][background={Bkg}]

\defineoverlay[Bkg][\useMPgraphic{Bkg}]

\startuseMPgraphic{Bkg}
 externalfigure "hacker.png";
\stopuseMPgraphic

\starttext

\stoptext

Taco has already answered the question, but if you just want to insert the image as a background, there is no need to do so via MP. The following also works:

\setupexternalfigures[location={local,global,default}]
\setupbackgrounds[page][background={Bkg}]

\defineoverlay[Bkg][{\externalfigure[hacker.png][width=\overlaywidth,
height=\overlayheight]}]

\starttext
  Ahoj
\stoptext
