[QUOTE="felix_clerc, post: 683318, member: 99109"] I will try the following and post my results once done (might take a few days, sorry). A work around could be to use symlinks to create dummy files with 1 or 2 episodes only pointing to the iso with more. The drawback is that the iso file will have to be mounted at each new episode, and that I will have to use the menu of the mounted iso to pick up the one I want, but for the time being this may work. It requires vista, seven or server 2008. I currently have an iso of albator 78, with 7 episodes. I will rename it as "Albator 78 - 1x01.iso" Then I will open a cmd as admin and run: mklink "Albator 78 - 1x02.iso" "Albator 78 - 1x01.iso" mklink "Albator 78 - 1x03.iso" "Albator 78 - 1x01.iso" ... Or, in one line: for %f in (2 3 4 5 6 7) do mklink "Albator 78 - 1x0%f.iso" "Albator 78 - 1x01.iso" And then repeat with the next iso files, renaming the one with episodes 8 to 15 as "Albator 78 - 1x08.iso" and creating new links for the next episodes. Note that this should work with any kind of files conataining more than 2 episodes, still requiring the user to browse its file if not wanting to see the first one. And of course, this means the watched flag might need to be manually set... My 2 cents contribution, comments welcome. Felix [/QUOTE]
