Hi,

i got several films that consist of two AVI files. How can i prevent the database search from adding one film twice? :confused:

For example I have one folder called "Great New Film" and within there are two files called "Great New Film CD1.avi" and "Great New Film CD2.avi". Can I somehow tell MP to search only for an IMDB entry with the parent folder name?

Thanks for your help and keep up the great work!

if you rename your files (using your example) For example

Great New Film-CD2.avi and Great New Film-CD1.avi

Media portal will stack them together

so there will only be one film in the database
when you play the movie you get the option of which disk
and when cd1 ends it will start cd2

.cd1 or .cd2 didn't work ... had to be -CD1 and -CD2 at the end. will test with 3/4 cds and see if that works tomorrow.
