[QUOTE="RoChess, post: 542715, member: 18896"] Wife is still hogging HTPC, so I can't test, but would: \movies\three kingdoms; resurrection of the dragon (2008)\three_kingdoms_720P.avi work? Not even sure if the folder takes precedent over filename in those situations. Otherwise you could try: \movies\three kingdoms (2008)\three_kingdoms_resurrection_of_the_dragon_2008_720P.avi Of course if you are going to rename, you might as well include the Asian title :D I'll have to dig more into how the scraper works on a technical level, because if an extra lookup step is possible, then google might be a solution. [url=http://www.google.com/search?complete=0&hl=en&q=site%3Awww.imdb.com%2Ftitle+three+kingdoms]site:www.imdb.com/title three kingdoms - Google Search[/url] comes up with the right movie even without the release year, and it gets the correct one (listed first) for many other Asian English AKA titles I just tried. It might not be 100%, I only tried 5 movie titles, but definatly looks like an option that would help. [/QUOTE]
