[QUOTE="hafblade, post: 869936, member: 110423"] Don't know if this is possible but I guarantee you that you will have a much much easier time in the future if you sort it into subfolders. I'm using htpc applications now over 6 years and when I have learned something in this time it is that you should stick with the standard. If you stick with the standard you will be able to use all your data in almost all possible htpc applications like MediaPortal, XBMC, MediaPortal 2, Windows Media Center, Windows Media Player, DVB Viewer and so on and so on... So there is no absolute standard but there are some "normal" structures for movie / series folders like the following: Movies: Moviename (year)/Moviename (year).<ext> (movie) Moviename (year)/folder.jpg Moviename (year)/Moviename (year).jpg Moviename (year)/Moviename (year).nfo Moviename (year)/fanart.jpg Moviename (year)/backdrop.jpg ... Series: Series/s01e01 - <title>.<ext> Series/s01e02 - <title>.<ext> Series/s01e03 - <title>.<ext> ... Series/s02e01 - <title>.<ext> Series/s02e02 - <title>.<ext> ... And so on. @Note for me :) I think it's time for me to write some standard file naming etc. tutorial. I wanted to write it now for long time. Perhaps I could do it this weekend. [/QUOTE]
