[QUOTE="PalmBayChuck, post: 235565, member: 48095"] I have been naming my files exactly as the are listed on IMDB. In fact, I copy and paste the name directly even with the date so that the all my movies are named exactly like IMDB, but I find that IMDB very often makes mistakes, or rather the MP IMDB plug-in selects the wrong information from the IMDB database. Is there an optimal naming strategy to assure that the database lookup succeeds? Ultimately, I would like to get all my filenames perfect then have MP do an IDBM scan of all my movie directories over night. At this time, I have about 400 movies. Thanks for any help. Im sure others have asked this question, but I have been unsuccessful finding an answer. [/QUOTE]
