[QUOTE="milhouse, post: 318155, member: 26653"] In config, you can go to Movies->Database, then go to the Editor tab. You can edit or add movie information right there. I add the movie title, click Find (which queries the information from IMDB), and then edit it to be what I want it to be. I went around and around on this. Your tastes may vary, but I'll tell you what I used to do, and what I do now. Originally, I used DVD Shrink to combine all the discs of a series into a single ISO. I removed all the menus et al, and left just the episodes. Each season would be a single ISO, then I would add a movie to the database (as described above) for each season. So my movie list would have "Futurama (Seas 1)", "Futurama (Seas 2)", etc. This worked pretty well, really. Then I found the TV Series plugin. I LOVE the TV Series plugin. I went to every TV Series ISO I had, opened the ISO in DVD Shrink, and saved EACH EPISODE as a folder. So Futurama/01x01 would have the vob and ifo for the first episode. It was a lot of work to break up the DVDs like that, but, in my opinion, well worth it, just because the TV Series plugin is that cool. (After I had them set up this way, of course, I deleted the seasons from the My Videos database through the editor.) [/QUOTE]
