[QUOTE="kiwijunglist, post: 550535, member: 76888"] Could you make an option so instead of using the filename it uses the folder name to search for the movie. I have my movies like this \root folder\moviename (year)\filename.ext eg. \28 Weeks Later (2007)\filename.avi \Die Hard (1995)\filename.mkv Alternatively you could use the moving pictures.db3 database file. It would look for a trailer for each movie in the database. Then it would either Option 1 - Save the movie as trailer.mov in the same folder as the movie (it would get the movie folder location from the database) Option 2 - Save the movie as moviename.mov in a custom trailer directory (it would get moviename from the database) And even cooler way of doing it would be to Open moving pictures.db3 database file Look for a trailer for each movie title in the database. Create a folder called \trailers\ Create a subfolder for each trailer it finds, and save the file as \trailers\moviename\trailer.mov If it finds a trailer, then use the database info to copy the dvd cover image to \trailers\moviename\folder.jpg If it finds a trailer, then use the database info to copy the fanart image to \trailers\moviename\backdrop.jpg If it finds a trailer. then use the database info to create a file called trailer.txt, that contains the imdb url (this helps with moving pictures import) This way it's really easy to import the trailers info moving pictures and create a category filter called trailers.
