[QUOTE="Tirade, post: 240420, member: 65652"] So glad I stumbled onto this thread. I downloaded the tool and it worked great! One thing I noticed that might be an easy fix/change/option... In my AMC database all of my paths to my DVD rips ended with \VIDEO_TS (i.e. \\MediaServer\e\Movies\300\VIDEO_TS) This works fine with MyFilms (as it considers the TS as an extension and knows to look for the video file in that directory). When I ran AMC Updater is ignore all of those paths and used its own (the same path only it added the VIDEO_TS.IFO at the end). This obviously created double entries so my DB grew from 300 movies to 600 and all of the new movies obviously contained very little data and would need to be updated. My problem is that Im slowly transcoding all of my DVD rips to h.264 MP4. I will then have to manually edit each entry in AMC to end with the moviename.mp4 file. Is it possible to allow a checkbox in AMC Updater so that it can just use the path without the file name? That would be a huge help not just for me but anyone who eventually decides to transcode their movies into a more manageable format. [/QUOTE]
